NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/02/2010 - Lincoln, NE (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The 10th-ranked Kansas State Wildcats head out to the road for two straight games, starting tonight in Lincoln, when they take on the Nebraska Cornhuskers in Big 12 action at the Devaney Center.

The Wildcats are coming off a near miss of another major victory on Saturday, falling 81-79 in overtime to now top-ranked Kansas. KSU had been a perfect 4-0 versus Top 25 teams, including an upset of No.1 Texas, prior to suffering its second loss in three games on Saturday. The Wildcats are still a healthy 17-4 overall, as they now begin a six-game stretch against teams located in the bottom half of the Big 12.

Speaking of the cellar, that is exactly where the Huskers reside with a 1-5 record in Big 12 action. Nebraska however, is coming off its first Big 12 win, a 63-46 thumping of Oklahoma on Saturday. The triumph ended a five-game slide and improved the Huskers to 13-8 overall and 11-2 at home.

As for the all-time series, KSU leads Nebraska 123-93 after the teams split a pair of meetings a season ago.

In a game that featured 20 lead changes and 14 ties, it was KSU that fell short against Kansas, 81-79, on Saturday. Jacob Pullen paced the Wildcats in defeat with 22 points and five assists, while Denis Clemente had 13 points. For the season, Pullen tops the roster in scoring at 19.3 ppg and he also dishes out 3.5 apg and shoots 41.8 percent from beyond the arc. Clemente has provided a nice complement to Pullen and he checks in with 14.6 ppg and a team-best 4.0 apg. Jamar Samuels adds 11.1 ppg and 4.9 rpg off the bench, and Curtis Kelly tacks on 11.1 ppg and a team-high 6.3 rpg for the Wildcats.

The Huskers notched their first Big 12 win behind stingy defense, as they forced 15 turnovers and held Oklahoma to a lackluster 34.9 percent shooting effort from the floor in a 63-46 decision on Saturday. Offensively, Brandon Richardson led the way with 16 points, while Ryan Anderson had 11. Anderson, the team's leading rebounder (5.0 rpg), is the lone player on the roster currently averaging in double figures, with 10.7 ppg. Richardson chips in with 8.9 ppg for the Huskers, who are limiting foes to 60.2 ppg for the season.
