  1. November 8, 2013 8PM CT - BTN Pinnacle Bank Arena (15,147) - Lincoln, NE Florida Gulf Coast Eagles 0-0 (2012-13: 26-11, 13-5 Atlantic Sun) vs Nebraska Cornhuskers 0-0 (2012-13: 15-18, 5-13 B1G) Head Coaches Florida Gulf Coast Joe Dooley (57-52, 0-0 at FGCU) Nebraska Tim Miles (298-238, 15-18 at Nebraska) Injury Report Florida Gulf Coast G - Bernard Thompson - Ankle - Probable F - Eric McKnight - Suspension Nebraska G - Ray Gallegos - Suspension (1st of 2 games) G - Deverell Biggs - Suspension (2nd of 3 games) Scouting Florida Gulf Coast The Eagles open the season Friday night following a historic campaign a year ago. In 2012-13, FGCU went 26-11 and became the first-ever No. 15 seed to advance to the NCAA Sweet 16. The Eagles knocked off second-seeded Georgetown (78-68) and seventh-seeded San Diego State (81-71) to become the first program to win its first two NCAA Tournament games since 1987. FGCU also knocked off ACC champion Miami, another Sweet 16 club, during its record-breaking season a year ago. While Andy Enfield left to take the USC job in the offseason, new coach Joe Dooley inherited a stocked roster for his first season. Husker fans will remember Dooley from his previous stop, as he was an assistant coach under Bill Self at Kansas for the last 10 seasons. The Eagles, who return four starters this season, were chosen by both the coaches and media as the favorite in the Atlantic Sun Conference, while guards Brett Comer and Benard Thompson and forward Chase Fieler were selected to the preseason All-Atlantic Sun team. Comer led the Atlantic Sun Conference and ranked 14th in the nation for assists (6.6 per game) last year and earned A-Sun Tournament MVP honors following his 21-point effort against top-seeded Mercer in the A-Sun final. Comer had a pair of double-doubles in the NCAA Tournament and averaged 10.3 assists in FGCU’s three NCAA games. Comer averaged 8.0 points per game as a sophomore. Fieler, the only senior on the roster, started all 37 games last year and averaged 12.1 points and 5.4 rebounds per game while shooting 56.3 percent. He also totaled 59 dunks last year, while reaching double figures in scoring 28 times. Thompson was the A-Sun Defensive Player of the Year in 2012-13 after ranking second nationally with 102 steals and fifth in steals per game (2.76). Thompson was also the second leading scorer (14.3 ppg) and rebounder (4.4 rpg). The Eagles will be without their fourth starter for Friday’s opener as Eric McKnight, who began his collegiate career at Iowa State, will miss the first six games of the season because of a suspension. He started 34 games last year, averaging 6.5 points and 4.4 rebounds per contest.

  4. November 4, 2013 7:05 PM CT - Big Ten Digital Network/Husker Sports Network Pinnacle Bank Arena (15,147) - Lincoln, NE EXHIBITION Nebraska-Kearney Lopers 0-0 (2012-13: 7-19, 4-14 MIAA) vs Nebraska Cornhuskers 0-0 (2012-13: 15-18, 5-13 B1G) Head Coaches Nebraska-Kearney Tom Kropp (449-222 at UNK) Nebraska Tim Miles (298-238, 15-18 at Nebraska) Injury Report Nebraska-Kearney F - Mike Dentlinger - Illness - Doubtful Nebraska G - Deverell Biggs - Suspension Scouting Nebraska-Kearney Nebraska-Kearney visits Lincoln for an exhibition game looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2012-13 season. The Lopers went 7-19 on the year, including just 4-14 in their first season in the MIAA. Co-Head Coaches Tom Kropp and Kevin Lofton have retooled their roster, as just five letterwinners, including two starters, are back while adding 10 transfers. Kropp was a legendary two-sport athlete at UNK and was drafted by both the NBA and NFL before playing in the NBA. He has guided the Lopers to 20 wins or more in 11 seasons of his 18 seasons, including 10 NCAA appearances. Senior Mike Dentlinger is the Lopers’ top returnee, as he averaged 12.2 points and 4.8 rebounds per game, but he is not expected to play Monday because of an ailment. Junior Tyler Shields will be expected to be one of the leaders for UNK, as he averaged 10.3 points per game, including 58 3-pointer, and a team-high 6.8 rebounds per contest. Senior Kendal Glidden anchors the frontcourt, as he averaged 5.2 points on a team-best 60.7 field goal percentage and 2.9 rebounds per game. One name which will be familiar to Husker fans is Connor Beranek, who is the younger brother of former Husker and Loper Drake Beranek. He averaged 15.9 points and 8.0 rebounds at Doane College in 2012-13.
