DUBLIN -- Ryan Hilinski threw for 313 yards and two touchdowns to help Northwestern rally for a 31-28 victory over Nebraska in Saturday's season opener in Ireland.
Northwestern handed the Cornhuskers their seventh consecutive loss going back to last season -- all coming by single digits -- and added more pressure on embattled coach Scott Frost, who took the blame for a failed onside kick that changed the momentum of the game in the third quarter.
"I made that call so that's on me," Frost said of the onside kick after the Huskers took a 28-17 lead.
