The Huskers look to continue on a roll at Pinnacle Bank Arena, as they are 18-1 since moving into the facility following an 80-67 win over Omaha Tuesday night. Nebraska is riding an 11-game home win streak dating back to last January.

On Tuesday, the Huskers received an outstanding performance from Shavon Shields, who had a career-high 35 points, including four 3-pointers, and eight rebounds. The junior wing is second in the Big Ten at 23.5 points per game and is sixth in rebounding at 8.0 per game. Shields was one of three Huskers in double figures in the win over UNO.
Nebraska has been strong offensively, putting up 80 or more points in each of its first three home games, the first time since the 1995-96 season that Nebraska has scored at least 80 points in its first three home games. It is also the first time since 2006-07 that the Huskers have scored 80 or more points in three consecutive home contests.

Tennessee-Martin comes to town riding a three-game win streak following a 74-56 win at Bethune Cookman on Tuesday. Tonight’s game will be the second of six straight road games for the Skyhawks, as they will not play another home game until Dec. 20. UT-Martin is coached by Heath Schroyer, who served as the head coach of Wyoming for four seasons while Nebraska Coach Tim Miles was at Colorado State.
