Nebrasketball: James Palmer’s Career Night Can’t Push Huskers Over Buckeyes

James Palmer Jr. scores 34 points as Nebraska falls just short to Ohio State 64-59.

After a huge 20 point victory over No. 25 Michigan last Thursday, the Huskers really needed another win over a top 25 ranked team in No. 13 Ohio State for their NCAA tournament resume. Although the Huskers move to 1-6 on the road this season, this game was in no means a “must-win”, for those games start now.

Right off the bat this game had the feel of a defensive type of night, with both teams a combined 1-of-11 from the field at the U16 media timeout. It went like that for a little longer, then Jordy Tshimanga came in.

Tshimanga provided a spark right away, getting an offensive rebound and putting it back up for a basket, then making a jump hook on the baseline during the next possession. Unfortunately Tshimanga got called for two “fouls” and had to come out after playing for just two minutes.
