Following their heartbreaking one-point loss to Purdue over the weekend, Maryland will hit the road again when they face Nebraska on Friday night. The Cornhuskers are having a season to forget, with a 7-18 (1-13) record, their lone conference win coming against Minnesota last week. They're the only team with a worse conference record than the Terps.
They're led by the backcourt of senior Alonzo Verge, Jr. and freshman Bryce McGowens. The two combine to average just over 30 points per game for Nebraska. They're the worst offensive unit in the conference, but one of the fastest teams in the country. As a team, they're shooting 43% from the field and 31% from beyond the arc.
