Northwood VS. Nebraska (Exhibition) Game Thread

Northwood is better than no wood at all.

Almost time to chop wood.

 

[hskr4life]

Keep us posted of the score if you are there.

[hskr4life]

Why is Watson out and please tell me it is not serious.

[dskurz]

Any periscope links? 

[49r]

Getting off to an okay start it sounds like.

(Hyperventilating) Watson? (Hyperventilating)

 

BTN Plus student broadcasters haven't mentioned it.

Per Kent, banged his knee in practice. He could play in an emergency.

I'm going out on a limb, here.  I am going to say playing Northwood in an exhibition game would not constitute any emergency.

Northwood shooting well or are we not defending well?

[brfrad]

Not a good start.  Struggling on defense and on the glass.

We've looked bad. They're shooting well but we've been super sloppy. 

[hskr4life]

Man... All I see in stats is O REB for them!

[49r]

Northwood's stat line at the 10 minute mark of the first half:

 

STAT	TOTAL
Score 22 Field Goals 47.1%(8-17) 3-Point FGs 66.7%(4-6) Free Throws 100%(2-2) Rebounds 9(5-4) Steals 1 Blocks 0 Assists 3 Turnovers 5

Copeland doesn't look like a 5 star going against a D2 school. 

[jayschool]

Lots of strange lineups early. Thor, Borchardt, Nana, McVeigh and Copeland at one point.

 

No chance to get a feel for the game, and we've had a true point guard out there for about six minutes total.

 

Now they look like they just don't care.

 

Plus, this is one of those games where Jordy looks as if he's never played basketball before.

No Watson.

No Gill.

No Roby.

No Trueblood.

[49r]

...so when, officially, can we start getting excited about James Palmer?

[hskr4life]

Kansas losing to Fort Hayes State at the under 4.  We are not the only sluggish ones.

Not too worried about this game, but Copeland has somewhat been on the milk carton for 2.5 exhibition games now. Gonna need him to be as advertised to be a bubble team. 

[BugeaterZ]

Three banked 3s and almost a fourth and we aren't finishing. I expect neither of those trends will continue in the 2nd half

[Swan88]

Norwood has banked in two threes.  Scheesh.  And we are having trouble with layups.  Disappointing so far.

It looks every bit as bad as it sounds.

[BugeaterZ]

Looks like Palmer will score more, but Taylor was our best player in the first half IMHO.

 

Of course Watson isn't playing
