Basketball Huskers take down Rutgers, league's top defense with poise, lethal shooting

Rutgers had the country's seventh-best scoring defense and was No. 1 in the Big Ten (59.1 ppg), in addition to having the sixth-best opponent field goal percentage (38.2%) in the nation.

Nebraska tore that defense apart with its second-best shooting (58.2%, including 42.9% from three) and second-best scoring performance of the season en route to an 82-72 upset win over Rutgers on the road on Tuesday night.

Takeaways from the Huskers' pulling off back-to-back wins for the first time since December and how they are getting it all done:

Site Stuff Apologies for the technical issues

As many of you already know, our site and message board were down throughout the afternoon for a few hours. There was an issue on the back end of our site and the most of the Rivals network for the Rivals homepage and most of the team sites. I apologize for the inconvenience. We are back up and running on both the site and board.

A message from Josh Helmholdt, Rivals' Director of Operations:

"Earlier today, one of Rivals' service providers experienced a global outage that caused the site to be inaccessible for several hours. This is a platform outside of our network or our control and many sites were impacted by this outage, not just Rivals. I want to apologize to those of you who were not able to access the site earlier today. All operations are now restored and we will be working with this provider to ensure that the issue that caused today's outage has been fixed and will not reoccur."
