LINCOLN, Nebraska (AP) — Luke Altmyer threw four touchdowns, including a short toss to Pat Bryant in overtime, to give No. 24 Illinois a 31-24 victory over No. 22 Nebraska on Friday night.

The Illini (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten) have defeated two ranked opponents in the same season for the first time since 2007 and are off to a 4-0 start for the first time since 2011. The Illini defeated the Cornhuskers in Lincoln for the third straight time, spoiling the celebration of their 400th consecutive sold-out game at Memorial Stadium.

Nebraska (3-1, 0-1) has lost 25 straight games to teams ranked in the Top 25 since 2016 and is now 8-31 in one-possession games since 2018.

The teams traded touchdowns in the second half before the Illini covered 75 yards in nine plays to tie it at 24-all. Altmyer threw 6 yards to tackle Brandon Henderson on a fourth-and-2 for the touchdown with 10:36 left in regulation. It was the first reception of the 6-foot-5, 335-pound Henderson’s career.

Nebraska had to punt the ball and missed a field goal on its final two drives of regulation. Reserve John Hohl, taking the ball in place of the injured Tristan Alvano, missed the ball from 39 yards with 2:59 left.

Illinois fouled and awarded a point, prompting Raiola to kneel and the game to go into overtime.

Illinois’ Kaden Feagin ran 21 yards on the first play of overtime before Altmyer found Bryant for a 4-yard touchdown to put the game up 31-24.

Nebraska’s possession was a disaster, as Raiola was sacked three times, including on fourth down to end the game.
