Michigan State is without their head coach, Suzy Merchant because of a car crash. We send our best wishes to coach for a speedy recovery!
First Quarter
The Huskers needed a quick start and they got it behind some good three point shooting (it seems like a while since we could say that) and offensive rebounding. The Spartans lead the Big Ten in offensive rebounds, so that is notable. At the media timeout, the Huskers led 14-6. The Huskers also have two blocked shots already (Shelley and Bourne).
MSU made one and missed one free throw out of the break (14-7 Neb).
