Remember the scene in the movie "Major League" when Pedro Cerrano wants to sacrifice a chicken in the locker room to try and break out of his hitting slump?

Tuesday's 66-47 loss to UC Riverside continued a trend that has befallen the Huskers for just about all of 2019. Since Jan. 10, when Nebraska played its first game of the new year against Penn State, the Huskers are shooting a lower percentage from the field at home than they are on the road.
