I saw it was close late, looked for it but didn't find a channel that had it on. Probably should have checked ESPN+. I don't have BTN+. 3 OT's, a classic.

Nebraska Public Media (over-the-air channel 26.1) had the game. I think they had the Wyoming game last weekend, too. To stream it, I think it was on BTN+ but only if you're a subscriber.

Big Red made 5-of-6 3s as part of a 30-point first quarter. Nebraska was up 20-3 at one point during that scorching start.

Jaz Shelley was 1 of 50 players named to the Wooden Watch list. She is also 1 of 20 shooting guards nationally in the hunt for the Ann Meyers-Drysdale Award, was a preseason first-team All-Big Ten selection, and was also a first-team All-Big Ten guard last season.
