NCAAF News: Minnesota (school-record 9 sacks) swarms No. 25 Nebraska

Drake Lindsey had a rushing and passing touchdown and Minnesota set a school record for sacks in a 24-6 win over No. 25 Nebraska on Friday night in Minneapolis.

Lindsey, a redshirt freshman, threw for 153 yards and a TD on 16-of-20 passing as the Golden Gophers (5-2, 3-1 Big Ten) improved to 5-0 at home while winning their sixth in a row against Nebraska.

The Gophers sacked Nebraska’s Dylan Raiola nine times, breaking the program’s previous record set in 1990 and matched in 2000, after only recording 14 in the first six games. It was the second time this season Raiola, who completed 17 of 25 passes for 177 yards, had been sacked at least seven times and the most allowed by the Cornhuskers (5-2, 2-2) since 2005.

Up 7-6 at the half, Minnesota went on a 14-play, 98-yard drive capped by a 20-yard TD pass from Lindsey to Le’Meke Brockington for a 14-6 lead late in the third quarter. The drive, which lasted 8:43, was aided by a holding call on Nebraska on fourth down.

Nebraska, which hasn’t won a Big Ten game as a ranked team since 2016, was called for six penalties for the fourth time this season.

The Golden Gophers extended the lead to 21-6 on a 1-yard TD run by Darius Taylor early in the fourth. Taylor finished with 148 yards on 24 carries including a 71-yarder that set up Minnesota’s first score.

Nebraska twice made it into the red zone in the first half but had to settle for Kyle Cunanan field goals after stalling, the second drive seeing left tackle Elijah Pritchett get ejected for targeting. In between, Lindsey scored on a 1-yard run set up by Taylor’s long scamper.

On Oct. 25, Nebraska hosts Northwestern while Minnesota visits Iowa.
