Nebraska comes to Austin with an overall record of 9-5 and 0-1 in conference after losing to OU at Lincoln, 77-55. Texas, meanwhile, returns to the friendly confines of the FEC after dropping a 65-62 game in Lubbock to Tech. Texas looks to extend a seven game winning streak at home this season after dropping their last three road games. The Huskers are 2-3 on the road this season.

As with the Tech game, the season stats indicate that Texas should blow out Nebraska. The conference stats indicate a close game. My feeling is that Texas will play closer to their potential and win going away. While both teams are weak offensively in the post, Texas has a much stronger defensive presence with Lindsey and Gayle. Nebraska will need to shut down Brit and Kat both from BTA and when they drive inside. Erika has had good and bad shooting games and is due for a good. That will really open things up inside for both Ashleys. The Horns need to exert dominance on the boards and in forcing TOs.
