Nebraska defeated No. 11 Texas A&M thanks to a standout defensive performance in the second half on Saturday afternoon.

The Aggies made just two field goals over the final 10 minutes of the game and shot 24% overall over the final 20 minutes.

The Cornhuskers used a 10-1 spurt to turn a 42-39 deficit into a 49-43 lead in the match-up of the league's top two defensive teams.

Nebraska won by a final score of 57-48 at the Bob Devaney Sports Center in Lincoln.

Former Nebraska player Christian Standhardinger has been ticketed for public indecency and won't be allowed to transfer to La Salle.

An officer found Standhardinger, 21, and a 19-year-old woman engaged in a sex act a few hours before dawn Sunday in a Lincoln, Nebraska.

La Salle coach John Giannini announced Standhardinger's transfer Tuesday but later said it would be "in the best interest of all parties that Christian Standhardinger does not attend La Salle University."

No. 3 Kansas escaped Nebraska with a 63-60 victory on Saturday.

The third-ranked Jayhawks ran their school-record home court winning streak to 69 games in a row and made coach Bill Self 124-6 on his friendly home court.

"I don't know what it is," said senior guard Tyrel Reed. "I guess you could call it magic. The aura of Allen Fieldhouse. Throughout my years I've seen some runs and some plays that you don't see in any other arena."

Marcus Morris made two foul shots to give the Jayhawks a 62-58 lead.

After Lance Jeter drove in for a layup, Reed was quickly fouled and made one of two.

Nebraska coach Doc Sadler says reserve guard Kamyron Brown has been dismissed from the team.

Sadler gave no explanation for his decision Friday. Sadler had suspended Brown for 10 games in November and December for an unspecified reason.

Former Nebraska forward Christian Standhardinger is transferring to La Salle.

Standhardinger, who announced Dec. 17 he was leaving the Huskers, told the Journal Star he'll begin classes at La Salle on Jan. 18.

A true sophomore, he will sit out this semester and the fall semester before he's eligible to play.

Iowa State coach Fred Hoiberg will return home when his team plays at Nebraska on Saturday.

Hoiberg will be coaching his first Big 12 game.

He was born in Lincoln, his parents attended Nebraska and his grandfather, Jerry Bush, is a Nebraska basketball Hall of Famer.

“To say it’s going to be an emotional game for me is an understatement,” said Hoiberg. “To coach against the same team my grandfather coached — it’s going to be a special moment.”
