08/29/25 - QB Dylan Raiola, So/2028, Nebraska

Dylan Raiola threw for 243 yards and two touchdowns, and Malcolm Hartzog Jr. picked off Brendan Sorsby's pass in the end zone with 34 seconds left, preserving Nebraska's 20-17 victory over Cincinnati on Thursday night at Arrowhead Stadium. Emmett Johnson had 108 yards rushing while Dane Key and Nyziah Hunter had touchdown catches for the Huskers. Sorsby had just 69 yards passing for the Bearcats, but he also had 96 yards rushing and two scores. And he gamely led them to two second-half touchdowns, and nearly a third that could have won the game had Hartzog not been there to intercept it. The Bearcats actually led 3-0 early and were still within 6-3 late in the first half when they made a crucial mistake.

Despite his offense going nowhere, Cincinnati coach Scott Satterfield tried pushing the ball downfield on first-and-10 at its own 19 with 1:02 left before the break. Sorsby completed a short pass to Caleb Goodie, but the ball popped loose and was recovered by the Huskers, who needed just three plays to punch it into the end zone. Instead of trailing by a field goal, the Bearcats headed to the locker room trailing 13-3 - a seemingly insurmountable deficit given they had managed 20 yards passing and 81 yards of total offense over the first 30 minutes. Cincinnati fought to get back in it in the second half, though. It stopped the Huskers on fourth down early in the third quarter, and Sorsby finished the ensuing drive by diving over the pylon for a touchdown. And when Nebraska answered with a TD of its own, Sorsby needed just 3 1/2 minutes to drive the Bearcats 75 yards and get within 20-17 with 7:15 left. The Bearcats got the ball back with about 2 minutes to go, but Hartzog made the clinching play in the final minute. - Nebraska/AP College Football
