LINCOLN, Neb. Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Ireland . -- Tyrell Nelson knew what Sundays 70-62 win over Nebraska means for Gardner-Webb.This is huge, this one is huge, Nelson said. We somewhat struggled in the beginning (of the season) but this win is very big for us, going into the Christmas break and going into conference. Its very, very big for us.Nelson scored 15 of his 24 points in the second half to help Gardner-Webb beat Nebraska 70-62 on Sunday.Nebraska cut it to 62-60 on Tai Websters free throws with 2:21 left. But Gardner-Webb hit 3 of 4 free-throw attempts down the stretch and David Efianayi hit a game-clinching layup with 29 seconds left.Efianayi had 11 points for Gardner-Webb (7-5).

Nebraska hit just 40 percent of its shots for the game, made 15 of 26 free throws and committed 20 turnovers.The Bulldogs opened up a four-point lead early in the second half, but a 5-0 spurt by Nebraska put the Huskers up 36-35. Gardner-Webb took the lead for good on Nelsons 3-pointer to make it 45-43 with 12:57 left and opened the advantage to seven on Efianayis free throws five minutes later.Beating a Big Ten team on the road was critical for Gardner-Webb going forward, said coach Tim Craft.I think what it does for our players is it validates some of the things that weve been talking to them as a coa
