On a field goal from Teddy Allen in the final seconds of the game, the Nebraska men's basketball team defeated Penn State, 62-61, on Sunday in State College, Pa. The win is the Huskers' first conference victory since defeating Iowa 76-70 on Jan. 7, 2020.
Allen's basket with 12 seconds to play ended an eight and a half minute scoring drought for the Huskers (5-12,1-9 Big Ten) and was just his second of two made field goals of the half. The junior led Nebraska with 14 points in the contest.
Nebraska came out firing to start the second half with the team scoring the first five points of the half as Trey McGowens netting the first three.
