Nebraska has 77,354 sq miles.
A Square Mile has 4,014,489,600 square inches.
That makes 3,120,679,548,518,400 square inches. An average golden hamster is approximately 12 sq inches. 4" long, 3" wide
That makes 260,056,629,043,200 hamsters per Nebraska.
260 trillion, 56 billion, 629 million, 43 thousand, and 200 Hamsters to fill Nebraska.

In the game system I used, a natural 00, followed by another 00, hit any target, in a given attack round. That's one automatic hit every 1000 bites.
