James Palmer made two free throws with 1.1 seconds left to lift Nebraska to a 62-61 win over Minnesota and end the Huskers seven-game losing streak.
Palmer's two shots ended a tense final four minutes for the Huskers, who took a 59-55 lead on Isaiah Roby's layup with 4:06 left, then didn't make a field goal the rest of the way.
Palmer finished with 24 points. On the game-clinching play, he was fouled shooting a double-clutch baseline jumper as the clock bled down. After making the first free throw to tie the game, Palmer drilled the second after a Minnesota timeout, and the Gophers' ensuing inbounds play went for naught.
