[Husker] OT win

[Rod Wellman]

I was at the game, and was happy that all the OT action happened in our end zone, right in front of us.  The visitor's section was on the south  side of the stadium on the west side, and there was a good concentration of Husker fans in general on the south side.  It got fairly loud when ISU was on offense in OT, so maybe that played into their choice, too.
