Cats led start to finish. Not a lot of drama in this rematch against the overmatched Cornhuskers.

Pete Nance had a nice bounceback game, going 4 of 5 from distance and 8 of 11 overall, with 5 assists.
Audige did a lot of things right, but continued his poor 3 point shooting. (2 of 7 from 3, 4 of 4 from inside the arc, 5 assists, 4 rebounds)
Ryan Greer did not have a good game. He and Buie didn't play together until the last 4 minutes, when they closed out the game with Nance, Beran and Audige.
That 5 man lineup has not been good for NU this year, getting outscored 55-41 in 25 minutes.
If you want to play Nance, Beran, Buie and Greer together, the 5th guy has to be Roper (67-49 in 29 minutes).
But really, we should play Buie and Greer together often, just not with Audige.
When Buie and Greer play and Audige is on the bench, we are ahead 303-245 in 157 minutes. (thats a 77-62 pace)

Yet again, an opportunity to get MN some decent minutes to develop his skills goes by the wayside.

Simmons didn't play either.
Has to be confusing for him. 17 minutes against Minnesota, played better than most of our guys, then back to zero minutes against the hapless Huskers.

We only had a 21 point lead with 7:20 to go, so obviously Coach Collins didn't want to risk it.

I'd say that indicates how little he trusts his players, but a few people would get very upset.
