The first half of Saturday’s Big Ten Conference -Matchup between Nebraska and Michigan ended with a Hail Mary -Pass worth highlighting wheels.
Although Michigan would eventually hold on to a 30-27 win, the game came of the game when Jacory Barney Jr. withdrew in a binding of 52-yard touchdown passes from Dylan Raiola as the time expired in the second quarter. The subsequent kick from Kyle Cunanan bound the scoring at. 17, when both teams went against the dressing room.
Before Nebraska’s last second Heave, Michigan’s Justice Haynes ’75 -yard ran had Wolverines set up 17-10. After this scoring game, Cornhusker’s possession of 1:51 got back in the first half.

Nebraska called a timeout with a second back after Emmett Johnson’s short run to 48. Raiola moved right and launched a high -arching ball downfield. Barney exceeded Michigan’s Jaden Mangham for the ball at the finish line, turned and fell into the final zone.

The play is reminiscent of Ron Kellogg III’s 49-yard end-of-game Hail Mary that Jordan Westerkamp came down to give Nebraska a 27-24 win over Northwestern in 2013.
