Nebrasketball: Thrilling Husker Comeback Falls Short to Northwestern

Fresh off a big upset win over Iowa, Nebraska will look to hit a .500 and a 3-2 record five games into their conference schedule. They are visiting the struggling Northwestern Wildcats, who have struggled in their five-game losing streak, including being the only Big Ten team without a win.

In those five losses, however, four of them were by five points or less, so the test may be a little tougher for a Husker squad that has lost to Southern Utah and North Dakota, among others. Should be an interesting game.

Northwestern got the game going early, scoring a quick two to open it up.
