Official recap For the second-straight year, Kansas State did not allow a Nebraska rusher to top 100 yards, but Husker fullback Tom Rathman did his share of damage to the Wildcats anyway. Rathman ran for a game-high 84 yards and two touchdowns, the first of which was a 37-yarder that started the Huskers on their way to a 41-3 win. Junior place-kicker Dale Klein got his name on another line in the NU record book when he kicked a career-long 50-yard field goal—his 12th of the season, tying the school record.
