Men's Basketball Heads to Frigid Midwest to Take on Nebraska
12/22/2008
Lincoln, Neb.--It has been 12 years since a UMBC men's basketball team has taken on a member of the Big 12 Conference and nearly 20 years since the Retrievers last faced the Nebraska Cornhuskers. But those long streaks come to an end on Tuesday, Dec. 23, as UMBC faces NU at the Devaney Center with a 8:07 p.m. (EST) tip-off time. UMBC (5-5) is trying to shake off a two-game losing streak, while Nebraska (7-2) tries to extend its home winning streak to seven in a row this season. The game will also be available online via ESPN360.com -- ESPN's signature broadband sports TV network.
