The Minute After: Nebraska
Thoughts on an 85-70 loss to Nebraska:
The Cornhuskers came to Bloomington losers of all seven of their Big Ten road games. Those losses came by an average of 12.4 points.
But tonight? They were victorious, easily leaving Bloomington with a 15-point victory.
It’s been that kind of season for the Hoosiers, where home-court advantage no longer exists. Indiana has now lost four of five at Assembly Hall, with three of those coming by double digits. Purdue thumped the Hoosiers by 21. The Nittany Lions beat them by 14. And then there was tonight’s 15-point loss.
Indiana’s first half was abysmal. The Hoosiers never led and went into halftime down 20 points (51-31), as boos rained down from the crowd.
