Majors pleased with effort in loss to Nebraska

Iowa State coach Johnny Majors praised his team for a tougher defense and better effort against Nebraska, despite a 24 to 13 defeat. He noted strong rushing by Jeff Allen and passing from John Warder, but receivers dropped several balls and Nebraska’s defense pressured Warder. Brouillette averaged 44 yards on five punts as Iowa State attempted razzle dazzle to spark a late drive. Warder and Allen executed a notable 9 man convoy play, though it yielded limited gain. Iowa State falls to 1-4 in the Big Eight and visits Missouri next.
