There were 53,000 at Memorial Stadium in Dinkytown for the first home game of the 1936 season. Up until the last punt the spectators had witnessed a shutout from both teams. On 4th and long, Nebraska decided to punt. The ball was on the 43 yard line and the Cornhuskers had a backup punter in the game having subbed out its first stringer earlier in the game. The punt was fielded by Bud Wilkinson who lateraled it to Andy and he returned that bitch for a touchdown to win the game.
