Minnesota had a huge win over Nebraska after a rather embarrassing loss to Ohio State to draw even in conference play. Amir Coffey exploded in the win over the Cornhuskers going for 32 points on the night on 8/16 shooting.

Minnesota also won easy match ups against Arkansas State and North Florida. The Golden Gophers will play against North Carolina A&T next Friday and look to continue an impressive start.

Nebraska suffered the rough loss to Minnesota but bounced back with a big 20 point victory over Creighton last time out. The Cornhuskers were led by James Palmer Jr. who put up 30 points on 9/12 shooting in the big win.

Nebraska, 1-1 in conference play, hosts Oklahoma State Sunday.
