In those eight losses, of which two were to ranked teams:
» What was NU’s biggest lead? Six points over Purdue early in the first half.
» How many times did NU fall behind by double digits? In all eight, ranging from 11 to 31 points.
» How many times did NU lead at halftime? Zero.
» How many minutes has NU led in the second half? Out of 160 minutes, 3:16. It all came against Maryland, when the Huskers went up 38-34. That means Nebraska has held the lead 2 percent of the time after halftime in this stretch.
» How many minutes has NU led overall? Out of 320 minutes, 27:44. That’s 8.7 percent.
Bluntly, Nebraska’s chances to win in that stretch have been nonexistent, other than one possession to tie No. 16 Maryland in the final 30 seconds. That ended with a turnover.
