Cornhuskers Clip Iowa

 IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP)

 Brandon Richardson scored a season-high
25 points and Nebraska rallied to beat Iowa 79-73 Thursday night
for the program's first Big Ten road win.
 Bo Spencer added 16 for the Huskers (11-9, 3-6 Big Ten), who
bounced back from an ugly loss to Ohio State with their third win
in five games.
 Nebraska used a late 14-4 run to take a 70-65 lead with just
under three minutes left. Three-pointers from Matt Gatens and Eric
May brought the Hawkeyes within two, but Toney McCray hit two free
throws with 27 seconds left and Iowa couldn't answer.
 Zach McCabe matched a career high with 20 points for the
Hawkeyes (11-10, 3-5), who led by as much as 11 in the first half.
