Apr. 10—McFarland handed Evansville its only loss of the 2019 regular season.

On Friday, the Blue Devils got a little revenge.

Tyr Severson's 1-yard touchdown run on fourth-and-goal in overtime was the difference as Evansville moved to 2-1 in the alternate fall season with a 30-24 victory at McFarland.

Severson, a senior, accounted for all of his team's points.

His 48-yard pass to Trevor Bahrs, and a two-point conversion pass, gave Evansville an 8-7 lead at halftime.

Severson ran in from 2 yards out in the fourth quarter, and a two-point conversion pass gave the Blue Devils a 16-10 lead. And his 27-yard TD pass to Aiden Maves and two-point run made it 24-17.

After McFarland scored with 1:16 left to force overtime, Severson capped his big night with the game-winning touchdown run in overtime.

He threw for 276 yards, with Maves catching five passes for 92 yards.

Evansville hosts East Troy on Friday.
