Game Overview:
A slow start out of the gates for both teams, but Nebraska’s defense held strong while the offense started to heat up. Unfortunately for Murray State, theirs never did in the first half.
Murray State was only 1-11 at the 12-minute mark and Nebraska had started to build a lead they would never relinquish. Nebraska went on a 16-0 run to push the lead to 22-4 by the 9-minute mark, and they never looked back.
