Huskers Fall in Overtime at Penn State
University Park, Pa. – Tony Carr’s jumper with 2.7 seconds remaining in overtime thwarted Nebraska’s comeback bid and gave Penn State a 76-74 win over the Huskers Friday night.
Nebraska took a 68-65 lead on Isaiah Roby’s 3-pointer with 3:36 left in the extra session, but Carr, who was 2-of-17 in regulation, tied it up on the subsequent possession with a 3-pointer of his own. Roby, who finished with 12 and six rebounds, hit a pair of free throws with 2:50 left, but the Nittany Lions tied the score at 70-all on a putback from Nazeer Bostick with 1:43 left.
