uneblinstu Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Didn't really get to watch this one as close as usual, but this was a gritty, gutsy win. To be down that big and charge back to win comfortably is really remarkable. Impressive win. Hope they get rested up and go get another one on Tuesday. Big time stuff, I'm so happy right now!

Norm Peterson Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 I thought this game was going to end at the FT line, but I thought it was going to be because we'd fouled everyone out and had to send the walk-ons in to finish the game. Man, I thought the officials were calling a tight game on one end of the floor for awhile. But who in the league has guards who can match ours? I sure hope Palmer comes back next year. Would really love to see what this team could do playing from the front. NUtball, BigTate and Cazzie22 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskerCager Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) The only other time in program history we have had 17 regular season wins in January is 1991. And this is the best start in-conference after 12 games since 1999 (we were 9-3).

Cazzie22 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 I did not believe we could come back and win. Great determination and grit led to the win. Rest up and let’s go beat Goldy Gopher in Minneapolis. Husker4theSpurs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huskerpapa Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Shock and awe...we woke up the last ten minutes, and absolutely wrecked the Badgers. Anton and Isaiah don't score and we win Our bigs in huge foul trouble and we win. Glynn came up big James came up big Isaac came up big. Jordy played well. Evan played well. We fouled too much, or so sayeth the refs. Just a big, big road win. Man, this feels good.

FredsSlacks Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 my biggest worry is that these 8 days off will throw us out of rhythm. hopefully not. Silverbacked1, HolyBobpilgrimage and HuskerActuary 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HB Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 This team can really scuffle out there. I mean play some bad basketball. But they never quit. Very resilient bunch. Lots of examples but this game and PSU are a couple of illustrations. Lots of games where we have some really bad minutes or go scoreless, yet they don't get rattled and storm back.

HuskerPower #nato73 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Jordy's defense on Happ when he had 4 fouls was key. He had a block and a couple of good defensive plays and rebounds and played a while before he fouled out. I thought that was key. northwillriseagain, Silverbacked1, tcp and 3 others 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuhusker7 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Grittiest win I have ever seen. We came through so much adversity in that game. I had so much fun watching that game! Section_316 and northwillriseagain 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aphilso1 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 The Badger message boards must be melting down right now. To get all the calls to go your way and yet piss the game away at the free throw line...man, that's got to be a terrible feeling. Ha!

Would really love to see what this team could do playing from the front. They called every body foul on Nebraska and none on Wisconsin. If they looked at Happ a little crosseyed, the whistle blew. So frustrating. However, it was nice that they called Davison (sp?) for some of the BS charges he tries to draw, so that was welcome.

Nebrasketball1979 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 We are not only kicking some serious ass on the court right now but we are crushing Vegas with another line they missed by 15 points. I believe 17-6 ATS, which is crazy good. Hopefully there is a degenerate gambler on the selection committee and can argue this point on our behalf!

Man, he's been so much more confident with his bench role. It's been a welcome sight to see Jordy aggressive on D with the way those refs were calling any & all ticky-tack crap on NU, a.k.a. if anyone breathed on Happ. Edited January 30, 2018 by AuroranHusker NUtball, BigTate and Bugeaters1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
