UCF vs Nebraska
(NCAAB) Cornhuskers (NEB) vs. Knights (UCF),
Point Spread: 4.50 | -120.00 Knights (UCF) (Home)
Result: Loss
The Huskers played a pretty even game with Boise, except for one tiny detail. Nebraska shot 64% from beyond the arc, making 12 threes with the Broncs making just six. That 18-point deficit was impossible to make up. Today, Nebraska is going to see a Knights team that plays much better 3-point defense than Boise. They have been on a scoring binge in this tournament, scoring 88 twice in regulation and 76 in the other one. UCF is a little better free-throw shooting team, and that could be critical in crunch time. This one looks like a toss-up, so I’ll gladly take the points.
