Now, it’s happened twice in less than two months after the Huskers beat Minnesota and No. 18 Illinois-Chicago at the Devaney Sports Center on Saturday afternoon.
It came down to the final rotation, with the Huskers were on the high bars and the Gophers on the vault.
“The vault is a higher scoring event, everyone knows that, Husker coach Chuck Chmelka said. “It’s just the way it is in gymnastics, and everyone knows it. We just came together and said, ‘Let’s just go hit. High bar party. We need this.’”
The Huskers came through to give NU a 404.
