Nebraska (3-1) vs Central Florida (3-0) Game Thread

[royalfan]

30-12

[colhusker]

Boy I was wrong about surprising people.  Ugh

[royalfan]

no ryhme or reason to any subsitution patterns

[dustystehl]

UCF has turned us into a jump-shooting team early. Bad sign for a Husker team that doesn't shoot well...

[hal9000]

We're building a brick house.  Unless we can shoot them out of their zone, this sucker's over.  

[Fullbacksympathy]

Their 7'6" center goes out for the half and we sub in Tanner... mindblowing.  

 

Watson

Allen 

Palmer

Roby

Copeland

 

Win.

[hhcdave]

As long as we have a revolving door of transfers who only stay 1-2 years, and a continuous pattern of key/best players leaving early, we will go nowhere. It's sad, too, because we had a HUGE opportunity with new practice facility and arena. I fear unless the next guy gets it right, we'll have the door slammed on the facility opportunity as its only a matter of another decade before we become average again. 

[HuskerFever]

Marist is starting to look like a good matchup at this point.

Hate to say it, not sure Miles understands you HAVE to have a jump shooter or two that play meaningful minutes.

I see your point, but it's those same 1-2 year/leave early transfers that can provide a spark to any program as well. It's just the nature of today's college hoops, but we need to maximize the results while they're here, otherwise we can't build on top of anything.

[hhcdave]

Might be harsh but nothing unfair or untrue about what I said.

[FredsSlacks]

all our centers are awful right now. just don't play a center

[HuskerFever]

I think the crowd noise is getting to our team. 

[HuskerFever]

18-35 UCF 1:02 1st

[Handy Johnson]

I can't SEE or HEAR the game right now, maybe not a bad thing...

You and me both. 

[FredsSlacks]

borchardt has played in the 1st half of every game so far. that doesn't seem necessary.

Yeah but he's "One of Us"

[Dead Dog Alley]

So UCF was too big for us to match up with and SJU was too small for us to match up with.

[dustystehl]

Pretty pathetic first half.

[HuskerFever]

20-36 UCF. Halftime. Let's not do that again.

[Fullbacksympathy]

That's a half worthy of the hot seat.  

[huskerbaseball13]

Nothing says Miles ball like shooting 25% from the field in the first half.  Hopefully we can cut it to 10 by the 15 minute mark. 

[brfrad]

We can't shoot much worse, and play worse defense than that.  I got to watch the last 4 minutes of the half, but we have not looked very good.  We have to run.  That is the only way we have a chance to win, or hope somebody is on.  Right now, nobody is on.
