NU was effective but sloppy en route to a two-yard touchdown run by Tyrell Sutton, his second of the game. Sutton's fourth touchdown run of the year came on a traditional option off the left side, as Sutton dove to break the plane of the goal. Bacher hit Peterman twice on third down to extend the drive, despite the fact that the Cats struggled to move the ball.
NU has had difficulty scoring once they get inside the red zone. Mick McCall preached capitalizing on opportunities in spring practice. The Cats have had difficulty lining up in goal line sets and scoring touchdowns - they take the unconventional route.
Bacher was nearly intercepted twice by Mike McElroy on the drive, who intercepted two passes last week against Hampton. But he's 19-of-26 for 171 yards on the game.
The Cats have converted 8-of-12 third down attempts, which has extended their drives.
