Instant analysis: Jalen Smith leads No. 24 Maryland past Nebraska, 60-45

Maryland men’s basketball freshman Jalen Smith spent more than 30 minutes after practice ended Tuesday afternoon getting hit with rubber blocking pads by strength coach Kyle Tarp and a couple of team managers trying to toughen up a player called "Stix” around the basket.

What Smith got out of the session materialized Wednesday night against Nebraska at Pinnacle Bank Arena. After another slow start by the Terps, the former McDonald’s All American and Mount Saint Joseph star took it to the reeling Cornhuskers.
