It was kinda a laggy game, so a couple weird plays happened.
Neb scored first, and then TAMU ran the kickoff back for a TD.
It was 14-14 at halftime.
In the second half, TAMU completed dominated the game in all aspects. TAMU led 21-14 and had two chances to put the game away. TAMU was at the 5 yd line and threw a quick pass, but it lagged out and Neb INTd it. Then TAMU was at the 20 and threw a 10 yd pass, but again it lagged out the WR and Neb did a diving INT.
TAMU got the ball back again and kicked a FG, 24-14 with 2 minutes left in the game.
Neb did like a 20 play drive, converted 3 4th downs and finally scored. TAMU 24-21.
TAMU would punt and Neb got it back with 20 seconds to go at their own 20. With 2 seconds left they still had it at their 20.
They did the same play they always do, a quick fade toi the right WR. TAMU was in super-prevent, and had 4 defenders on the spot. Right before the pass landed, there was a major-lag out where a "black hole" kinda appears on the screen. After this instant, Nebraska WR somehow had caught the ball despite the 4 defenders, and then the WR took off untouched for 80 yards and not a single TAMU defender even came close to him, despite the fact that 4 of them had been BEHIND the catch before the lag-out. (I was disconnected during the final play too, go figure)
Nonetheless, I dont care. TAMU "won", and unfortunately mega-lag had to decide a great game. Nebraska was outplayed, and all of the end-game stats showed it. (Neb completed only 30% of their passes was the major stat.)
