You may have to reformat this to read it properly, but here is what you
are 
looking for.

GAME #8

NEBRASKA 69
COLORADO 19


Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 22, 1983

 Top-ranked Nebraska was stymied by a well-conceived Colorado game plan
for 
30 minutes, then exploded for a Big Eight-record 48 points in the third 
quarter.  NU increased a tenuous 14-12 halftime lead to a 62-19 margin
after 
three periods before 76,268 Homecoming fans.  In the Huskers'
record-setting 
third quarter (they missed the NCAA one-quarter scoring mark by one
point), 
their seven scoring drives averaged 2.6 plays, 37 yards and 36 seconds.
The 
first three scores came within 2:24 of the second half kickoff.  Said CU

cornerback Victor Scott, "It was like someone dropped the Atom Bomb on
us." 
Mike Rozier again led the way with 19 rushes for 155 yards and four TDs.

The four scores gave him 32 career rushing TDs to set a school record.
