In a winnable game, Indiana couldn’t get out of its own way on Tuesday night, falling to Nebraska 66-57 at Pinnacle Bank Arena.
The Hoosiers (16-13, 9-8 Big Ten) had a bevy of opportunities, but a season-high tying 19 turnovers made victory nearly impossible.
“Lack of toughness, lack of confidence, I don’t know what it was,” Archie Miller said postgame. “Maybe the road environment scared them a little bit. I’m not sure. But some of them just didn’t make a whole lotta sense.”
Despite a subpar performance, Indiana was well within range of the Cornhuskers (21-9, 12-5) until the final minutes.
