Nebraska Cornhuskers 73
Minnesota Gophers 110
The Minnesota Gopher women's basketball team won their third straight game as they whipped Nebraska 110-73 at Williams Arena Thursday night.
1. Red hot Gophers
The Gophers were red hot Thursday night, shooting 55 percent from the floor. They were also knocking down threes. Minnesota finished 10-of-25 from behind the arc.
Five Gophers finished the night in double figures.
2. Encore for Banham
Fresh off her NCAA record-tying 60 point performance Sunday night, the big question was what would Rachel Banham do for an encore.
She had a big answer, finishing with 32 points while connecting on 12-of-20 from the floor. Then what happens when you draw the defense's attention?

3. Counting in threes
Whether it's Banham, Carlie Wagner, Mikayla Bailey or another Gopher, Minnesota has made a habit of beating teams with the three-pointer.
In fact, the Gophers have broken a single-season school record for three-point field goals.
