Harding that pulled UMass (1-5) within 27-20 about 2 minutes later but Poe returned the ensuing kickoff 89 yards to the 4 and three plays later Ethan Hampton's 1-yard TD run capped the scoring with 2:05 to play.

On the game's second play from scrimmage, Jalonnie Williams recovered a fumble by Phommachanh at the UMass 15 and Hampton threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Brock Lampe that gave Northern Illinois a 7-0 just 45 seconds in to the game.

Phommachanh hit Harding for a 58-yard TD about 2 minutes later and Jacob Lurie kicked a 27-yard field goal early in the second quarter and a 27-yarder just before halftime that gave the Minutemen a 13-7 lead.
