About Nebraska
Scouting Nebraska (5-0)
The Huskers enter the intrastate battle with the Bluejays sporting an unblemished record, claiming four home wins as well as an overtime victory at Missouri. Nebraska was specifically impressive on Wednesday night as the Huskers took down Southern 73-39.
A deep squad, Nebraska has played nine members of its squad at least 11.2 minutes per game this season. The Huskers' leading scorer is reserve Leigha Brown with 78 points (15.6 ppg).
In the opening five games Nebraska has scored just under 75 points per contest (74.4) and allowed 54.8 ppg.
Scouting Creighton (3-1)
Creighton also comes into Pinnacle Bank Arena with an impressive mark at 3-1. Similarly the Bluejays have nine players averaging better than 11.8 minutes per game. For the Bluejays, however, the key to their early season success has been on defense. Creighton is allowing just 56.0 ppg and is forcing 16.5 turnovers per contest.
Senior Jaylyn Agnew leads Creighton with 16.3 points per game, but three different Bluejays have posted a 20+ point game in the first four contest (Agnew as well as juniors Temi Carda and Tatum Rembao).
Creighton will be playing its third road game in the first five, alternating between road and home battles.
Flanery versus Williams
Jim Flanery and Nebraska head coach Amy Williams have faced off during each of the past seven seasons, with Flanery getting the best of the exchanges, 5-2. Williams, however, led her squad to victories in both WNIT matchups. Williams was the coach at South Dakota for four seasons (12-13 to 15-16) before taking the reins of the Huskers three seasons ago.
