nebrasketball10 Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 Worse than the loss with 0.7 seconds left to Iowa State?? What was his name... I'm going to kick myself when someone says it. And worse than when a freshman Keith Langford hit his first three of the season (or maybe it was conference season) from well beyond NBA range to beat us? What was that ISU forward's name... he slipped the pick and Kimani Ffriend bit hook, line and sinker. Quote
cipsucks Posted January 19, 2017 Author Report Posted January 19, 2017 This was the worst because we absolutely collapsed defensively at the end of the game. We gave them the frickin win. It wasn't stolen from us. We handed it to them. Quote

But, we generated zero turnovers in the second half and topped it off with just one assist on the offensive end. That's really bad basketball. Quote

brfrad Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 It wouldn't be a Nebrasketball season without one heartbreak. We need to return the favor in Columbus. Hopefully, Ed is back, and we can steal one there. Quote

tcp Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) the A&M loss had consequences. We were on the bubble going into that game, and a win puts us in good position for an at large that year. Had Doc made the tourney that year, so much would've been different (not good or bad, just different). this is just being a Husker fan. We have a long history of perking everyone up for a week or two and then proceeding to lay gigantic eggs. It's almost become a feature of the program at this point. "Nebrasketball: Sure, We'll Disappoint You, But At Least You Won't Owe Us Alimony When It's Over!" I will say that this is one of the more squandered opportunities we've had in awhile. You couldn't have asked for a better start, nor a worse reaction to that start. Kids need to not worry about the postseason and start focusing on becoming better basketball players.

Yeah, that was the one for me too. That game meant something. tcp 1 Quote
HuskerActuary Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 I've only been following closely since 2007 or so but the A&M loss is easily the worst during the past ten years for me, much worse than last night. Quote
jimmykc Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 Don't know if it was the most disappointing ever, but it has to rank in the top 5 because of the comfortable lead, the complete collapse, the surprising comeback and then allowing an unguarded layup after two time outs to set up a defense. I just hope these young players don't let this demoralize them enough to give Rutgers its first league win. They are certainly good enough to trounce us at home if we don't have maximum effort. Quote

NU was 13-8, had just beaten Texas Tech and essentially had their tourney hopes on the line. NU had everything to play for and it came out flat and lifeless. The crowd was worse, they were quiet the whole time, it felt like a Sunday game over the holiday break. No energy and Mizzou took advantage. NU did manage to get it to overtime, but Mizzou pretty much dominated the extra period. It was the closest NU had been to the dance between 1999 and 2014 and they played like the game didn't matter. NU went on a little bit of a run to end the year, but it was too little too late. That was the year the hosted an NIT game then went to Ole Miss and lost. I watched that one with @nuled2dance . See if he has any memories of that game. I was so frustrated. Edited January 19, 2017 by uneblinstu Quote
bigFRED Posted January 19, 2017 Report Posted January 19, 2017 Make a free throw and we win the game. One team has to win the game and we for some reason didn't want to win it. Quote
