Huskers Use Record-Setting Passing Performance to Survive Shootout with Ball State On a record-setting day at Memorial Stadium, the Nebraska offense rolled up 552 yards to power the Huskers to a 41- 40 victory over visiting Ball State in a game that featured eight lead changes. Senior quarterback Sam Keller completed HUSKERS.COM 29-of-37 passes for three touchdowns and a school-record 438 yards to overcome a high-powered Cardinal offense. Keller threw for 322 yards and three touchdowns in the second half alone, including an 11-yard scoring strike to Maurice Purify with 3:13 to play to account for the final margin. However, the victory was not secure until Ball State missed a 55-yard

field goal attempt with 17 seconds remaining.
