OU leveled in Lincoln

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Matt O’Hanlon had three of Nebraska’s five interceptions against Landry Jones and the Cornhuskers squeezed enough production out of their struggling offense to upset No. 20 Oklahoma 10-3 on Saturday night.

The Sooners (5-4, 3-2 Big 12) failed to score a touchdown for the first time since a 29-0 loss to Texas A&M; in 1998.

The Cornhuskers (6-3, 3-2) won despite getting just seven first downs and 180 total yards. They were able to get a yard when they really needed it, after Prince Amukamara re-turned an interception to the OU 1 in the second quarter. Zac Lee threw a short pass to Ryan Hill for Nebraska’s fourth offensive TD in four games.

Oklahoma’s last two possessions ended on interceptions, including O’Hanlon’s third, which he grabbed at the Nebraska 7 with 27 seconds left.

O’Hanlon ran back his first interception 30 yards to set up Alex Henery’s 28-yard field goal.

Roy Helu Jr. ran for 138 yards on 20 carries for Nebraska, which won for the first time in five meetings against Ok-lahoma since 2001.

After Lee took a knee to end the game, Helu and a band of teammates dashed to the end zone stands.
