Luke Altmyer's fourth touchdown pass of the night, a 4-yarder to Pat Bryant in overtime, led No. 24 Illinois to a 31-24 win over No. 22 Nebraska on Friday in Lincoln, Neb. Illinois (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten) started overtime with a 21-yard run by Kaden Feagin. Altmyer then connected with Bryant in the right corner of the end zone. Nebraska (3-1, 0-1) began its overtime drive with a false-start penalty, and matters only grew worse for the Cornhuskers. Dylan Raiola took two sacks, completed a pass, then was sacked on fourth-and-29 to end the game. Altmyer completed 21 of 27 passes for 215 yards. Bryant finished with five receptions, including two touchdowns, for 74 yards. Tanner Arkin and offensive lineman Brandon Henderson each had a red-zone TD reception, and Kaden Feagin led the Fighting Illini with 69 rushing yards on 12 carries. Raiola wound up 24 of 35 for 297 yards with three touchdowns passes and one interception. Isaiah Neyor had four receptions for 90 yards and two scores, and Jahmal Banks hauled in eight passes for 94 yards. Dante Dowdell ran 20 times for 72 yards. Both teams had chances to break a tie late in the fourth quarter. The Cornhuskers' Ceyair Wright forced a fumble while sacking Altmyer with 8:24 remaining, and teammate Mikai Gbayor recovered at the Nebraska 38. The ensuing drive ended when Nebraska kicker John Hohl missed wide right on a 39-yard field-goal attempt. The Fighting Illini were aided by a key play in the second quarter that was first called a Cornhuskers touchdown on the field. After a review, Torrie Cox Jr. had his arm between Neyor and the ball and stripped it away in the end zone, keeping possession with the lone interception for either team on the night. Nebraska senior defensive back Tommi Hill left the game in the first half because of an apparent head injury. It was a historic game for Nebraska despite the loss, as it was the school's NCAA-record 400th straight sellout. --Field Level Media.

Emmet Kenney kicked four field goals, including a 39-yarder as time expired, to send visiting Stanford to a 26-24 win over Syracuse on Friday night. Playing in their first Atlantic Coast Conference game following a long run in the Pac-12, the Cardinal (2-1, 1-0 ACC) never trailed until the waning minutes. Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord found receiver Darrell Gill Jr. for 24 yards on third-and-17 then hooked up with Jackson Meeks for a 13-yard TD with 3:13 remaining as the hosts jumped ahead 24-23. However, the Orange (2-1, 1-1) were unable to stop Stanford on the final possession. Ashton Daniels' 27-yard back-shoulder throw to Elic Ayomanor on fourth-and-9 set up the Cardinal at the 18-yard line, allowing Kenney to drill the winning kick in the final seconds. McCord finished 27 of 42 for 339 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions, plus a rushing score. Daniels went 23 of 38 for 178 yards with one TD and two picks. McCord accounted for two touchdowns -- one for each team -- in the latter portions of the third quarter. With a little more than four minutes left, he was intercepted by Mitch Leigber, who returned it 71 yards to put Stanford ahead 20-10 following the extra point. However, McCord got the points right back for the Orange, scoring on a 19-yard run in which he jumped over a defender on his leap into the end zone. McCord's second interception of the game -- this one nabbed by Jay Green -- set up the Cardinal around midfield less than a minute into the fourth quarter. The visitors drove into the red zone before settling for Kenney's 35-yard field goal that made it 23-17 with 9:19 to play. After the teams exchanged punts to begin the contest, Stanford drove 78 yards -- capped by Ayomanor's one-handed TD grab -- to open the scoring. Another punt by the Orange set up Kenney's 38-yard field goal to make it 10-0 early in the second quarter. The Cardinal still held a 10-point advantage, 13-3, after Kenney's 51-yard field goal with 1:35 remaining in the half. Yet, that left Syracuse enough time to cash in on McCord's last-minute 67-yard TD pass to Umari Hatcher, whose defender fell down on the play. --Field Level Media.
