Purdue Game Thread: As Sure As Dogs Can Fly

[cipsucks]

We just set the Nebraska record for fewest turnovers in a game at two. 

 

At least we got that going for us......

[49r]

...having said all that, I am REALLY optimistic about our future based on the influx of talent we will have, plus Shavon Shields leaving me no doubt that he intends on being THE MAN on this team going forward...

The bubble may have burst tonight.  This is a game we should have won, Purdue is not good and we made them look good.

And the wisy game.

People said the same thing after the Wisconsin game.....

[colhusker]

I still think the future is very bright, but tonight was a huge disappointment.

I think DJ Byrd is the guy in the 5 hour energy commercial.

All it takes is a 4 game win streak in March, right cip?

Did "wisy" lose last night?

[brfrad]

You can't count on a freshmen and a walk-on player to lead the team.  Tonight Talley and Gallegos need to be called out.  It worked for Andre.  He looked much more involved.

Yeah, I really hope Tally pulls out of his funk, and soon.  He could really make a difference on this team.

From the greatest movie of all time

so should we not play any games until the B1G tourney? Or should we battle it out to get that 11 seed instead of 12?

you can always count on the stocky white guy to torch NU.

Maybe we should recruit one of these!

[bobcat402]

why cant we get guys like hammond, i feel like in the last decade the only big we've ever really struck gold with was Maric, where are they and why does nu fail to ever grab them? we need a guy like hammond

We have one. Peltz, but he doesn't shoot...

No, we have to play every game and try to get every win we can.  And we will get those wins.  We can still get as high as 9 or maybe even 8.  It's just that Purdue was a game we needed to get there.  Now we just need an upset at home (like Michigan State or OSU).  It'll happen, I'm pretty sure we won't be 12 or even 11.

he's not white but javon felix from texas would be nice

[Silverbacked1]

Some positives from tonight.

 

1) Shavon Shield's willingness to take the team on his back.

2) David Rivers guarding of their 7 footer and his all out hustle.

3) Glimpes of what the Huskers will play like when Miles has his players and a year or two in the system.

4) Shavon Shields play.

5) The red shirts being into the game, being good teammates.

6) Seeing what GATA can get us if we played it for a whole game or half.

7) Shavon Shields play.

8) JT may be giving us another option this season and next.

9) Didn't quit and make this a 40 point loss.

 

We lost and it really stinks, BUT there were some hope for the future that shined though.

 

Now where did that pitcher of kool ade go.

Hard to shoot when you're out for the year with a knee injury.

[brfrad]

So, Kent calls out Rivers and Andre as not being the guys to help Shields and Jordan.  Kent, Ray and Talley couldn't hit the water if they fell out of a boat.  They were the guys that should have been called out.  They have to shoot BETTER if NU wants to win in the Big 10.  It's that simple.
