I came back just to bitch about that soft ass tech.

Dont feel like that at all. Of course it wouldve been nice to win, but we fought hard on the road against a good team.

#VegasDoesntKnow #BetTheSkers Refs screwed us... Copeland and Glynn and Gill struggled. Only lost by 12. We can win every single game from here on out. This was 1 game. Let’s get it done against Wisco.

with a different crew to work the game though.

Name of the bald ref? haas clapped in his face afterwards...technical?

I'm on the Haarms hate train.

Man, this feels like a missed opportunity... There must have been more to the story on Cope's T. Not sure if something had been brewing, but it was a weak call. NU have every chance to be in this game. Every time they had a chance to get back in the game and really make things interesting, they literally gave it away. Glynn seemed to struggle today. Frankly, most of the back court did, at least offensively. Roby did some nice things, I thought it was one of his better games, actually. Purdue was allowed to be really physical in the perimeter today, especially early. Really harassed NU into a bunch of turnovers, which may have been the difference in the game. That Haarms kid is skyrocketing up my most annoying player leader board. I'd really like to see NU mix in the press more in the middle of games, not just when they're trying to make a miracle comeback. I'd like to see them ambush teams with it. It seems to produce results just about every time they use it. They don't need to do it a lot, just occasionally. For a team with a dominant front court, NU sure dunked a lot. Jordy didn't play in the 2nd half. He hasn't played much in a bunch of 2nd halves. Why is he still starting? Tanner is solid, but he's got some nuances he's still figuring out. Had a couple chances to pickup some offensive fouls but didn't. I think he'll learn how to pick those up. Thomas Allen going through a few of those Freshman blues? For the second game in a row, the rebounding improved quite a bit after halftime. Let's see if we can get that figured out before the break next time. NU shouldn't fear Purdue if they face them again. Hopefully they get another shot at them in New York. Alright, that's enough for now. Here's to getting back on track on Tuesday vs. Wisconsin.

That's so close. I wish my initial prediction of an NU win had occurred, however.

So isn't that a tech on Haarms?

Good thing Roby didn’t look at any Purdue players after that dunk.

Coming out of relative lurkerdom to note that I didn't think many people could match the jackwagon-ness of DJ Byrd from a few years back, but lo and behold, there in another Purdue uniform, there he is... Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

H-A-A-R-M-S. Double A's for a double dose of douchery.

At one point the announcer who isn't Kugler complimented Purdue for elbowing our guy in the head.

How can you bobble the ball, let it hit the floor, regather it, and dribble again? Isn't that double dribble?

Start Borchardt on Haas. 16 minute mark....get the best 5 out there together again

6-2 advantage in the 3 minutes since we put our best team on the floor, with several very good missed opportunities

Hopefully it's not down to $$$ because then we lose

Things are moving quickly in KenPom land now: Projected record: 18-13 9-9

Enjoy today's video.

Dimes bringing Facts into the conversation again!

I am optimistic as well.

Apparently so! The refs were bad in an equal opportunity kind of way today. Very inconsistent from one end to the other. That bald-headed dork must be named Eades. He always sucks as bad as the other 'Eades' brothers. T call on Copeland was BS - much worse happens all the time and no call is made.

I only recall the one late in the game. My main point is that Nebraska is very athletic.

LOTS of mismatches, not enough stops & not enough easy buckets. I didn't think we played that poorly, but beating a team as good as Purdue on the road is a tall order (pun intended).

I did and I kind of chuckled. Not professional at all, but funny.

Actually, it might. When they play with effort, and I think they have vs. every conference opponent, they're gonna be very hard to beat for the rest of the teams on the schedule.

They had multiple opportunities to get that lead down under 9 and would have a bad possession, or turn it right back over something like that. I'm not saying NU should have won, but I think they had chances to take it down to the wire.

V V V Vagner!!!!

Yeah, we didn't come close to even tying this one up, but I'm proud about this team. We lose this one by 30 points on some of our other squads.

Effort was there. Defense was there. Certain players played well, others did not. Offense struggled, at least in part due to their defense, in part because we missed some bunnies and open looks. But we need to take that intensity (with better offensive execution) into each remaining game.

Flailing and yelling by Haarms, where's the T?

Think maybe someone needs to hit Matt Haarms somewhere other than in the balls.

We had so many damn opportunities where it even seemed like Purdue was handing a chance to get back into this thing, and we couldn’t convert a single time. Yes, the officiating is atrocious too, but it all comes down to execution Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe it's a make-up for not calling the testicle fouls earlier.

That was a complete horsecrap call.

HOW IS THAT TECHNICAL!!!

Seems like we always have a ref that fucks the Huskers.

You should have prioritized this over asking for Jordy not to play...which he hasn't this half

That's not a university approved chant, sorry.

How come we scored with about 50 seconds left, and Purdue was allowed to in bounds the ball about 10 seconds later, with less than 40 seconds remaining? That was kind of crap

I’d feign a strike to Harms midsection every now and then just for giggles...

No Haarms, no foul.

Dont understand our apprehension to put our best lineup on the floor

How was that on Tanner???

yep. hes a liability right now.

I hate to say it, because I want him to be good, but Jordy is hurting us if he cant score and can’t rebound and loses his man on defense...Jordy should probably be third string...

Love it. UCF wants to get under the skin of the committee, Georgia and Bama. You don't like it? Play us. The fact of the matter is teams like Bama and Georgia will refuse to play a team like Boise and UCF during the regular season and the playoff committee won't let them play in the post-season. UCF has one option left on the table - run your mouth until one of the big boys on the play ground swings first. Bait one of the big boys into a fight or run your mouth until they do.

Or if we had landed Grant Gibbs as a 9th year grad transfer.
