Palmer is a TO machine and not good at the FT line.

Come on men, finish!

[Fullbacksympathy]

Come on James... make a damned free throw.  

[Huskerpapa]

Again...come on James!

[jayschool]

Get a stop, and then give it up. Damn.

[Cazzie22]

Roby would be useful.

[tcp]

well, sad they let it get this close, but at least they're holding off well, and that's always good experience. 

[Silverbacked1]

Evan with a big play.

[Huskerpapa]

Can't put Duby in the game because of his free throw deficiencies.

[Silverbacked1]

Glynn with the 2 free throws

[Huskerpapa]

Make our free throws, and put this away.

[Huskerpapa]

Of course it was a flippin foul...Sheesh

[Cazzie22]

Much to work on.

[Red Don]

Whew,  Pulled out the Win!

Frick. Not what we needed at all.  Roby was getting ready to step into the starting lineup or, at worst, continue as our 6th man.  We can ill afford to lose him until January.  Jack and Jordy are going to have to step up bigly until Isaiah returns.

Glad we got the "W", but it's apparent moving forward that Duby and Jordy will be our achilles heel. If they aren't going to score they at LEAST need to rebound and stay on the floor.

[Silverbacked1]

Yeah we won

 

[jayschool]

Anton Gill = Player. Finally.

[Bugeaters1]

that was closer that it need to be.

Bad combination of an injury and foul trouble left us with no idea how to defend the paint in both halves. Need to figure that out, especially if Roby is out for longer than a couple of weeks.

I've been really impressed with this kid. Not sure why he didn't get more time early, i guess he had to be eased into it. 

[Huskerpapa]

Not having Isaiah, Jordy and Duby on the floor really hurt our defense and rebounding.  We got tooled on the boards, and we gave up way to many easy interior shots.  That said, we are having players step up and that is something that has been missing in the past.

[Red Don]

Officials did their best to keep Long Beach State in this!

[hal9000]

Reminded me of the Mississippi State game a bit.
