Husker are tied for the best home mark in major college basketball, as they led from start to finish in a 67-56 win over Rutgers. When Rutgers got the game back to a six point deficit in the 2nd half, Tominaga put up a 7 point spurt in 49 seconds to get back to double-digits.
One more win (@Michigan next Sunday) would lock up a double-bye in the conference tournament.
Hoiberg should get serious consideration for Big Ten coach of the year, for getting a winning conference mark out of a team that was projected to finish 12th by most of the media.
