Huskers Resume Rivalry with K-State - University of Nebraska
The Husker men's basketball team resumes one of its oldest rivalries on Sunday afternoon, as Nebraska hosts Kansas State at Pinnacle Bank Arena. Tipoff for the first
huskers.com
Kansas State leads the all-time series, 127-93, but the teams have not played since a 61-57 Wildcat victory in Lincoln on Feb. 23, 2011. This marks the start of a three-year series with future matchups set for both 2022 (Manhattan) and 2023 (Kansas City).
The Huskers (5-6) have been off for final exams since a 99-68 loss against No. 18 Auburn in Atlanta on Dec. 11. That day, the Huskers ran into a red-hot Tiger squad that shot 51 percent from the field and went 14-of-31 from 3-point range. Auburn forced NU into a season-high 20 turnovers and turned them into 30 points. NU entered the contest in the top-20 nationally in turnover rate, but struggled against the Tigers' pressure.
The Wildcats have never played at Pinnacle Bank Arena. Kansas State comes into the matchup with a 6-3 record following a 82-64 win over Green Bay on Sunday. Markquis Nowell led three Wildcats in double figures with 22 points and eight assists, as KSU shot 62 percent in the first half in building a 46-30 halftime lead. Ismael Massoud added 17 points, while Mark Smith had 14 points and 10 boards for Kansas State, which shot 55 percent and had just eight turnovers. The Wildcats' best win in non-conference play was a 65-59 win at Wichita State, while their three losses have been neutral-site losses to Illinois and Arkansas as well as a one-point loss to Marquette on Dec. 8.
