Huskers Stun No. 11 Indiana

The Nebraska men’s basketball team’s floundering season got a major boost last night. The Huskers got their biggest win of the season, topping 11th-ranked Indiana 70-69 at the Devaney Center. Jorge Brian Diaz hit a pair of free throws with 11 seconds to play to provide the winning points for the Big Red, as Indiana missed two shots on the other end before the buzzer sounded. The Huskers trailed by seven points at the half and were down by 13 with 14 minutes to play, but steadily cut into the Hoosier lead before Diaz’s heroics gave them their first lead since early in the first half. Bo Spencer paced the Husker attack with 23 points. It’s the ninth time in coach Doc Sadler’s six season the Huskers have beaten a ranked team. They’re now 2-5 in Big Ten play. Nebraska hosts 6th-ranked Ohio State on Saturday.
