Indiana Basketball Can't Knock Off Undefeated Nebraska ...

The Cornhuskers overcame a 16-point halftime deficit with a 50-28 run to defeat Indiana 83-77 and extend their season record to 16-0, led by Jamarques Lawrence's 27 points.

  • Saturday, Nebraska Cornhuskers men's basketball team rallied from a 16-point deficit to beat Indiana 83-77, remaining undefeated at 16-0.
  • Trailing 49-33 with 17:42 left, the Cornhuskers—betting underdogs—faced a steep hill before mounting a late surge against the Hoosiers.
  • Guard Jamarques Lawrence paced the comeback with 27 points, surpassing his prior career high set Nov. 20, while Rienk Mast's 3-pointer salted Nebraska's 83-77 win.
  • The win already eclipsed Fred Hoiberg's combined 14 wins and positions Nebraska for a potential third straight 20-win season, barring a collapse.
  • Nebraska will travel home to meet Oregon Tuesday, with a date with the Michigan Wolverines looming two weeks later on Jan. 27 as one of six teams undefeated into 2026.
