    Final Stats (PDF) Photo Gallery Nebraska Quotes Oregon State Quotes Corvallis, Ore. - Jaz Shelley finished with 10 points, six rebounds and seven assists in her final game as a Husker, but No. 6 seed Nebraska dropped a 61-51 defensive struggle to No. 3 seed Oregon State in the second round of the the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament at Gill Coliseum Sunday. 
    Nebraska finished its season with a 23-12 overall record that included an 11-7 Big Ten mark and a runner-up finish at the 2024 TIAA Big Ten Tournament. AP No. 12 Oregon State improved to 26-7 overall and advanced to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen next week in Albany, N.Y. Oregon State's defense held Nebraska to just 31.3 percent (21-67) shooting, including just 4-of-20 threes. At one point, the Huskers were 1-for-15 from long range. NU matched the Beavers on the boards at 36 and won the turnover battle, 15-10. OSU managed to hit 40.7 percent (22-54) from the field, including 10-of-33 threes (.303), while going 7-for-10 at the free throw line. Nebraska expects to return full-time starters Markowski and Potts along with part-time starters Kendall Moriarty, Nissley and Hake next season.  Kendall Coley and Jessica Petrie are also expected to return along with redshirt junior Allison Weidner, who was a starter for the Huskers in 2021-22 and 2022-23 before suffering a pair of knee injuries. Nebraska will also welcome two-time Nebraska High School Player of the Year Britt Prince and Illinois high school star Amiah Hargrove.

    Not sure where this goes, but...
     
    Agree with most of the points made here. Good stuff.
     
    The tournament play was way more physical, and to some extent quicker, than we faced all year. We, at this point aren't ready for it. Maybe that's the lesson learned this year.  In some ways that's a good thing.... learned the hard way. But we got that chance to see what's really like playing in the "big time"...just getting there. 
    All the B1G teams has the same issues. Week in and week out, we don't see physically  "tough" teams. 
     
    The teams coming in to the B1G, in the next couple of years may have their way with the rest of the B1G ...at first.  The B1G may have to adapt to them...not the other way around. 
     
    A lot more thug stuff in a lot of games I watched, not just our games. Near fights in many games. Trash talking, knocking people down (we did receive some of that)  Pott's got pushed around and had her own little protest late in the game. 
     
    If that's the way it's going to be in national tourneys, then we have get much tougher....or not.  
     
    Another issue is getting shots off when under "stress". Much tougher to do in the NCAA's. The B1G is much less defensive minded. Easier to get set and shoot.  
     
    And...lastly, opposing coaches had prepared defenses to neutralize our scorers, and executed their defense in a workman like manner. Good coaching, with a team that could adapt overnight.
     
    This was a great experience for out team. I expect they have grown up to the realities of high level play...and maybe us to a lesser extent.

    OSU had at least 10 blocks. Pretty much a huge part of why we were not scoring,
     
    But yes, a great season. Next year will be more of the same, but better....lots of wins. Lots of fun. 
     
    This one stings but considering everything...the team did great. Proud of them, and to be a HUSKER !

    All in all a doggone good season.  We did make strides, but of course good teams do during the season.  I would hope the coaching staff will think about this game as they recruit moving forward.  Recruiting seems to be on a bit of an uptick for the 2024-25 season so far, but let's try to get another really good player or two out of the portal and really augment this team!  GBR always and forever!!  🌽🏀❤️

    Was thinking the same thing at the half time. All these competitive teams have two or three athletic players at 6-3, 6-4 or more in some cases. 
    It's already started, and It's just the way women's basketball is going to be in the future...bigger ...and bigger...and bigger.

    Holding Oregon St to 28 in a half is no easy feat. Actually have done well in that regard. Just somehow, pick up the offense and we have a good chance.
     
    On the other hand Oregon St's coach is no rookie. Expect them to counter with more offensive schemes in the 2nd half.

    Haven't ben able to post, but did watch the game.  
     
    A&M's speed on defense was hard to over come. They were set up to neutralize Jazz and it worked for them. Fortunately their offense was erratic and not efficient. Then one player almost won it by herself in the second half. 
    We got a 17 point lead then the musical chairs started. So much for the lead in the second half.  We got handled in the 4th.
     
    The storage stats....
    Both of the high scorers for us,  Markowski and Nissley only played a little over half the game. Would think you would want to utilize them more. Markowski ended up with 3 fouls. 
    Also I thought Moriarty played well in the first part of the game...then she just disappeared. Hit a 3 then gone to the splinters of the bench.
    Could have used her quickness both on the offense and defense more.
     
    A&M looked like the Rutgers of the past, but bigger. And if possible, fouled more.
     
    Oregon is a much different type of team. Hopefully we match up better....and our offense is more effective.  And....after the lay off, is much more into the flow.... and when they're so dangerously good

    Cheap shots by both teams in that game.  Officials need to get that under control so someone doesn’t get hurt.  Officials have enabled her complaining by not nipping it in the bud.

    This contract $$  puts her up the in the higher tier of the B!G, and into the top 25 nationally.   
     
    Mulkey (LSU) is highest at about 3.2 mil/year  ! Just above Geno and Staley at about 3 million/yr.
