Game Story
EVANSTON, Illinois (Ticker) -- Noah Herron and Northwestern are
getting pretty good at overtimes.
Herron scored on a 16-yard run in double overtime as the
Wildcats edged Indiana, 31-24, in a Big Ten Conference contest.
Last week, Herron ran it in from two yards out in overtime as
Northwestern stunned Ohio State, 33-27.
In this one, Indiana scored on its second play of the first
extra period as quarterback Matt LoVecchio tossed a 25-yard TD
pass to Jahkeen Gilmore.
Northwestern quarterback Brett Basanez tied it after scrambling
and finding Taylor Jones for a two-yard TD.
The Wildcats got the ball first in double overtime, and on
4th-and-1 from the 16, Herron ran around the right end for a
touchdown. Herron finished with 197 yards and three TDs.
Northwestern sacked LoVecchio on 4th-and-3 from the 18 to end
the game.
Basanez completed 28-of-48 passes for 254 yards, one touchdown
and one interception for the Wildcats (3-3, 2-1 Big Ten), who
have played three overtime games this season. They lost in
double overtime at Texas Christian on September 2, 48-45.
LoVecchio was 27-of-50 for 329 yards, three TDs and an
interception for the Hoosiers (2-3, 0-3), who also lost to the
Wildcats in overtime last year, 37-31.
Indiana took its first lead, 17-14, on a 35-yard field goal by
Bryan Robertson with 11:28 left in the fourth quarter.
Northwestern's Brian Huffman tied it with a 32-yard kick with 29
seconds left.
