Tommy Armstrong Jr. didn’t leave his heart in San Francisco Saturday night. He just opened it up a little bit, so Nebraska football fans can see the beginnings of what could become a personal but wide-ranging makeover designed to help lead the Huskers to college football’s promised land in 2016.

Two years removed from holding the Gator Bowl Trophy after Nebraska’s win over Georgia, Armstrong hoisted the Foster Farms Bowl Trophy over his head after the Huskers rushed for a season-high 326 yards and reached the 500-yard total offense milestone against an 8-4 UCLA team that once was ranked among the nation’s top 10.
