Nebraska took a beat to control the game. The Huskers shot 58.8% in the opening period but tallied four turnovers, helping the Braves keep the game in single digits.
In the second quarter, the Big Red broke the game wide open. An 11-0 run pushed the difference to 17 points. NU would push the difference to 20 points by halftime, 30 points in the third quarter, and finish just shy of 40 points by the end of the game.
Nebraska coach Amy Williams was proud of the assists-to-made baskets and rebounding margin in the game. The Huskers made 37 shots on 26 assists and outrebounded the Braves 48-25.
“Thrilled we were able to take care of those two things and come out with a good win,” Williams said after the game.
Bradley was without starter Claire McDougall for most of the game. Averaging 10.1 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, McDougall chased a ball out of bounds and collided with a photographer. She would leave the game with a leg injury and not return.
The Braves also briefly had another starter out of the game. Ellie McDermid rolled her ankle midway through the first quarter. She would also go to the locker room but returned a couple of minutes later, eventually playing 24 minutes.
There weren’t any new injuries for Nebraska, who is still waiting on the return of Natalie Potts.
Logan Nissley is still working her way back from missing time earlier in the season, but she put up 10 points in 17 minutes off the bench. She also had seven assists, five rebounds, and two steals.
“I thought Logan’s stat line was amazing,” Williams said. “She’s still working into everything. But for her to come out there and to have a—10 points, seven assists, no turnovers, and five rebounds. Just all areas that you can kind of impact the game.”
Britt Prince led all scorers with 17 points. The sophomore added five assists and four rebounds. Jessica Petrie had a double-double of 15 points and 10 rebounds. Callin Hake pitched in a well-rounded seven points, seven rebounds, and six assists.
Nebraska shot 56.1% for the game, making just 6-of-21 three pointers. Bradley made 32.8% of their shots, including 7-of-31 from deep.
This is just the second time in program history that Nebraska has scored at least 80 in eight straight games. The 987-88 Big Eight Champion Huskers had a similar stretch, going 7-1. This year’s group is 8-0.
This is the first time ever that both Nebraska men’s and women’s basketball teams have started the same season 8-0. The last time both teams began the same season 7-0 was in 1992-93.
The Husker women will look to stay unblemished with a Big Ten Conference opponent this weekend. The league opener is at Penn State on Saturday. Tip from State College is slated for noon CST. The game will be streamed on B1G+.

Data centers take center stage at North Omaha townhall
The future of data centers in Nebraska took center stage at a North Omaha town hall Thursday evening.
The event was hosted by State Sens. Terrell McKinney and Ashlei Spivey, who alongside Sen. Machaela Cavanaugh sponsored a bill in the Nebraska Legislature that looked to help regulate data centers.
Parts of their bill were adopted and passed in LB1010, which requires reports on annual power usage, water usage and ownership.
“Having this passed in a package showed a lot of bipartisan work,” Spivey told a crowd of attendees at Nelson Mandela Elementary School.
The proposed regulations were shaped in part by Bold Nebraska, an advocacy group focused on eminent domain and clean energy. Jane Kleeb, chair of the Nebraska Democratic Party and founder of Bold Nebraska, said before the bill passed there were “zero laws on the books” to address a boom in data centers.
“If one is coming into the community, we wanted to make sure that there were some basic transparency things in place,” Kleeb said.
Political discussions around data centers heated up in recent months following reporting by the Flatwater Free Press that showed Google is considering a data center in Nebraska that could require more than three times the amount of power the entire city of Lincoln uses at peak demand in the summer.
The Nebraska Legislature recently passed another bill, LB1261, that allows private developers to build and own power plants to serve a large industrial customer, including data centers. That bill was proposed by the governor’s office and celebrated by Gov. Jim Pillen.
“Our state is once again taking a bold and strategic step – one that will create an environment that attracts business and multibillion dollar investment, while legally preserving Nebraska’s unique and consumer-friendly public power model,” Pillen said at the time.
At Thursday’s town hall, McKinney called LB1261 “the bogeyman bill.”
“It’s a bill that the governor pushed through the legislature to allow for data centers to create their own power,” McKinney said. “It’s a bill that I stood on the floor and said this is going to harm our communities.”
