The Huskers showed life in the third set, thanks to a strong showing from Harper Murray. Nebraska stayed alive with a 25-20 set win.
Murray and the Huskers then willed their way in the fourth set, overcoming a six-point deficit and winning 37-35.
But in the fifth set, Texas A&M took the lead and didn’t let go. The Aggies won the set 15-13, handing Nebraska its one and only loss of the season.
