It wasn't pretty, but Nebraska did what it had to Saturday night in a 20-3 win over Kansas at Memorial Stadium.
Former NU safety Dion Booker returned to Memorial Stadium on Saturday as part of Nebraska's Veterans Day salute. The Army first lieutenant was among 11 honorary gate sentinels -- the men and women who each week guard the gates to Nebraska's entryway onto the field.
Nebraska held Kansas to 87 total yards and five first downs, sacked quarterback Quinn Mecham six times and held the Jayhawks out of the end zone in a 20-3 victory.
