History

Historical Context

In 1971 the Nebraska Cornhuskers, fresh from Bob Devaney’s 1970 national title, began a 34-game home-win streak that set an NCAA record and lasted until 1974. The unbeaten 13-0 season, part of Devaney’s turnaround after his 1962 hiring, exemplified the program’s dominance and now mirrors Oregon’s current 39-game non-conference home run.
