Penalty reverses Spartans momentum

The Spartans give it to Laress Nelson on first-and-10 from the 25, and he loses a yard on the last play of the quarter.

22-19 Northwestern (End 3rd)

Brian Lewerke runs for a gain of 5 on second down to make it third-and-6. He finds La'Darius Jefferson on a slant route that'll be good for 8 yards and a first down at the 37.

The Spartans run a little RPO action on first down; Lewerke kicks it to Weston Bridges with a perfectly-timed pitch, and he gets all the way down to the 39.
