The No. 6 seed Nebraska women’s basketball team hunts for the third NCAA Sweet Sixteen bid in school history when the Huskers square off with No. 3 seed Oregon State in the second round of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday in Corvallis, Ore.

Scouting the Oregon State Beavers
Coach Scott Rueck leads No. 3 seed Oregon State into Sunday’s NCAA Tournament second-round game.
  • Rueck is trying to lead the AP No. 12 Beavers (25-7) to their fifth NCAA Sweet Sixteen since 2016, and their sixth overall in program history.
  • Oregon State’s seven losses this season have all come to top-25 opponents from the Pac-12.
  • The Beavers are 12-0 against non-conference opponents this season.
  • The Beavers have allowed just 59.5 points per game, while scoring 71.7 points per contest.
Oregon State is led by All-Pac-12 forward Raegan Beers. The 6-4 sophomore is averaging team bests of 17.8 points and 10.4 rebounds per game. She has hit 66.2 percent of her field goal attempts. She also leads the Beavers with 34 blocked shots and 36 steals on the season.
  • OSU starts two juniors in Talia von Oelhoffen (10.7 ppg, 4.1 rpg, 4.8 apg) and AJ Marotte (5.4 ppg, 1.9 rpg) alongside the sophomore Beers and true freshmen Donovyn Hunter (6.8 ppg, 2.3 rpg, 3.6 apg) and Pac-12 Sixth Player-of-the-Year Timea Gardiner (11.2 ppg, 6.7 rpg).
Overall, Oregon State features eight shooters who have hit double-digit threes on the season. The balanced shooting and strength inside allows the Beavers to spread the floor. It also has helped OSU become a dominant rebounding team with a plus-7.6 margin (40.1-32.5) on the glass, even though opponents average nearly one more offensive rebound per game. The Beavers also carry a minus-4.1 turnover margin, forcing just 9.2 turnovers per contest.

The Lady Huskers will have to bring their AAA Game and play Stellar Defense vs Oregon State.
 
Of the 32 First Round games, only one lower seed won in the women’s tournament. In the men’s tournament, 11 of the 32 games went to the lower seeded team, including a 14, 13, 12 and three 11 seeds.
Real parity on the men’s side, none showing among the women. Nebraska needs to make that change.
 
Tough row to hoe, folks! Home game for the Beavers!! Oregon State is tough enough, without having to play them on their home court!

Tip-off set for 6 minutes after the hour.
There's over six minutes left with a colorado kansas state game
Again, screwed by tight scheduling!
 
I hope they wait but I doubt it. Didn't wait the last game either
