Nebraska’s most explosive offensive weapon hardly touches the football. But when he does … boom!Sophomore running back Kenneth Williams took the second-half kickoff and not only returned it 95 yards for a touchdown and a 14-6 lead, he also lifted the Huskers out of the doldrums.
Williams fielded the kickoff, veered left, flew past would-be tacklers, ran through two attempted ankle tackles and sprinted unimpeded into the end zone. Memorial Stadium came alive. So did the Huskers, who got a much-needed boost after an uneven first half.

In the end zone was a huge celebration, a swarm of Huskers congratulating Williams. It was the Huskers’ first kickoff return for a touchdown since 2017…
