Quote

The Nebraska men’s basketball team (6-2) used a well-balanced attack in one of its best offensive performances of the year to defeat Boston College (5-3) in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge.

 

The Huskers were led by the junior duo of James Palmer Jr. and Isaac Copeland Jr. who tallied 15 points apiece. Senior captain Evan Taylor finished with a season-high 13 points (11 in the first half) off 3-3 shooting from beyond the arc, and Glynn Watson Jr. finished with 10 points and six assists.

 

For the first time this season, Glynn Watson Jr. was a great floor general. 

 

Any time Nebraska needed a bucket, James Palmer Jr. came up big.

 

Evan Taylor with a jumpshot is a nightmare.

 

I thought the absence of sophomore Isaiah Roby would be a big one for Nebraska. Instead, against a very good rebounding team, the Huskers rallied and played very well without its most efficient player, in terms of Player Efficiency Ratings (per, Sports-Reference). Roby has been a do-it-all kind of player for NU this season, so without him in the lineup, the rest of the squad had to step up and they did. That is a very good sign.
