The week didn’t go so well for one Pelini brother, but the other was much more fortunate.
Bo Pelini’s Nebraska Cornhuskers beat Northwestern 27-24 on Saturday after connecting on a miracle Hail Mary on the last play of the game. Quarterback Ron Kellogg III heaved one to the end zone that was tipped and caught by Jordan Westerkamp for a 49-yard touchdown pass to give the Huskers the victory. You can watch the video below:
INSTANT HIGHLIGHT: Hail Mary with no time left? Yep, @Huskers just did it. Incredible!!! #orvillemoment WATCH – http://t.co/NSWG4wHeqa

Do you think Pelini has realized yet what happened? His Huskers are now 6-2 thanks to the win, while the Wildcats drop to 4-5 and 0-5 in the Big Ten.
Ouch. What a painful way to lose.
Here’s a pretty sweet photo of the catch:
