Just now, Ron Mexico said:

Roby extended his arm which is why he got the foul call.

He did, but the Terp was riding him from half court. If 47 feet of contact isn't a foul but one arm extension is...

[Bugeaters1]

We won three of the four segments, now just WIN.

I'll take it and another half just like it.

[Silverbacked1]

Well it is a game being called by TV Teddy so you never know what is going to be called when.

Solid half.  Need to hit the boards better.  If we take away their 2nd chances and keep up the shooting we got this...

[Bugeaters1]

80% from down town in the first half. and 85% from the line.

[hhcscott]

Jeriah Horne has impressed me as much with the rebounds as the shooting recently.

His game all around is getting stronger

Have a feeling that Jack will be needed in 2nd half. Roby with 3 fouls and Jordy and Jake with 2. Need the Aussie to get bossy.

He is flashing some draymond green/kris Jenkins(Villanova forward) I'm digging the versatility he brings, if he can develop a low post game watch out

Up by 4 at halftime on the road at Maryland.  Looking pretty solid.

 

I do struggle to see what McVeigh does that Roby and/or Horne can't do better. To me, McVeigh looks like just as much of a liability on defense as Roby and/or Horne. The difference is that Roby/Horne actually bring something on the offensive side.

 

I really think Horne should get all of McVeigh's minutes in the second half. He cought fire vs Indiana and he looks like he could step into the role of consistent 3pt shooter, which is something that Nebraska has desperately needed for awhile now. It would be nice to see him knock a few more 3s down in the second half, so he is riding high on confidence heading into the rest of the Big Ten schedule.

 

This is a HUGE half. Starting the Big Ten schedule out 2-0 with wins on the road at Indiana and at Maryland could seriously be enough to change the trajectory of this team for the rest of the season. It would have an enormous impact on their confidence.

We won that segment, three to go.

[Silverbacked1]

As I ask for the IU game can we stop bagging on player during games, please?

 

We have all week to talk about that, besides about the time some gets called out they do something amazing to win and then we feel stupid for saying something bad. I know it has happen to me before.

 

Just enjoy the process that is the game right now Baller, it is more fun that way

Gawd I hate Ted Valentine!! Glynn gets rode/shoved/pushed out. May have to watch Redzone.

[Ron Mexico]

Playing on the road against 2 of the better teams in the BIG during Christmas break is a good thing.

[Silverbacked1]

Horne Holy BAD WORD!

Someone guard #4

[HuskerBB]

Great move by Jeriah -  but then gets lost on the other end.

 

[HuskerBB]

Jacobson really doing a job on the glass today.

 

[Ron Mexico]

MJ is coming up huge today.

[Silverbacked1]

Let's not let the unathletic thin pimpled faced white kid beat us please.

[Ron Mexico]

Need to get Tai back into the game now.

Ed must learn that sometimes he just needs to give it up.
