Huskers Come Up Short Against No. 9 Michigan

Lincoln - In a hard-hitting four-quarter battle, a late fumble after Adrian Martinez pushed forward for a first down and the short field goal by Michigan's Jake Moody that followed produced the narrow 32-29 margin for the No. 9 Wolverines to escape from Memorial Stadium on Saturday night.

Trailing 29-26, Moody kicked his third field goal of the night from 31 yards out to tie game with three minutes left.

Nebraska took over with three minutes to cover 75 yards, but on 3rd-and-1 from its own 34, Martinez crossed the 35 and advanced to the 37.
