KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Missouri State men’s basketball team lost for the first time this season 85-62 to No. 24 Nebraska.
“(It’s) nothing to hang our heads about,” head coach Dana Ford said. “That’s a really good team. I thought we did some things well, and then in the second half, obviously we didn’t defend them very well ... It was a challenge for our guys to defend them.”
In the first semifinal of the Hall of Fame Classic, the Bears put up a fight but couldn’t get enough of a run going to defeat the Huskers.
