Hustle Part Of Winning Formula For Huskers

Thorir Thorbjarnarson deflected an Iowa pass in the paint. The basketball fell to the court and bounced away, and the battle for the loose ball began.

Nebraska's 6-foot-2 guard Charlie Easley versus Iowa's 6-foot-11 center Luka Garza.

By now, Husker fans surely know to not bet against the freshman walk-on from Lincoln, no matter the competition.

Remember the clip of Easley putting his rump into Purdue center Matt Haarms to not only successfully box out, but frustrate the 7-foot-3 center?

"I'm not going to shy away from anybody. I'm not scared of anybody," Easley said.
