"'Task failed successfully' play of the week: Nebraska Nebraska successfully pulled off what might amount to the world's longest onside kick in the first quarter Friday against Iowa, a clever way to steal a possession in a rivalry game. There was just one problem: The Cornhuskers weren't actually trying to attempt an onside kick. John Hohl sent a high-arcing kick down the field, but Hohl's boot came up short of the end zone -- by a lot. So short, in fact, that the Hawkeyes' return unit couldn't find its landing spot, at approximately the 22-yard line. The ball hit the ground and took a bounce forward ... right into a cluster of would-be blockers and tacklers, with Nebraska able to successfully cover up the unconventional opportunity."
"Best reunion: Stanford Technically speaking, this superlative doesn't have anything to do with any of the games being played in Week 14 specifically. But as Georgia Tech and Georgia were squaring off Friday, ESPN's Pete Thamel broke the news that Stanford would be hiring Washington Commanders quarterbacks coach Tavita Pritchard as the program's next head coach.

College football's regular season concluded with Rivalry Week, featuring animosity, history and on-field shenanigans. Nebraska recovered possession after John Hohl's high-arcing kick fell short and bounced forward into a cluster, allowing Nebraska to cover the ball near the 22-yard line. Stanford announced the hiring of Tavita Pritchard as head coach; Pritchard previously served as a quarterback, assistant coach and coordinator at Stanford from 2010 to 2022 and worked as Washington Commanders quarterbacks coach. Rivalry Week produced nontraditional superlatives that honored offbeat plays, reunions and trolling moments such as Egg Bowl antics.
