Nebraska moves up a couple of spots thanks to a big win over Big 12 opponent Oklahoma State. The Cornhuskers defeated the Cowboys 79-56 and senior guard James Palmer Jr. had yet another great game scoring 29 points and sinking 14/15 from the free throw line.

Palmer Jr. has had big games for Nebraska all season as he currently leads the team in scoring with a 19.6 ppg average. The Cornhuskers will take on Cal State Fullerton on Saturday with hopes to continue their hot start.

Both Maryland and MInnesota did not have a game to talk about this past week but both teams stayed around the middle of the ranking and look to continue their impressive 9-2 starts to the season. Minnesota takes on North Carolina A&T this Friday and Maryland will look to defeat Big East foe Seton Hall.
