Northwestern's Nelson recovers fumble for defensive touchdown

MAPLE, Wis.- It’s not often that defensive linemen are able to get their hands on the ball, let alone score touchdowns.

On Friday, Northwestern’s Finley Nelson recovered a fumble in the end zone following a botched jet sweep handoff by Prescott. This marked the Tigers’ first touchdown of the season, but it was their only score in a 42-8 loss to the Cardinals.

Northwestern will have a chance to get back on track next week at home against Somerset.
