Nebraska Cornhuskers Face Southern University Jaguars at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Women's Basketball Clash

As the Nebraska Cornhuskers prepare to host the Southern University Jaguars at Pinnacle Bank Arena, fans are buzzing with anticipation for what promises to be an electrifying game of women's basketball. The Cornhuskers have been on a formidable run, and their recent performances suggest that they're not about to slow down.

In their last outing on December 9 against the Michigan State Spartans, NEB showcased their offensive prowess by putting up 80 points and demonstrating a balanced attack across all four quarters. Their field goal percentage stood at an impressive 48 percent, while they converted 43 percent from beyond the arc. With such shooting efficiency, it's clear that NEB has found a rhythm in their offense that could prove challenging for any defense.

The defensive side of the ball was equally strong for NEB as they managed to snag five steals and block three shots against MSU. This defensive tenacity will be crucial when facing SOU, who will undoubtedly look to disrupt NEB’s flow.

Comparing this performance with another recent victory over UNC Wilmington on December 6 where NEB dominated with a staggering 108 points shows consistency in their high-scoring games. That night, they shot an even more remarkable 58 percent from the field and were relentless on defense with eight blocks and twelve steals.

However, it would be remiss not to acknowledge SOU’s potential threat. The Jaguars come into this game as underdogs but carry with them the unpredictability that can turn any game on its head. They will need to leverage every opportunity if they hope to upset the home team.

NEB fans should feel confident yet cautious; while their team has been performing well above expectations offensively and defensively, complacency is often the downfall of giants. It is essential for NEB to maintain focus and apply pressure throughout all four quarters if they wish to continue their winning streak.

The scheduled date for this highly anticipated matchup is December 17 at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Nebraska. Tip-off is set for 1:00 PM local time (CT). Fans unable or preferring not to attend can follow along through various broadcast networks or live updates online – ensuring no one misses out on what promises to be a thrilling encounter between these two teams.
