The 6-foot-6 junior guard went 5-of-8 from 3-point range and is third in the Big Ten in 3-point percentage (.482) heading into the weekend. Thorbjarnarson is averaging 7.8 points per game this season, including 12.0 ppg in conference action.

Skinny (from another site :Redface:)

The Skinny:
Previously in Bloomington, Nebraska pushed Indiana to the limit, falling in overtime in a high scoring affair 96-90. Jackson-Davis lead the way for Indiana with 25 and 4 Hoosiers scored in double figures. Nebraska also had 4 players in double figures with Dachon Burke scoring a season high 25 including the 3 that sent the game to OT.

Indiana might try and slow things down like road teams tend to do, but it's not really their style offensively so this game should see plenty of points. Nebraska is going to try and pack the paint defensively and Indiana will spend most of the game trying to work it in there; both teams excel at this. If the Hoosiers get hot from the outside, the Huskers are in trouble. Indiana has been sloppy with the ball so look for Nebraska's defense to be a catalyst to easy points. Offensively, Nebraska needs to continue to not turn the ball over and hit shots. Indiana typically defends well but not quite as well on the road.

Free Throws will most likely dictate this game as Indiana relies on them and tends to get them in bunches, ranked #2 in FTA/FGA%. On the flip side Nebraska has become elite at not fouling, a staple of Hoiberg defenses. The Huskers rank #2 in FTA/FGA% defense. The refs are most likely going to decide this one. Openly boo anything resembling preference for Indiana.

Can Nebraska win at home again like most everyone else in the conference?

Prediction: Nebraska 78 - Indiana 72 with a 87% chance of Runzas
