Expand the lead by a few before half. It'd feel better that way. 

[atskooc]

Hell, just keep the lead...

Do the announcers this weekend seem really well prepared to talk about NU's opponents?

 Nope.  I guess I need to update my cable game.  Thanks for the help

 

You might try this for the 2nd half  (I was looking to see if I could get some live game stats up (apparently there are no live stats) & found this.

Scroll down to the Nebraska Game (all Div I games) and there is a box 'WatchESPN (but I think you still need a cable provider to log in)

Well that was a poorly played first half.  Yet we head to the half up by three. 

[atskooc]

Well, better than losing at half. 

[HuskerBB]

Ugly first half - but good to have a lead at least.

well, get out with a lead, so that's good. hopefully timmeh has a nice light up speech for the half. these guys need to understand how big this game is for them.

[atskooc]

I wouldn't mind if coaches wore team jackets like that more often.

Don't know - listening to Kent on HSN - streaming

And his passing.

Ed's passing out of the post could use some help

Out-rebounding VT 20-14 and have forced 10 turnovers.

 

Eight turnovers by NU, though.

 

Neither team shooting well, and VT 3-8 from the line. That helps.

As others have said, this was an ugly first half.  The announcers keep praising both teams' defense.  Not sure I agree.  There were a lot of wide open shots missed by both teams.

I'll take an ugly win any day over a loss
If they can continue to hold teams way below their avg stats I like our chances to win those ugly games
They won't keep missing all those easy in front of the rim shots much longer

I credit our Defense in Holding VA Tech to 23. Hope they keep it up in the 2nd half.

Not a good start to the second half.  I repeat...we HAVE TO hit wide open shots.

[MichHusker]

Coming out flat

[Huskerpapa]

Good lord.

LeDay just taking this game over. It needed to be one of ours.

[Huskerpapa]

Well somebody please wake up the Husker team. 

[TheKamdyMan]

They will expose Morrow if they continue to bring him away from the basket with no help defense.

Very disappointing start. I thought the sloppiness would improve.
