Two very different halves makes for an interesting evaluation...
Pete Nance had a really big game and deserves most of the credit for the victory.
We were a mess in the first half.
The ineffective frontcourt combo of Ryan Young and Robbie Beran got outscored 14-1 in under 4 minutes in the first half. Thats reaaaallly bad.
The other "please don't play these guys together" combo (Berry and Roper) played a lot and was outscored 32-26 in 14 minutes.
The usually effective backcourt combo of Buie and Greer really struggled as part of the Young/Beran fiasco before Greer was benched for the night with 4:26 left in the first half.
Robbie Beran was benched at 16:39 with Nebraska leading 45-33. From there Elyjah Williams stepped up with Pete Nance for a 20-11 run over the next 6 minutes.
After a 6-4 setback with Young and Williams, Collins paired Young and Nance for the final 7 minute stretch, which NU won 14-7 to claim the victory.
Young and Nance were particularly effective controlling the paint, while Audige struggled for the last 10:44.
