Last time out, Nebraska took down #20 Michigan State 85-80. The Huskers put on a great defensive game and kept the energy up throughout the game and the depth of the bench really showed up. Alexis Markowski had a season high 28 points and was two rebounds shy of another double double. Rutgers has proven to give Nebraska a bit of trouble the last few years, so the defensive game is going to be big again. Having a balanced scoring attack is also going to be super important if Nebraska wants to get their first road win of the season.
