TT -n-n inlM n By Jim Ballard and Chuck Green Senior Reporters For the first eight minutes of Nebraska's basketball game against Oregon last night, the snow-filled streets of Lincoln weren't the only sloppy things in town. Unlike the streets of Lincoln, though, t he Cornhuskers improved as the night wore on, shooting down the Ducks TO GO in front of 8,63!) in the Bob Devaney Sports Center. Nebraska connected on only three of their first nine shots to start the game, while falling behind the Ducks 8-6. Nebraska coach Danny Nee said that both teams were "tight" at the begin ning of the game. "I don't know if it was nerves, tightness or just sloppy play," Nee said. "The first few minutes were very boring." Nebraska tied the game at 12-12 with 1 1:49 remaining in the first half on a three-point juniper by guard Joel Sealer, then took the lead 1 12 minutes later when forward Anthony Bailous hit a 17-foot jumper to make the score 16 14. Nebraska never lost , their lead again. Bailous, who scored 1 4 points on the night and pulled down six rebounds, said Nebraska needed some time to get their offense going. "We were just feeling each other out at the beginning," Bailous said, "but once we settled down, we got our offense and fast break going." Nebraska maintained their lead by as much as seven points throughout most of the first half. Oregon cut the Huskers' lead to two, 30-28, with 3:35 left in the first half on a three-point play by guard David Girley. The Huskers answered with a basket by forward Bernard Day, and the game remained a two-point contest until Husker forward Bill Jackman connected on a three point jumper with 2:07 left before halftime, giving Nebraska a 37-32 lead. Nebraska scored with 1:03 left on a three-point jumper by guard Brian Carr 100 Cash to Win Wet "T" Shirt Contest Every Tuesday NO COVER Drink Specials 7-10 50 Draws & 75 Drink and again when Day was fouled while driving to the hoop. The basket and ensuing free throw were good, giving the Huskers a 43-34 lead at halftime. Nebraska shot 57 percent from the field during the first half and pulled down 12 rebounds, compared to Ore gon's 16. The Ducks shot 50 percent from the field in the first period. Fifty-three seconds into the second half, Carr lost his balance when he was fouled during a layup and hit his forehead on the playing surface. Nee said Carr's injury wasn't a concussion, but the impact caused a mi gran e head ache and temporary loss of vision. Oregon cut Nebraska's lead to one, 50-49, with 12:38 left, but the Huskers answered with a Derrick Vick basket with 12:15 left in the game. That was as close as Oregon would come for the rest of the cont est, as Nebraska coasted to the final 18-point win margin. "We got about what we deserved," Oregon coach Don Monson said. "We were about a half a count slow on getting the ball where it needed to be gotten." Nebraska, 2-1 on the season, fact's Creighton in Omaha Saturday night while Oregon, 1-2, faces Idaho State Wednesday night in Eugene, Ore. - - " -- -- - - - .- - We Rock Lincoln!
