Big Ten says ball was incorrectly spotted during Nebraska-Ohio State game on Saturday
LINCOLN, Neb. (KOLN) – As they do during most games, fans were less than pleased with some of the officiating that occurred during the Nebraska-Ohio State game on Saturday.
During the game, it seemed that the ball wasn’t spotted correctly on several occasions, most notably towards the end of the first half when Nebraska’s Emmett Johnson appeared to have gained a first down but instead the ball was was placed a full yard short of the line to gain.
On Monday, the Big Ten Chief Operating Officer released a statement to the media.
Nebraska lost valuable time off the clock during this series of plays, while still managing to make a field goal as time expired in the first half.
In his post-game press conference, Rhule had expressed confusion about that series of plays thinking that Nebraska had indeed gained a first down on that play.

Beautiful Weather Ahead for Greater Nebraska But Heat Building Later in the Week
NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (KNOP) – Get ready for a stretch of absolutely gorgeous weather to kick off your weekend but keep an eye on the heat building as we head into next week.
This Weekend: Perfect Conditions
Saturday and Sunday are shaping up to be nearly identical — sunny skies with highs climbing to around 89 and 90 degrees respectively. A light south southeast breeze at 5 to 10 mph will keep things comfortable, though gusts could reach 20 mph at times. Overnight lows will dip to the low 60s, making for pleasant sleeping weather.
This is ideal weather for outdoor plans. Whether you’re heading to a summer event, spending time at the lake, or just enjoying time outside, you won’t want to miss it.
Early Next Week: Heat Turns Up
Starting Monday, temperatures begin a steady climb. Highs will reach 91 degrees Monday, then 91 again Tuesday before pushing toward 92 on Wednesday. By Thursday and Friday, we’re looking at highs near 94 to 95 degrees.
The good news? Skies remain sunny throughout, and humidity levels should stay relatively manageable. The breeze will be light, so it won’t feel quite as intense as it could.
