Nebraska and Texas Tech are headed for an old-school Big 12 showdown in the Hall of Fame Classic in Kansas City.

The Huskers rolled to an 85-62 win over Missouri State in the first semifinal Monday night, and the Red Raiders roared back from a big hole for a 78-63 win over Southern California in the second, setting up the first meeting between the schools since they were in the same league.

The Huskers (4-0) were led by Isaac Copeland Jr. with 23 points, but the senior forward had a lot of help.

Glynn Watson Jr. added 16 points, Isaiah Roby had 13 and Nana Akenten finished with 11 as Nebraska dominated the second half, turning a 40-35 lead with 17 minutes left into a blowout.
