Mississippi State seemed to take control with a
59-48 lead on a dunk by D.J. Jeffries with 4:28 remaining, but
the Bulldogs didn't score again, missing their last six shots
while the Jaguars (2-6) made four of their last five.
Davis' layup gave the Jaguars a one-point lead with 23 seconds
remaining. The Bulldogs (6-2) missed a shot but got an offensive
rebound and called timeout with nine seconds left. Joseph then
blocked Josh Hubbard's field-goal attempt.
Hubbard scored 14 points and Cameron Matthews added 12 for the
Bulldogs, who lost their second straight, the first a 67-59 loss
to Georgia Tech in the ACC/SEC Challenge on Tuesday night in
Atlanta.
No. 15 Creighton 89, Nebraska 60
Baylor Scheierman had 20 of his 24 points in the first half and
the Bluejays handed the host Cornhuskers their first loss of the
season in a nonconference rivalry game in Lincoln, Neb.
Creighton (7-1) hit 14 3-pointers, making 10 in the first half,
with Scheierman making six of those. The fifth-year senior guard
was 8-of-22 from the field and added 10 rebounds. Crieghton
center Ryan Kalkbrenner had 13 points and 12 rebounds, and Trey
Alexander and Steven Ashworth each added 13 points.
Nebraska (7-1) got 20 points from Keisei Tominaga -- 16 in the
first half -- but shot only 33.8 percent, including 2-of-22 from
3 (9.1 percent). The Cornhuskers were off to their best start
since 1992-93 and had won every game by double digits.
No. 22 James Madison 130, Keyston 59
Michael Green III pumped in a season-high 21 points and the host
Dukes had seven scorers reach double figures in a blowout of the
Division III Giants in Harrisonburg, Va.
Terrence Edwards and Jaylen Carey both posted 16 points, Noah
Freidel and T.J. Bickerstaff each supplied 12, Xavier Brown had
11 and Jerrell Roberson added 10 as the Dukes (8-0) improved to
4-0 in home games.
The Dukes reached the 100-point mark on Brown's 3-pointer with
nearly 11 minutes remaining. All 15 James Madison players scored
in the rout. DaShaun Johnson's 12 points led Keystone (1-7),
which was coming off a one-point victory a day earlier at Wilson
College.
