Rutgers split four ranked against ranked matchups with Nebraska.
The issue for the No. 16 Scarlet Knights: They lost the last two of the four, and some critical bouts elsewhere, as the No. 18 Cornhuskers rallied for a 19-13 win at the Devaney Center on Sunday in Lincoln, Nebraska, sealing the win when No. 8 Tyler Berger scored a sudden victory takedown for Nebraska on No. 18 Mike VanBrill 42 seconds into overtime at 157 pounds.
Rutgers (5-4 overall, 1-3 Big Ten) led 9-0 after three bouts and 13-6 after four, but two toss-up losses in the upper weights and a upset defeat for 133-pounder Scott DelVecchio set the stage for a late Nebraska comeback.
