We will not be the only team frustrated this year when they play MSU.  I mean their only loss is to Duke and they have wins over ND and UNC for a reason.  It isn't because they are bad.

 

True enough. I did not expect a win, but I did expect it to be worth watching in the 2nd half.

I guess I didn't knnow it's illegal to trap someone. 

Yeah, WTH was that crap?

[extremehoops]

When a Coach cant put in plays to help the team succeed on offense.   We look the same disorganized offensive team as every year with Miles.  I hope AD Bill doesn't feel he has to wait to keep cleaning house

If Roby stayed vertical he was fine, he brought his hands down, which led to the foul.

Given that Notre Dame and North Carolina suffered the same fate, it looks like some good teams will be looking with us.

Did he make contact, or doesn't it matter?  Seems like it should.

[Huskerpapa]

We have it to 13.  Sort of surprising with how we are shooting.  We are getting the shots by the way, we are just unable to make them

I thought he did, when I saw the replay.  Watching it from floor level, it looked like he hit him with his hands.

[NUtball]

Duby with hammer.  Surprised they didn't look at that as flagrant.

OK

[Huskerpapa]

Hey, Hey...we have it down to a dozen

[NUtball]

As bad as they played, can't believe they're only down 12.

 

Shoot at even a mediocre level, they may be able to hang in there.

Best offensive possession of the game.

[Bugeaters1]

Well cut the lead to 12 and still playing like dog shit.

[nuhusker7]

All in all, 12 points is not bad considering how we looked. If we can get hot in the second half we could make this a game. 

[MichHusker]

Down 12 although it feels like double that. We are a small run to start the 2nd half away from being right back into this. Just need to R.E.B.O.U.N.D

A Roy Williams led North Carolina team scored 45 points, and the announcer said a all time school worst 24.6% from the floor.   I hope Moos isn't basing his decision only on these next 4 games.  Miles is in big trouble, if that is the case.

I shouldn't say floor level as I'm watching it on TV, but they had the under basket camera making it look like a foul.

Yeah, I just glanced up from typing and it looked they had formed a great trap, and thought the whistle was awful quick.  I didn't really clearly see what happened.

Meanwhile, NW playing even with Purdue in W. Lafeyette with 5 minutes left.  NW is really Jekyll & Hyde this year.

Looking at how the game has gone, I really don't see how we were able to cut the lead to 12 at the half (but we'll take it keep it up! ).

 

(Lulling them to sleep. Now we got 'em where we want 'em? )

We're only down 12 and we are still pissed.  I like it.  We should expect to be even.  We played like dog poo compared to how we could play.  Just shows that we can hang... even if we play terrible... with the best.

 

Guys people are talking national championship for MSU.  Let's see how the second half plays out yes... but let's also see how the next month 1/2 are going too.  If Moos didn't have a decision on MR until Minnesota, then he sure as hell isn't going to have a Miles decision after playing the basketball equivalent of OSU, Clemson, Alabama.

And of course, after we open at MSU and vs. Minnesota, our next two conference games are at Northwestern and at Purdue.

Really, I do not think much will separate 2 from 10 this year.  However, I think the clear cut #1 is playing right now.  (I also don't think that team is wearing red)
