UPDATE:
Per @HuskerSports Network Tommy Armstrong is talking and it looks like everything is just precautionary at this point. Great to hear.

Nebraska quarterback Tommy Armstrong was knocked out of Saturday's game after a scramble to the sideline resulted in him landing directly on his head.
Armstrong was not moving on the sideline and his jersey and pads had to be cut off before he was strapped to a backboard and carted off the field.
A trooper has escorted what appears to be family members down to the field. A quiet scene here at the Shoe. https://t.co/qvg0tI7Ixy

Armstrong's eyes appeared to be open and the quarterback gave the thumbs up as he was escorted immediately to an ambulance.
Armstrong taken off on stretcher to ambulance. Hopefully, only precautionary

Obviously Armstrong's health was more important than the outcome of the football game, and fans in attendance showed unity in chanting his name as he was carted off the field.
Ohio State fans chanting "Tommy" as Nebraska QB Tommy Armstrong is carted off in a neck brace. Incredible gesture in The Shoe. #NEBvsOSU
