strong finish over the next
month.”
Sophomore outside hitter
Laura Pilakowski said she was
just excited to play a home
match.
The last time NU played in
the Coliseum was Oct. 28.
"We knew if we beat Texas
A&M we would be able to share
the title,” Pilakowski said. “We
haven't played in the Coliseum
for a while, so its important we
go out strong for our seniors.”
Despite ISU's record, Cook
wants his team to go into
tonight’s match trying to get
some things done.
Matches like this are good
for improving the aspects of the
game that need fine tuning, he
said.
“They're all business right
now,” Cook said. “They know
they’ve had three days off and
now its time to go.”

Besides Belcher, senior forward
Steffon Bradford notched 19
points. Senior guards Cary
Cochran and Craig Wortmann
each popped in 15.
WDrtmann will likely be a key
figure for Collier on Saturday as
senior center Kimani Ffriend and
senior guard Rodney Fields serve
the last game of a three-game sus
pension.
“Wortmann did a nice job off
the bench and he will probably
have to play the utility position for
us," Collier said. “He’s playing
everything from the big guys to
smaller guys."
Belcher said Wortmann’s play
could be a major help Saturday
and acknowledged how impor
tant it was for this Husker team to
start the season off right against
ORU.
“We haven’t won a road game
in a long time," Belcher said. “It
would be a big step for us if we can
go in and win that first game.”
NU aims to finish
season on high note
SEASON from pagelO
tion has been Nebraska can end
up in the Cotton Bowl or
Holiday Bowl. The Huskers also
have a slim chance at a BCS
berth, but only if Kansas State
loses to Missouri on Saturday.
K-State is a 22-point favorite
over the Tigers.
The last time NU played in
the Cotton Bowl was 1980 when
they lost to Houston, 17-14.
Nebraska went to the Holiday
Bowl in 1998 and lost to Arizona,
23-20.
Nebraska wants to end this
season better than that.
"Nobody wants to end
things on a bad note,” tight end
Tracey Wistrom said.
Wistrom said NU could take
one of two approaches to the
rest of the year. It can go
through the motions or it can
pick itself off the floor and plan
on dominating what’s left of the
schedule.
Polk made it clear which of
the two NU will be taking.
“Even though we’re not
going to the title game,” he said,
“we’re going to be practicing like
we are.”
