LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) -Aleks Maric had 17 points, 16 rebounds and six assists to pace Nebraska toward a 22-point halftime lead and 68-49 win over Colorado on Sunday.
Nebraska (18-11, 7-9 Big 12) built the big halftime lead by forcing 12 turnovers and holding the Buffaloes to five field goals.
Nebraska opened a 15-2 lead on Maric's free throw with 11 minutes remaining in the first half. Colorado (11-19, 3-12) cut the lead to nine twice, but the Huskers closed the half with a 16-3 run. Nebraska went up by 20 on Sek Henry's steal, layup and free throw with just under three minutes left and ended the half with a 3-pointer from Paul Velander that made the score 36-14.
