Giving up wide open looks from three all night...imagine that. 

[HuskerFever]

Three point defense be like:

No one can consistently knock down open outside shots.  

AND we can't seem to understand that we need to defend the outside shot.

 

We probably don't defend it because we never see guys make them in practice.

Another wide open look given and another made 3.  Tell me what MO brings to the table as a coach

[Bugeaters1]

Well our one game win streak was fun while it lasted.

They feature him in twitter videos a lot.

Sparty has only hit 11 threes.

 

It feels like 24.

[colhusker]

We've missed AT least that many badly.

[HuskerFever]

THEY MISSED A THREE!!!

[Bugeaters1]

Did it look like the Huskers were running in mud?

But I don't think that they have made but one free throw and one weird tip in so that is why.. I think.

They are far more athletic if that is what you're asking.

[HuskerFever]

Well at least there's this:

Watson tossed it to the wrong guy there.  McVeigh and Webster as a 3 pt shot option, Webster should not be the choice.

[Silverbacked1]

Okay here is that part about refing I hate.

 

Izzo just says too the ref "that was fucking, bullshit, and you know it". on the tie up at center court when Jordy goes diving in to the mix.

 

Same ref calls McVeigh for a push off on a drive.

 

Now is it right?. Don't know but that always looks bad.

Did Miles give up?  We have let them dribble off about a minute the last two trips without fouling.

Michigan State shot only SIX free throws! Open shot after open shot.

[colhusker]

Ugly loss.

 

Watching the defense, MO needs to be told kick it in or goes back to Western Illinois.

[brfrad]

This game is pretty easy to summarize.  One team went 11-17 from 3.  The other team went 4-16 from 3.  Everywhere else, we did enough to win.  We had 16 offensive rebounds.  MSU had 6.  We went 17-22 from the line.  MSU went 3-6 from the line. 

[Huskerone]

Maybe it was Michigan State keeping us at an arm's length all night, but it seemed like a very uninspired effort.  3 point D, horrible, again.  We must be a step slow, cheat in not to get beat, bang open 3, not sure how else to explain.

• Tai tries too hard sometimes, but when no one else is doing anything I guess I don't blame him.
• Jacobsen, man those mid range shots looked...bad.
• Taylor, McVeigh, Roby, Horne, Jacobsen a combined 4 for 21.  Ugh.
• Jordy the bright spot, good for him.

Moving on, brighter days a head.
