The women's basketball team takes on #3 Maryland tonight. The young Huskers have had a decidedly rough start to the season but, like the men, are beginning to find their stride in conference play. They have played their first two opponents very well, although ultimately falling in both games by small margins. Tonight will be a big test and a big measuring stick for the women. I don't expect a win, but let's see if they can keep this margin inside of 25 points.
