24 assists to 12 turnovers is going to get you a lot of wins.  That’s pretty impressive.

I think several of our TOs were in the first few minutes too. We settled in very well after that and really protected the ball.

I hope Berke's injury isn't to bad. I'm guessing a bruised thigh.

Has there been anything said about our players??? 

 

Thought they said more would be known yesterday.

I'm pretty sure that late in the first half we had 10 TO's and SD had 9, with both teams ending up with 12 for the game.

Who is the last men's player to hit a half-court shot in a game?  I don't remember ever seeing one.  Anyone know?

Ulis against South Dakota earlier this week.  Before that, I am pretty sure Keisei had one.

Jack McVeigh had one a few years back. I don't recall any others off the top of my head.

Sorry, completely forgot to post the notes from UNL

 

• Nebraska has now won 16 straight games at home dating back to last season.

• Nebraska’s 96 points was a season high (86 vs. FDU) and the most since scoring 100 points in a four OT loss at NC State on Dec. 1, 2001. It was NU’s highest total in regulation since scoring 110 against Doane on Dec. 17, 2020.
• Connor Essegian finished with a career-high 29 points, bettering his previous career best of 24 against Michigan on Feb. 26, 2023, when he was at Wisconsin. It marked his third career 20-point game and first as a Husker. Essegian’s 29 points were the most by a Husker this season.
• Essegian set career bests in both 3-pointers (six) and assists (five). His six 3-pointers was the most by a Husker since Rienk Mast had six against Ohio State on Jan. 23, 2024.
• Essegian’s five assists were a career high, as his previous best was three on two previous occasions, most recently on Dec. 6, 2022
• Essegian’s 29 points is the most by a Husker off the bench since at least 2004. It is the ninth time under Hoiberg that a Husker reserve scored at least 20 points.  It was the fifth time this season that a Husker reserve reached double figures.
• Nebraska finished with a season-high 13 3-pointers, including 10 in the first half. NU’s previous season high was seven.
• Nebraska posted its fifth double-digit run of the season, as Brice Williams had 10 of his 21 in the spurt.
• Nebraska’s 24 assists was a season high and most since dishing out 25 assists in the win over Doane in 2020. The last time Nebraska recorded 20 or more assists was against Indiana last season in the Big Ten Tournament.  NU posted a 2-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio with 24 assists and 12 turnovers.
• Nebraska finished with 10 steals, the fourth time in six games with double-digit steals.
• Brice Williams reached double figures for the 10th straight game dating back to last season with his 21-point effort. It is the longest stretch of his career. Williams has three 20-point games this season and six in NU’s last nine games dating back to last season.
• The 54 first-half points is the most since scoring 54 against Doane on Dec. 17 2020, most vs. D-1 team since scoring 55 in the first half against Mississippi Valley State on Nov. 6, 2018.
• It was the 10th time under Fred Hoiberg where Nebraska scored at least 50 first-half points.
• Braxton Meah (12 points on 6-of-6 shooting) and Sam Hoiberg (nine points) also finished with season highs in points
• Nebraska got 51 points from its bench in the win.
