Northwestern-Nebraska final score: Wildcats roar back, beat Nebraska 74-66

That is how you bounce back.

Northwestern (13-4, 2-2) gutted out a hard-fought win on the road against a very good Nebraska team (9-7, 3-1), as the Wildcats used improved three-point shooting to end the Cornhuskers’ unbeaten streak in conference play.

The Wildcats made 11 triples on the night, and also sank 13 of their 14 free throw attempts in a shooting display that quelled all fears after Thursday’s loss against Minnesota.

Scottie Lindsey paced the Wildcats with 19 points, 15 of which came in the second half, and Vic Law added 15 of his own all from behind the arc.
