MEN’S BASKETBALL: Iowa State, Nebraska on the rebound

Michael Zogg

After a disappointing loss to Texas on Wednesday, the Cyclones will have little time to recuperate, traveling to Nebraska to take on the Cornhuskers on Saturday.

The Cyclones won’t be the only team trying to bounce back in Lincoln, however, as Nebraska is coming off a similarly disappointing game, an 84-72 home loss to No. 3 Kansas in which they led by one point at halftime. The loss was the team’s first at home this season.

Nebraska is led by senior guard Ryan Anderson, who scores 11.2 points per game and leads the Big 12 with 2.2 steals per game. The Cornhuskers have a balanced team offensively this season with two players averaging double digits and 10 players averaging five points or more.

Junior guard Charles Boozer is questionable for the Cyclones. Boozer injured his knee while driving to the basket against Texas on Wednesday.
