Can I take my score prediction back?

[Lifetimesker]

We look completely taken out of our game  right now. Missing a lot of bunnies inside!

Good thing is Rutgers isn't much better.

[Huskerone]

missed last 14 shots, are you kidding me?!  My goodness.

Initial Thoughts

 

1.  We found someone who has as much trouble scoring sometimes as we do.

2.  We found someone who has as much trouble shooting free throws sometimes as we do.

 

Guys this game is very winnable if we start hitting some shots.  Every single person is cold.  Horne makes his first two buckets and then proceeds to take three forced shots.  Guys are not confident at all right now.

Have to start creating some break opportunities.  Half court offense is bad.

I'm not sure we can score in transition.  We have missed every possible shot today.  We have missed about 10 bunnies.  We have missed wide open looks.  We have missed contested looks.

[Huskerone]

I bet you try 14 half court shots you make at least 2 or 3.  Geesh.

[Cazzie22]

First to 50 wins?

[HuskerFever]

This is pathetic. Rutgers guys, Rutgers.

[nustudent]

We're a bad team again

[cozrulz]

Trying to make stupid passes on offense.

[hskr4life]

Nice thing is we always have one bad half and one good half.  If we are down less than 10 with this being our bad half... we got it in the bag

I'm at a loss of words. I know we miss Morrow, but you should not have this bad of a showing against RUTGERS.

[Cazzie22]

Watson out with 3 fouls.

[HuskerFever]

0-15 in our last 15 shots? Of course we're not going to beat anyone with that stat.

[jayschool]

So instead of missing shots, let's eliminate the middleman and start turning it over. Oy.

19-29 Rutgers 1:30 1st

Who is this team?

[MichHusker]

Worst half of basketball I've ever seen 

[huskerbaseball13]

Halfs like that are not good for job security. That was about as bad of a half as I've seen from any team this year. Luckily we are playing Rutgers and they are fully capable of sucking in the second half. 

[Cazzie22]

No one wants to be the man on offense.

[hal9000]

What a steaming pile that was.

[jayschool]

Bad news: we opened the game 8 of 19 from the field.

Worse news: we finished 0 of 17.

[cozrulz]

Think we need to try clearing the lane and let Tai do his thing in the 2nd half.

Hope you are right.
