LINCOLN, Neb. -- Bring on Oregon.Nebraska tuned up for the No. 24 Ducks with a 52-17 victory over Wyoming, which trailed by seven points late in the third quarter but saw the game get out of control because of Josh Allens six turnovers, all in the second half Saturday.Now a Nebraska program trying to regain national relevance can turn its full attention to one of the most anticipated games in Lincoln in years.Oregon, theyre no joke, said Jordan Westerkamp, who caught two of Tommy Armstrong Jr.s three touchdown passes and had 105 yards on four receptions. Theyre a top program in the entire nation. This will be our first big test. We have to take them extremely serious and have a great week of practice because theyre going to come ready to play.If we can get a win against Oregon, thatll be huge for our program. On a national level, just beating a team like that should propel us forward in a lot of peoples minds.Nebraska (2-0), which ran on 51 of 64 plays in last weeks 43-10 win over Fresno State, relied on the pass against Wyoming (1-1). Armstrong was 20 of 34 for 377 yards, and the Huskers finished with 412 yards through the air after backup Ryker Fyfe played the last two series.Armstrong set the school career record for touchdown passes, with his 57th coming on a 9-yard pass to Westerkamp in the fourth quarter. The fourth-year starting QB was presented the game ball in the locker room for his accomplishment.I couldnt do it without those guys, Armstrong said. They did a great job making plays -- a bunch of catches and yards after contact. We have a lot of season left, and Im excited about those guys out wide.Six of Wyomings last seven second-half possessions ended with turnovers -- five interceptions and a bad lateral by Allen that was counted as a fumble -- and the Huskers scored 28 points in the fourth quarter.There was a tipping point in the game, and sometimes they get away from you. That one did, Cowboys coach Craig Bohl said. I dont know where the exact tipping point was, but it was after one of those interceptions. The score started getting tough.Kieron Williams ran back an interception 23 yards for a touchdown, and Nate Gerry picked off two passes.I think its great to be 2-0 going into this game, Nebraska coach Mike Riley said. The more you win, the more exciting the next game gets. This one, being who they are and what they mean nationally and where we want to go, this is exciting.THE TAKEAWAYWYOMING: The Cowboys hung with the Huskers for three quarters, but there was no way Wyoming was going to survive six turnovers -- all in the second half. Allen did show flashes, like when he rolled right and threw a perfect strike on a 35-yard pass to Gentry for touchdown on a fourth-and-12 late in the first half.NEBRASKA: The Huskers put up some big offensive numbers, but they struggled again with personal fouls and other penalties, which could come back to bite them against better opponents. The defense shut down Wyoming star running back Brian Hill -- good preparation for Oregons Royce Freeman next week.KEY NUMBERSWYOMING: Gentry had seven catches for 124 yards with one touchdown and now has five career 100-yard games, including two straight.NEBRASKA: Alonzo Moore had three catches for a career-high 109 yards, including a 63-yard touchdown. The Huskers five interceptions were the most since they picked off five passes against Idaho in 2010.UP NEXTWYOMING: The Cowboys return home to play UC Davis of the FCS Big Sky Conference for the first time. The teams have a one-game contract, with Wyoming paying a $400,000 guarantee.NEBRASKA: The Huskers game against Oregon is especially meaningful to Riley, the former Oregon State coach who was 4-10 against the Ducks with his usually-outmanned Beaver teams (1997-98, 2003-14).LAST WORDWe went into the fourth quarter down seven. It was within reach. It just didnt happen... Everyones hurting. Im hurting. I take this one completely on myself. I didnt put our team in a position to win, Allen said.

NASSAU, Bahamas -- Prior to his return to competition at this weeks Hero World Challenge, Tiger Woods admitted that he would need to remain patient as he worked himself back into form.Based on his second-round performance, maybe Woods wont need to be as patient as he would have believed.Woods posted a bogey-free 7-under 65 on Friday in a round that recalled the vintage highlights of his past, including several brilliant par saves and a near-hole-in-one.It feels good, said Woods, whose score was eight strokes better than the previous round. Yesterday I had it going through eight holes and lost it. Today was different.The round marked Woods first blemish-free scorecard since a 67 in the final round of the 2015 Greenbrier Classic, 18 months ago. On Friday, he hit 8 of 13 fairways and 14 of 18 greens in regulation.He trailed co-leaders Dustin Johnson and Hideki Matsuyama, who were at 12-under 132, two shots ahead of Matt Kuchar and Louis Oosthuizen.Woods opened with a birdie from 5 feet on the first hole and remained in control of his game for the entire round. He played the five par-5 holes in a collective 4-under, but it was the par-3 12th hole that provided the biggest cheers.He hit a 6-iron that flew right at the intended target and almost went into the hole, stopping about a foot away for an easy birdie tap-in.I couldnt hit it any better than that one, Woods said with a smile.Two other big moments in the round didnt even ressult in birdies.ddddddddddddOn the par-3 eighth hole, after his tee shot landed in a bush left of the green, Woods wedged out to 12 feet and rolled in the par-saving putt. On the par-4 16th, his drive landed near another bush in a waste bunker. His next shot advanced the ball in that same terrain, then he hit a wedge to 35 feet and made the putt to keep his round blemish-free.I wanted to keep that card clean, Woods said. I dont know what it is about playing and competing, but keeping cards clean, theres something really special and it feels pretty good about doing that.One day earlier, Woods played the final three holes in 4-over, stumbling home after what had been a strong start. On Friday, he incurred no such stumbles.For just the second time in his professional career, Woods played a competitive round as a single. Playing partner Justin Rose withdrew prior to the round with a back injury, allowing Woods to play alone in 2 hours, 54 minutes, finishing well ahead of the other 16 competitors in the field.Coming off three back surgeries, that injury was an obvious source of concern entering this week. But Woods insisted it has improved throughout the week.It feels better today than it did Wednesday and Thursday, which is a very good sign, a very good sign, he said. I dont know why. Id like to know. ' ' '
