They had a 15-1 run that broke the game open. Final 79-69.
Brice Williams was merely human today, Juwan Gary was the man. 21 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 blocks. Sam Hoiberg had 10. Huskers shot 63.2% from 3, 12 of 19. That’s the equivalent of shooting 94.8 from 2 point range or 18 of 19.
Huskers have now won 20 games, something that it seemed they would have well before the regular season ended. Now on to the championship game.

UCF beat Villanova in OT, so they’ll play Nebraska for the Crown title and $300K in NIL money. Loser gets $100K.
