- Kickoff temperature of today's game was 28 degrees, tying for the fifth-coldest kickoff temperature at Memorial Stadium since 1985

- Freshman linebacker Ernest Hausmann had 12 tackles in the game, bettering his career high of 10 tackles last week against Michigan. Hausmann had eight tackles before halftime

- Freshman cornerback Malcolm Hartzog intercepted a Wisconsin pass in the second quarter for his team-leading third interception of the season. The 23-yard return on the interception was the longest by Nebraska this season. Nebraska marched 37 yards in eight plays on the ensuing drive to take a 7-0 lead.

- Receiver Trey Palmer caught an 11-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter and a 19-yard TD in the third quarter giving him a team-leading seven touchdown catches this season. It marked Palmer's first touchdowns since the Purdue game on Oct. 15 when he also had a pair of TD catches.

- With four receptions, Palmer increased his season total to 62, moving him into a tie for sixth place on the Nebraska single season receptions list. This marks the eighth 60-catch season in Nebraska history. Palmer also increased his career receptions total to 103, including his time at LSU.

- Linebacker Luke Reimer tallied nine tackles to increase his career total to 245, moving him into the top 15 on the Nebraska career tackles list.

- Junior defensive lineman Colton Feist had a career-high 10 tackles, bettering his previous career high of six tackles earlier this season against Illinois

- Junior edge rusher Garrett Nelson also had 10 tackles -- one shy of his career high -- giving Nebraska three players with double-digit tackles

- Punter Brian Buschini had a career-long 74-yard punt in the third quarter, bettering a 65-yard boot against Georgia Southern. The 74-yard punt was the seventh longest punt in Nebraska history and the longest since William Przystrup had an 84-yard punt vs. Northwestern last season

- Quarterback Casey Thompson rushed for 33 yards on 11 attempts, marking a season high in rushing yards. His previous high was 31 yards against Georgia Southern

- Thompson threw a pair of touchdown passes, marking his fifth game with multiple touchdown passes this season. Thompson has at least one TD pass in all nine games he has played in this season.

- Running back Anthony Grant had 16 carries for 29 yards in today's game. With 16 carries Grant increased his season rushing attempts to 204, making him the first Husker with 200 carries in a season since Ameer Abdullah in 2014.

- Nebraska took a 7-0 lead to the half, marking the second straight home game the Huskers have shut out an opponent in the first half (also Minnesota). Previously, Nebraska had not held a Big Ten opponent scoreless in the first half since a 2019 game at Maryland
