• Former Charlotte guard Brice Williams also flirted with a double-double versus the Broncs, and he’s second on the team with 11.7 ppg and 5.0 rpg.

• Junior guard C.J. Wilcher scored 13 points in both wins over Jacksonville and Rider.

• NEB is 2-0 ATS, with a 1-1 over/under record.

Corey’s Free Pick

Nebraska did well bringing in Rienk Mast via transfer portal, and another big game from him should lead to another double-digit victory for Nebraska. The Cornhuskers didn’t shoot very well against Rider, and if they come out a bit sharper here at home, they can lay the points here for us. The Under could be in play due to a potential lopsided game, but let’s back Nebraska for this Cornhusker Classic matchup.
