The Heisman Trophy candidate and Ohio State quarterback had only just received the snap and stepped barely to his left before outside linebacker JoJo Domann crashed into him, forcing the ball out.
Domann had lined up right in the middle of the field while Haskins received the snap from the left has mark, but on the blitz, running back Mike Weber missed Domann.
As the ball squirted out, it took a Husker roll from the Nebraska 31-yard line to the 36 before it was recovered by defensive tackle Carlos Davis.
The Husker roll continued as the offense then finished off what the fumble had started, moving down the field with ease, marching 64 yards in 4 minutes before bringing the score to 16-14 in the middle of the second half.
