huskeraddict Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 November 16, 2014 1pm CT - BTN Plus (Subscription Required) Pinnacle Bank Arena (15,147) - Lincoln, NE Northern Kentucky Norse 0-1 (Last: 62-31 L vs Wisconsin) vs #21 Nebraska Cornhuskers 0-0 (2013-14: 19-13, 11-7 B1G) Head Coaches Northern Kentucky Dave Bezold (181-116 at NKU) Nebraska Tim Miles (317-251, 34-31 at Nebraska) Injury Report Northern Kentucky No injuries to report Nebraska F - Leslee Smith - Knee - Out indefinitely Scouting Northern Kentucky The Norse wrap up a two-game Big Ten swing on Sunday after opening the season against Wisconsin on Friday night. Dave Bezold is in his 11th season at Northern Kentucky and has guided the program from Division II to the Division I ranks. The Norse, who are eligible to compete in the Atlantic Sun Tournament for the first time this season, are in their third season in the Division I ranks and were picked to finish fifth in the Atlantic Sun in a preseason vote by both the coaches and the media. Prior to making the move, the Norse were one of the best programs in Division II, winning 20 or more games in five of its last six seasons and making the national tournament in 2011-12. NKU looks to improve after going 9-21 last year, but returns its top six scorers and 13 of its 14 players. Senior guard Jordan Jackson leads the Norse, averaging 13.5 points and 5.0 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game as a junior. Junior guard Tyler White joined Jackson in double figures with 10.8 points per game, including 49 3-pointers. In addition to returning its top six scorers, NKU also regains the services of fifth-year senior Chad Jackson, a two-year starter who averaged 10.1 points per game in 2012-13 before redshirting last season. 2 Quote Link to comment

huskeraddict Posted November 16, 2014 Author Share Posted November 16, 2014 Huskers take a 45-30 lead into halftime. Nebraska is shooting exactly 50% from the field on 13/26, 38.5% on 5/13 from beyond the arc, and are 14/18 from the foul line. They've pulled in 19 rebounds, 15 defensive. 6 team assists paired with 2 turnovers that came off of offensive fouls. Terran Petteway is your high scorer with 16 at the break. Quote Link to comment
