Dylan Raiola threw for 228 yards and a touchdown, leading Nebraska to an 18-point lead and a 20-15 victory over Boston College in the Pinstripe Bowl. It's the Cornhuskers' first bowl win since 2015 and their first winning season since 2016.
Dylan Raiola passed for 228 yards and a touchdown as Nebraska built an 18-point lead through three quarters and hung on to beat Boston College, 20-15, Saturday for its first bowl victory since 2015. After Nebraska built a 13-2 lead in the first half on scoring runs by Rahmir Johnson and Kwinten Ives, Raiola hit Emmett Johnson with a 13-yard TD pass on fourth down with 3:02 remaining in the third quarter for a 20-2 edge and the Cornhuskers held on for the win.
The Eagles got past midfield on five of their first seven drives, but committed two turnovers and failed to convert four fourth downs, including two inside the 10-yard line. Boston College finally cashed with 6:11 left in the fourth when Turbo Richard scored on a 1-yard run, but the two-point conversion failed. BC made it a one-score game on Jordan McDonald's 2-yard run, a play after getting possession on a blocked punt.
