DeKalb, Ill. (AP) — Quinyon Mitchell intercepted four passes, returning a pair for touchdowns, and Toledo blasted Northern Illinois 52-32 on Saturday.
Dequan Finn threw the first of his three touchdown passes on the opening drive of the game — a 4-yarder to Jerjuan Newton — before Mitchell picked off Ethan Hampton and went 25 yards for the score.
The Huskies punted twice before three straight drives ended with Mitchell interceptions. The four tied the program record for Toledo (4-2, 2-0 Mid-American Conference).
Finn and Newton hooked up for an 11-yard score and Jacquez Stuart plowed in from a yard out before Mitchell scored again on a 20-yard pick-6, making with 35-7 at halftime.
