Nebrasketball Final: Penn State 56 Nebraska 55

Shavon Shields makes his return in Happy Valley but the Big Red can't pull out a win against the Nittany Lions

Nebraska traveled to Happy Valley and got themselves in a hole and came oh so close to digging themselves out.

At the worst, they were down 18 points. Many thought it was over at that point. But there's one thing the Huskers do well and that's not give up. No matter how bad the game is, Nebraska doesn't give up and it almost paid off.

With almost 50 seconds left in the game the Huskers had brought the game to a 55-55 tie with two well placed Michael Jacobson free throws.
