Michigan (16-4) vs. Nebraska (13-7) Game Thread

[Nebrasketball1979]

I love that we are playing a little nasty and with an edge.  They are playing like they believe they are better than Michigan.  A refreshing change.

Copeland got pushed into him.  Dumb call.

What I don't understand is how that is a foul, and Wagner does the EXACT SAME THING on the other end, but our guy doesn't act like he got sniped, so no call?

Some of the Michigan players are wearing shorty shorts and it is uncomfortable.

Right?  And this from the school of The Fab Five.

If Roby didn’t have a turnover tendency, and could stay aggressive on offense, He’d be a lottery pick this year. 

Hope we can keep him a couple of years.

How I'm feeling after that first half.

 

Go for it! Go for it!

Refs have been decent tonight, so far.  That's just one of my pet peeves.  The other one was Wagner going in the lane with 11:35 to go, and he doesn't leave the lane, or catch the ball, and finally gets the ball in the lane with 11:29 left.  That seems longer than 3 seconds you're allowed in the lane.

Regression to the mean would suggest that Michigan doesn't turn the ball over as much and starts shooting the ball through the net more this second half. We're going to have to lock down the 2nd half to walk out of this one with a 'W'.

I actually think Glenn played ok in the first.  He didn't score a lot but he kept the offense flowing with good pace.  We need him to take care of the ball, be efficient, and pick his spots.  A few steals and layups would help as well!

Actually 1st half Glynn will do just fine.  As long as we get 1st half Roby, 1st half Copeland, and 1st half defense.

Glynn played real well.

I haven't been this stoked going into a second half since Blowjays. Hopefully a different outcome this time. 

 

[HuskerFever]

I bet Michigan fans are blaming their scoring drought on the short shorts.

You know I used to get really nervous and even too upset at times, but man, as a whole Nebrasketball only has things to gain so I've been trying to just be positive.  Right now we have nothing to lose so no reason to be nervous.

big bucket for gill. we cannot let them run early here. they get that 2d half mojo, then this could be very bad. But Roby arrives! 

[nustudent]

Roby is terrific

[tcp]

hoops gods are smiling. back to a dozen. weathered that first punch. 

[HuskerFever]

I'll take the foul! Probably should've been a shot clock violation.
