Nebraska is hanging tough against Northwestern following one early turnover.

It looked like things may snowball quickly on the Cornhuskers after a long touchdown run by Drake Anderson. That was followed by some stops forced by Northwestern’s defense, but Nebraska has answered with some stops of their own.

One stop was provided by a crazy interception from Myles Farmer. With Northwestern’s Peyton Ramsey trying to connect on a throw down the field, the ball was deflected up into the air after bouncing off the helmet of a Nebraska defender.

Farmer ran under the ball after being in the right place at the right time for a key turnover:

Nebraska would use that possession to kick a field goal and cut Northwestern’s lead to 7-6.
