## Oregon Ducks win over Nebraska
Oregon coach Dan Lanning and the Ducks improved to 4-2 with the win, yet Nebraska led for nearly the entire game until Oregon took its first lead with 28 seconds remaining in the game.
## Controversial replay review
Nebraska's first touchdown has been a point of controversy since the play was reviewed by replay officials during the game on Saturday.
## Touchdown call details
Cornhuskers quarterback Anthony Colandrea found receiver Kwazi Gilmer in the back corner of the end zone, and the play was originally ruled a touchdown on the field.
## Difficulty determining catch
With Oregon defensive back Na'eem Offord in close coverage, determining whether Gilmer secured the catch while also staying in bounds is nearly impossible in live time.
## Replay analyst opinion
Fox Sports rules analyst Mike Pereira said on the broadcast that the call was correct because the foot hit the ground but it's hard to prove it didn't.

> you know the word i kept saying? i think. i think that foot hit the ground, but i like where replay mostly stays in that it's got to be clear and obvious before you absolutely reverse something. . . . does that hit the ground? i don't think you can prove it didn't, so you have to stay with the call
## Angle evidence issue
The angles available do not show clear evidence that Gilmer's right foot scraped the turf before his body lands on the out-of-bounds line in the back of the end zone.
## Other questionable moment
In the fourth quarter with under six minutes remaining in the contest, Nebraska running back Isaiah Mozee caught a check down pass from Colandrea before turning up field.
## Mozee tackle situation
Mozee was tackled near the line of scrimmage, and the ball popped out of his arms while being tackled. Whether or not Mozee was down before the ball came loose is hard to see.
## Mozee play outcome
Instead, Mozee was ruled to be down with the ball, and Nebraska retained possession.
## Davon Benjamin recovery
Oregon defensive back Davon Benjamin made a clear recovery of the ball, so had the play been ruled a fumble, the Ducks would have gotten the ball back in the red zone.
## Game consequence
Instead, Oregon's defense had to force a traditional stop, and the Cornhuskers punted the ball back to the Ducks offense on the next play.
## Final game impact
For an Oregon offense that struggled to find the end zone all night, having such a short field would have given the Ducks an immediate advantage in the fourth quarter.
## Key takeaway

Oregon Ducks won 4-2 with a late touchdown after replay officials upheld a disputed catch that Nebraska led until the final 28 seconds.
