Basketball ***Live Game Thread: Iowa 97, Nebraska 87 Final in OT

NU opens the second half on a 13-5 run and leads Iowa 47-36 with 15:55 left.

Gary's defense is turning into offense as he's gotten to the free-throw line three times and converted each one. A Williams assist leads to a Meah dunk to give the Huskers a 9-point edge.
 
A Sam Hoiberg 3, then a steal and break-away dunk from Williams gives NU a 52-37 lead with 14:53 left.

Williams up to 14 points. Largest lead of the game for the Huskers.
 
Pavelka and Muhlheisen seem to be liking the 2nd half...overall.

Gotta weather this mini storm by Iowa. 😎

NU leads Iowa 54-44 with 12:05 left.

Hawkeyes have some energy — they're on a 7-2 run — and have cut into their once-15-point deficit. Timeout from Fred.
 
That's Essegian's second 3 of the night. Good to see considering his 0-of-6 outing from deep against UCLA.
 
4 point game. There is a woman screaming right by the TV mic that I want to someone to put some duct tape over her mouth
 
Welp, Iowa got hot from deep.

Nebraska's once-15-point lead has been slashed to 62-61 with 6:49 left.

The Hawkeyes' last five makes have all been 3s. They're 14-of-31 from 3 on the night.
 
Payton Sandfort kicks his leg out on a 3 and draws the foul. He makes all of his free throws and Iowa ties it up at 64 with 4:58 left.
 
If there is one player I would have tried like hell to keep down in the 2H, it's Peyton Sandfort. He can heat up fast. He has 20+ in the 2H.
