Fourth quarter

Instead of attempting a 43-yard field, Northwestern went for it on fourth-and-6 from the Nevada 26. Thorson overthrew his target for a turnover on downs.

The Wolf Pack quickly moved down the field before Gangi was picked off on the 2-yard line on a pass intended for Mannix. Northwestern returned the favor three plays later when a Wolf Pack blitz forced Thorson into a bad throw, which was intercepted by Elijah Moody, giving the ball to Nevada on the Wildcats’ 17.
