WATCH: Highlights from MSU basketball’s comeback victory over Nebraska

Check out some of the highlights from the Spartans’ comeback victory over Nebraska on Tuesday

Michigan State erased as 12-point halftime deficit to knock off Nebraska, 80-67, on Tuesday night in Lincoln, Neb. It was a tale of two halves for the Spartans, who couldn’t hit any of their open looks in the opening frame but then couldn’t miss in the second half.

The Spartans were led offensively by Joey Hauser (20 points), Tyson Walker (19 points) and Jaden Akins (17 points). A.J. Hoggard was equally impressive after a terrible first half, finishing with 10 points and 14 assists.

Matchup analysis, game prediction for MSU-Nebraska from LSJ’s Graham Couch

See how LSJ’s Graham Couch envisions Michigan State’s game against Nebraska playing out on Tuesday

Nebraska, on the other hand, has been extremely hot as of late with wins in their last four games. The Cornhuskers have notable wins over Penn State, Maryland, Wisconsin and Rutgers in the past few weeks, and now are 15-14 overall and 8-10 in Big Ten play.
