Nebraska football was dominated by the Utah Utes, who lost 44-22 on Wednesday night in the SRS Distribution Las Vegas Bowl. Nebraska led the game 14-7 in the first quarter, but after that, it was all Utah. At one point, the EU scored 31 unanswered points on their way to victory.

The Huskers were outgained 535-343 in total yards and the offense didn’t hold up much after the first quarter. Quarterback TJ Lateef was 15-for-28 that afternoon, throwing for 182 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

Mehki Nelson was able to solidify the Huskers’ running game, carrying the ball 12 times for 88 yards and a touchdown. Isaiah Mozee had four catches for 48 yards, but it wasn’t enough on a day when the Huskers’ offense was stagnant.

Social media was left disappointed following the loss, as the program can now officially turn the page on the 2026 season.
