It was on this day in 2014 when Eichorst fired Bo Pelini, despite Nebraska beating Iowa a few days earlier. Eichorst said, "In the final analysis, I had to evaluate where Iowa was."
At the time, Iowa had 7 losing seasons over the previous 34 years (0 since). Since then, Nebraska has had 6 losing seasons, and have gone 0-7 vs. Iowa. Hawkeyes are 63-24 (.724) since that day, while the Huskers are 34-49 (.410).
