Film Session: Nebraska
On Wednesday night, Nebraska employed many of the same defensive tactics Rutgers used against Trayce Jackson-Davis over the weekend. The Cornhuskers threw a zone at Indiana. They double-teamed Jackson-Davis. They put an extra defender in the paint on the pick-and-roll.
But the differences were stark.
The Cornhuskers weren’t as together as the Scarlet Knights in their schemes. And Indiana, unlike in Piscataway, did a much better job from distance, going 11-of-25 as opposed to 6-of-25.
All this allowed Jackson-Davis to get more assists, which aided his ability to lock down the third triple-double in IU basketball history.
