Frazier added a 35-yard touchdown pass to tight end Eric Alford early in the fourth quarter to put the game away at 35-9. Both teams added touchdowns in the final seven minutes to close out the scoring. Phillips said the three backs complimented each other well. “They were playing the option, and that opened things up for Tommie,” Phillips said. “Then they started to play Tommie, and that opened up the middle for Cory.” Osborne said Nebraska’s lowest point of the season so far came with just over four minutes left in the third quarter.
