Any info yet on how the NU vs ISU game went today? 

[hskr4life]

Yeah, it seems to be pretty quiet.  I'm hoping that that is just because info hasn't been "leaked" yet.

92-84. That’s high scoring

Hmmm.  I like this trend. 

[MidwestDrummer]

Rothstein appears to be impressed with James Palmer.

 

 

[Huskerpapa]

James must have taken 8 or 9 shots rather than 6

 

[Bugeaters1]

How did Copeland do this time out?

I think he left off part of his thought - "The power of a RS year ... at Nebraska, where transfers become double-figure scorers."

Not so great...remember this is an Iowa State team picked to finish next to last in the Big 12.

[WestOHusker]

We have a box score!

I read that Nebraska played 12 players while ISU played 8. Probably made a difference. 

[throwback]

• Not much scoring from the big guys, but 8 reb combined
• Palmer knows how to get to the FT line
• Typical Glynn game
• Taylor had the most minutes & 6 assists
• Another good stat filler game from Roby
• Jack McTrey had a big game! 17 pts in 16 min - perfect from 3
• Good to see Allen get more minutes & make them productive today.

 

Quick box score summary:

 

• Palmer------23 pts, 4 reb, 25 min (10/11 FT)
• Watson------19 pts, 2 reb, 28 min (3 A) (5 PF) (3-5 3-PT)
• McVeigh-----17 pts, 3 reb, 16 min (4-4 3-PT)
• Allen------- 7 pts, 0 reb, 16 min (2 A) (0-0 3 PT)
• Copeland---- 7 pts, 4 reb, 24 min
• Taylor------ 6 pts, 3 reb, 29 min (6 A)
• Roby-------- 6 pts, 3 reb, 20 min (2 STL)
• Gill-------- 5 pts, 0 reb, 14 min
• Tshimanga--- 2 pts, 2 reb, 14 min (4 PF)
• Borchardt--- 0 pts, 2 reb, 7 min
• Okeke------- 0 pts, 4 reb, 7 min (1 PF)
• Thor-------- 0+ min

 

Other stats 

• NU won rebounding 30-23
• NU 13 turnovers, ISU 15
• NU 10-19 from 3 pt, ISU 8-15
• NU 51.8% FG, ISU 58.8%
• NU 24-29 FT, ISU 16-22
• NU 14 Assists on 29 FG
• ISU had only 3 offensive rebounds
• NU had 13 second chance pts to 2 for ISU
• Looks like game was played with 6 PF before DQ - or we just let ISU players have 6 PF since they only used 8 players

Looks like we jumped out quick again today.  Nicely done.

 

Yeah, this Iowa State team wasn't "projected" to be much... but we were not either.

 

For a team picked to finish last or second to last in the Big 10, we are 2-0 in Power 5 exhibitions.  Scoring 70+ in each.

Looks like their grad transfer guard Zoran Talley didn't play either based on the box score. He's good. Wonder if he's hurt or something.

[Chuck Taylor]

I don't know how you can't be enthused by these two games. With all the new parts we're putting together, you've expected more of a struggle in both of these games.

[nuhusker7]

-James Palmer scored 23 points and only one made 3 pointer. If he can keep scoring without having to rely on a 3 pointer that will be huge. Everyone has games where they don't shoot well.

 

-Jordy with 14 min, Duby and tanner with 7 each. This means we played 12 minutes without a true 5 on the court.

 

-IIRC Iowa State is like #34 preseason KenPom; they probably will be a decent team this year, despite any preseason rankings.

 

-Thor played before Nana, not sure if it was at the end of the game or not. Also I believe playing in an exhibition does not rule out a player from Redshirting. But I'm not saying he will.

 

-It looks like we have 2 guys who can consistently score this year, with a number of other guys who have an opportunity to step in and produce in games every once in awhile, today that was Jack. This looks like a team that should be able to find enough guys to put the ball in the hoop.

 

-Overall I'm happy with another win, the regular season can't come soon enough

Yes you can play in the exhibition and still redshirt

[Huskerpapa]

Thank you for the stats Throwback.  Good stuff.  Yes, I am impressed by what we see to date.  Good stuff indeed.

Interesting Tanner is getting as much time as Duby. I'm sure there minutes will change once they give Jordy a total green light, but good for Tanner, it's nice to see his handwork paying off.

Another guy Iowa St. didn't use today was grad transfer Hans Brase. Brase visited Nebraska the same week as Duby and he's coming off a couple injury riddled seasons. I'm wondering if they aren't willing to risk it this early.

 

Still Iowa St. is no scrub. I think we're all ready for this season to get here. Stay tuned!!!

[khoock]

Saying Iowa State is a bad team bc they are picked next to last in their conference ignores the fact that the Big 12 is suppose to be extremely good and deep this year.

[Cazzie22]

Looks as if Jack was very efficient today, not missing a shot!

Hans Brase also didn't play. 

Iowa St only played 2 guys over 6'6" so that probably explains why we only saw 28 combined minutes from our centers in this game.
