LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Dylan Talley’s tie-breaking, shot clock-beating 3-pointer with 9.2 seconds left sent Nebraska to a 64-60 victory over Iowa Saturday and put a dent in the Hawkeyes’ NCAA tournament hopes. The Cornhuskers (13-14, 4-10 Big Ten) used a couple of big runs in the second half to come back from a 16-point halftime deficit and end the Hawkeyes’ three-game win streak. Talley scored 18 points and Shavon Shields added 17 for Nebraska, which shot 62.5 percent the second half and outscored Iowa 19-7 over the last 9:42. Iowa shot 28 percent the last 20 minutes.
Brandon Ubel added 12 points and Ray Gallegos 11 for the Huskers. Roy Devyn Marble had 18 points, Aaron White 15 and Eric May 10 for the Hawkeyes (17-10, 6-8). After Talley’s 3-pointer from behind the top of the key, Iowa’s Mike Gesell missed a 3 with 2.9 seconds left.
Jim Field and Chris Parks have the call of the game played at Glenwood High School.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Senior Iowa fullback Brad Rogers’ career with the Hawkeyes is over. Coach Kirk Ferentz said Friday that Rogers and sophomore linebacker Jim Poggi will end their football careers because of “persistent injury issues.” Rogers, of Toledo, Ohio, played in 27 games over the past three seasons with Iowa. He had one more year of eligibility.
Poggi, a linebacker from Towson, Md., did not play the past two seasons because of injuries. He was one of 13 Iowa players who ended up hospitalized with rhabdomyolysis, a rare muscle disorder that can cause kidney damage, two years ago after offseason workouts.
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa has hired Minnesota Vikings assistant Chris White to coach running backs and coordinate special teams. Coach Kirk Ferentz announced Friday that White would replace Lester Erb, who left after 13 seasons at Iowa. White had been with the Vikings for four seasons after a long career at Syracuse. White’s hiring comes as Ferentz completes the second shake up on his staff in as many years.
Iowa’s 4-8 record last year, including a six-game losing streak to end the season, was its worst since 2000. Ferentz’s program has struggled since its victory in the 2010 Orange Bowl. Ferentz recently announced former Colorado assistant Bobby Kennedy would coach the wide receivers, and former Virginia assistant Jim Reid would help with defense. Ferentz hired new offensive and defensive coordinators last year.
Audubon’s Dona Fenske, Jessica Nikkel of Lynnville-Sully and Kelsey Bolte of Battle Creek-Ida Grove will be inducted into the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union’s Basketball Hall of Fame at the Iowa Girls State Basketball Tournament next week. The awards ceremony will take place Friday, March 1 at halftime of the Class 2A State Championship game.
