Huskers Upset Indiana
Nebraska Gets Their Second Big Ten Win
Lincoln, NE - Jorge Brian Diaz hit two free throws with 11.0 seconds left to cap Nebraska's comeback, as the Husker stunned Indiana, 70-69, at the Devaney Center Wednesday evening.
Nebraska trailed 69-68 when Jordan Hulls missed the front end of a 1-and-1, and Brandon Richardson got the rebound to give the Huskers a final possession. NU gave the ball to Bo Spencer, who drove the lane and found Diaz under the hoop and drew contact.
Diaz, who was 4-of-5 from the line and finished with 10 points and four rebounds, then calmly sank both free throws to give Nebraska (10-8, 2-5 Big Ten) its first lead since the 14 minute mark of the first half. Indiana (15-4, 3-4 Big Ten) had a final possession, but Hulls missed inside on a scoop shot before his despiration 3-pointer at the buzzer was off the mark, giving the Huskers a much-needed win over a ranked foe.
