Minnesota Recap
The Nebraska Cornhuskers faced the Minnesota Golden Gophers for the second time this season, and avenged their 79-61 loss earlier this year in Dinkytown with a clutch 78-74 win in Lincoln led in huge ways by senior Husker guard and longtime resident Nordic God Thorir Thorbjarnarson.

As for the action Saturday night in Lincoln, Thor got the start and iced the finish with two clutch free throws to push the lead to its final four point margin. Thor finished the game with 10 points, while also grabbing four boards and dishing two crucial assists late during Minnesota’s furious comeback from 13-down to a single possession with 2:39 left and again numerous times down the stretch.
The Nebraska Cornhuskers are back in Lincoln and kick off a two-game home stand starting with the Purdue Boilermakers late this afternoon. The game marks the 23rd all-time meeting between the two.
