Nebrasketball: Hoiberg Living Large on Island Time - Beating Washington State For Third Straight Win

The Huskers, off to a hot and cold start to begin Fred Hoiberg’s first season in Lincoln, traveled to the Cayman islands to take on the Washington State Cougars.

What fans are (probably) dubbing the “Battle of Bill Moos”, was broadcast exclusively on FloHoops. The Cougars are also with a first-year head coach and sitting at 2-2, including one of those losses to Omaha.

The Huskers are hoping that Nebraskan teams are the Cougars’ kryptonite. Both teams have struggled to shoot the ball this season, especially from behind the line. Nebraska is hitting around 30% of their threes, with Washington State a little lower at 27%.
