Thompson threw two touchdowns, including a go-ahead yard touchdown strike to Trey Palmer with to play as Nebraska rallied to beat Rutgers Friday night, handing the Scarlet Knights their 21st consecutive loss at home to a Big Ten Conference opponent. Thompson missed two plays on the Cornhuskers’ final series of the half after taking a big hit on a pass attempt.
He spent most of his time in the locker room taking off his pads and being re-taped. His return to the field was further delayed because he was blocked behind Rutgers , coming back on the field with a lead. It was a physical game on the road. A lot of adversity to push through tonight.
Safety Myles Farmer set up the game-winning score with an interception and return. Thompson, who also threw a 7-yard TD pass to tight end Travis Vokolek to open the second half, connected on the next play from scrimmage as Palmer made a sliding catch in the end zone.
The Cornhuskers got a shutout from their defense in the final 30 minutes in handing Rutgers its third straight loss. Farmer made the big play, picking an ill-advised pass by Evan Simon and returning it 17 yards. Simon was intercepted three times. Quarterback Noah Vedral , a Nebraska graduate transfer now in his third season at Rutgers, scored on a yard run on the opening series but he struggled passing, hitting 6 of 15 for yards.
Rutgers coach Greg Schiano said after the game Vedral missed the early part of the season with a hand injury and he has trouble sometimes gripping the ball. Rutgers Jude McAtamney kicked field goals of 25 and 40 yards, the first set up by a punt block by Max Melton , who also had an interception. Schiano said his team made too many mistakes with three turnovers and nine penalties.
The biggest mistake was an unnecessary roughness penalty on defensive back Kessawn Abraham with just over four minutes to play on a third-down tackle which would have forced a punt. Nebraska ended up keeping the ball and milking down the clock to a minute. I believe we have that strength of culture in our locker room. They are very disappointed to the point of grown men crying because they felt and they know we let one slip away today. Rutgers’ Adam Korsak had a streak of straight punts without a touchback snapped with left in the fourth quarter when he had a yard line drive go through the end zone.
Nebraska: After ending a nine-game losing streak against Bowl Subdivision opponents when it beat Indiana, the Huskers have now won two in a row under Joseph and seems to believe they can win more. Rutgers: The Scarlet Knights need to straighten out their quarterback situation.
Vedral started his first game of the season but Schiano used Simon and Johnny Langan , the tight end who carries in short-yardage situations.
None of them was impressive. Gavin Wimsatt is injured and still not ready to play. Tre’Shaun Harrison somehow comes up with the stellar catch and hustles down the field to score the game winner for Oregon State.
