Nebraska has had 5 conference road games this year (Iowa, Wisky, Michigan, Minny, PSU). In those games, they've averaged:
49 Points per game
37% shooting from the field
19% shooting from the 3 point line
67% free throw shooting on 14 attempts
Obviously, they just don't seem to shoot well outside of their home arena. Purdue needs to continue to put up good defense and can't afford to lose at home, especially to Nebraska.
BTW, Nebraska's "road" isn't very easy from here on out. Four of their final six games will be on the road as they face Purdue, Maryland, OSU and Illinois. Their home games will be against Iowa and Maryland. It's very possible for them to "lose out" and be one of the last four seeds for the B10 tournament.
