Valparaiso Game Thread: What the winner don't know......

[doc1394]

Is this where Nebraska runs "milk" like Tim Miles said after the Southern game?

[HuskerFever]

I really want to check out our shooting stats these past two games and compare them to the Doc era. The percentages might be better under Doc, but I really think we're getting more looks and makes under Miles so far.

[Noah121]

Brandon nails a baseline jumper.. 48-37! Talley takes it away on the other end, and then... Ubel is fouled, for a LEFT! RIGHT! LEFT! RIGHT! (etc.)

[Noah121]

Roof! Roof! Roof! (Valpo shot blocked.) Then Andre commits his fourth foul, but Valpo misses one that rolls off the rim.

Scrum on the other side... and Huskers keep it! That dive looked like what Doc had emphasized at his very first open practice.

Missed Husker jumper. And then Coleman (VU) slams one down. 48-39 and the Huskers call timeout. 4:53 left.

[Noah121]

Ray fouls with 15 seconds on the shot clock and 3:59 on the game clock. Ergo, **HONK!!**

[tcp]

howdy all. heh heh. just got in, and whaddya know. we're princeton!

[cipsucks]

3:59 to go. Huskers up 9. Let's see if they can hold on. It will be a good indication on what they'll do down the road.

I don't think I've seen Vucetic play tonight, and he only recorded 1 minute of playing time in the Southern game. Is he hurt, in the doghouse, or just not very good? Unless he's injured, I don't see how he can be kept off the court with our bigs in foul trouble

[cipsucks]

howdy all. heh heh. just got in, and whaddya know. we're princeton!

hey, tcp. Let's bring home a Husker victory.

[Noah121]

Valpo hits the tough shot while guarded. 48-41. 3:30 left.

Rushed shot from long range barely hit iron on the Husker end.

Rivers commits his fourth foul and Valpo is at the stripe. Missed the first... and swooshed the second. 48-42, 2:54 left.

[Noah121]

Whew... a point-blank Valpo shot misses after a Husker turnover.

Make the clock moo! Milk it, Huskers! Indeed, they do that, but miss the shot. 1:57 left, 48-42.

[tcp]

this is trippy. it's like he's out-Doc'ing Doc.

[Noah121]

ROOF! ROOF! RIVERS! Valpo calls its fourth timeout with 100 seconds left in the game and 19 to shoot.

[Noah121]

Placeholder to ensure that I get the 64th post. (Kept there for posterity.)

Ubel commits his fourth foul on a shot, and #55 knocks down the first shot, and banks in the second. 48-44.

Huskers miss, but a TEAM offensive rebound! 1:03 left.

[tcp]

phew! wow. this is pretty crazy. let's go big red!

[HuskerFever]

No matter if we win or not, TERRIBLE finish.

[Noah121]

Singing "Sweet Georgia Brown" as the clock dwindles to 38, 37, 36, 35, and the shot misses.

Foul against Brokaw and 17.9 seconds left. Shooting two: hits the first, and nails the second. 48-46. They're going to play the foul game.

[Noah121]

With 14.3 seconds left, Ubel shooting 1...

And the bonus. Timeout Valpo to try and ice Brandon. 49-46.

[HuskerFever]

First points since the 7:21 mark for Nebraska. Scoring droughts? That sounds familiar....

[cipsucks]

Way to go Ubel!

[tcp]

wtg brandon!

[Noah121]

Huge free throw made! Two-possession lead for the Huskers! Timeout Nebraska.

[tcp]

dang. dumb foul. almost there guys.

[tcp]

not pretty, but a nice win ! miles' first upset. and it was an upset. yay!

[Noah121]

Talley commits a dangerous foul with 3.3 seconds left. Valpo shooting one...

And the bonus. Made it. 50-48.

Almeida was fouled... and there's 1.7 seconds left. YAY--I have a chance to get -25 on HHCC!

First shot misses... and the desperation shot misses. 50-48 is your final, and I get an excellent HHCC score!
