Fred Hoiberg's Huskers blew the Jays out of the water with a 71-50 win in Lincoln. What does this mean? Well, for the FIRST time since the 1990s, Nebrasketball will not only look to have three straight wins vs the Bluejays, but also 3 straight wins vs Creighton in Omaha. Nebraska has taken down Creighton on their home floor in their last two meetings with wins in 2022 (74-63) and 2024 (63-53). The Huskers will also look to tie the all-time series where CU leads 30-29. Hoiberg vs Huss. What else has changed?At the end of last season, Creighton's longtime headcoach Gred McDermott retired which means the Huskers will faceoff against a new headcoach for the Bluejays for the first time since the 2010-2011 season. This will be the first meeting for Fred Hoiberg's squad against the Jays' new head coach Alan Huss but lets not forget about the changes to the Nebrasetball squad. Hoiberg will look to replace the scoring and leadership from Reink Mast, Sam Hoiberg and Jamarques Lawrence they had last year. Mast (20pts) and Hoibger (15pts) were the top two scorers for the Huskers when they defeated Creighton lin 2025 and will need to replace those points. Pryce Sandfort (18.1ppg in 2025-2026), Braden Frager and Cael Jacobsen should be expected to carry the torch that Mast, Hoiberg and Lawrnce had last year. Saturday Dec. 5th: mark it on your calendars, let the in-laws know your'e busy. It'll be another fun night in Omaha for Nebrasketball fans and hopefully, not to much for Jayskers.
