Friday Flakes: Nebraska Volleyball is in Small Company with Connecticut Women’s Basketball
| Photo by David Buono/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images For most of my life it was Geno” Auriemma and Connecticut Women’s basketball which was the height of women’s sports.

UConn women’s basketball and... |

Nebraska WBB Wins The Border Battle Against Iowa 87-84
| Nebraska Husker Athletics Clutch OT free throws help Nebraska surpass Iowa This game had all the action and also gave me a heart attack/massive PTSD because of the last time we went to OT with Iowa. Defense, three pointers, and OT free throws helped Nebraska close this thriller out. The bench stepped up big when key parts of the lineup fouled out, which is something we are going to need later on in the year. Starting lineup stays the same. First Quarter Alexis Markowski gets... |
