WATCH: Nebraska's best player carted off after over-the-back fall

Nebraska's best player took a scary fall to the court in a blowout win on Saturday and had to be carted off to a nearby hospital.

Shavon Shields' attempt to block Rutgers forward D.J. Foreman's shot in the second half resulted in a pump fake by Foreman and then a heels-over-head flip to the court for Shields. TV broadcasters stated Shields lost consciousness immediately after the fall.
