LINCOLN, NEB. ? The Nebraska men’s basketball team heads into Big 12 Conference play riding a surge of momentum after beating St. Francis (Pa.), 93-49, Tuesday night.

“I think it meant a lot for us to jump on them and stay on them like that,” Marcus Neal said. “It gives us a lot of confidence going into the Big 12. It’s a matter of everybody believing in ourselves. I guess you could call it a swagger.”

Nate Johnson led the Huskers with 19 points, Andrew Drevo had 14, and Wes Wilkinson, John Turek and Neal had 10 each.
