Husker Men Knocked Out In Big XII Tournement Opener

The Nebraska Mens basketball team fell 53 -52 to the Oklahoma State Cowboys earlier this afternoon,in the first round of the Big 12 tournament.
Senior guard,Lance Jeter drove through the lane with seconds ticking away,but he tripped over OSU forward,Matt Pilgrim at the buzzer. Nebraska had its final attempt at a basket after Oky-States,Keiton Page,a 90% free-throw shooter,missed his 2nd free-throw. Lance Jeter got the rebound,but got tripped up. Game over. The Huskers just might of witnessed the most disappointing loss in all of Head coach Doc Sadlers 5 years of coaching at Nebraska. Its a shame.
Jeter scored 17 points to lead the Huskers. Nebraska rallied from a 12-point deficit in the first half and led by 4 with 5:54 left to play in the game. Oklahoma State responded with back to back 3-pointers
from Page,to top the Huskers by 2 with 3:38 left to play. Nebraska's Brandon Ubel shot a 3-pointer,drew a foul and changed the score to its final stand,53 to 52. Hey,we can't say they didn't try. The Huskers will return to Lincoln tomorrow where they will await their seeding for the National Invitation Tournament. Man,its been one roller-coaster season for the Huskers. Win some here,win some there. And most of our losses have been by,get this,1 point!! God knows what He's doing with this team. He obviously didn't want us to go to the NCAA tournament this season. He may have bigger plans for this team,plans beyond our wildest imagination!! Gods plans are always better then ours. But,we have pride in saying that we beat the undefeated Texas Longhorns earlier on in the season. That in itself says enough. GO BIG RED!!
