8-0 · 7TH IN BIG TEN
Next Game vs Creighton · Sun 10:00PM
Ugnius Jaruševicius - Out again Friday Jarusevicius (back) is out for Friday's game against Kansas State, Robin Washut of On3.com reports.
Connor Essegian - Seven points in win Essegian amassed seven points (2-7 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and three assists across 15 minutes during Thursday's 84-72 victory over New Mexico.
Impact Essegian has been rather quiet ever since scoring double figures in each of Nebraskas first two games. The guard averages 15.6 minutes per game as a bench piece for the Huskers, but he'll need to improve upon his 29.2 percent clip from downtown considering he's a sharpshooter style of player and doesn't offer much in the way of defense.
NOVEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE
Rienk Mast - Drops 17 as Huskers top Lobos Mast ended with 17 points (6-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Thursday's 84-72 victory over New Mexico.
Impact Mast was cold from downtown, but that was about the only blemish on his stat line as Nebraska picked up its fifth win of the season by toppling New Mexico. The forward hasn't been all that assertive as a rebounder since collecting a double-double in each of his first two games, as he has just 12 over his last three. However, the Huskers keep winning and Mast is on track for a career-best season.
NOVEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE
Jamarques Lawrence - Drops 21 vs. Lobos Lawrence closed with 21 points (6-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-7 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Thursday's 84-72 win over New Mexico.
Impact Lawrence's 21 points were a season-high for the senior and led all Cornhuskers as Nebraska picked up a fifth straight win to open the season. Lawerence was hot from distance and he's shooting a scorching 52.2 percent from three-point range this season. The point guard also has eight assists over his last two games as he also continues to help set the table for Nebraska.

Braden Frager - Sees eight minutes against OU Frager (undisclosed) closed with one rebound over eight minutes during Saturday's 105-99 win over Oklahoma.
Impact Frager was listed as questionable on Nebraska's initial injury report, and the forward wound up playing. The freshman saw between 18 and 22 minutes in each of the Cornhuskers' first three games -- all blowouts -- but received merely eight minutes in Saturday's narrow victory.

NOVEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Leo Curtis - Questionable to play Saturday Curtis (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game against Oklahoma.

Berke Büyüktuncel - Struggles from floor in win Buyuktuncel ended Tuesday's 69-50 win over Maryland Eastern Shore with eight points (2-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 24 minutes.
Impact Buyuktuncel needed eight shots to score eight points, but the forward was active elsewhere on the court for the Cornhuskers. He's currently averaging 5.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game, but he does need to step up his efficiency. After he shot 40 percent from the field last season in Lincoln, it's been more of the same this year through three games.
NOVEMBER 12 • ROTOWIRE
Sam Hoiberg - Big outing in win Hoiberg provided 18 points (7-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and four steals over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 69-50 victory over Maryland Eastern Shore.
Impact Hoiberg wasn't all that active in Nebraska's first two games, but he changed that in a Tuesday night win over Maryland Eastern Shore. The guard shot a blistering 70 percent from the field and was active everywhere else with seven boards, four steals and four dimes. Hoiberg has been active as a facilitator and on defense so far this season, but these are the kinds of nights he's going to need to have should Nebraska exceed expectations.
