Might have been a "make up" call after the quick whistle on Kissinger.

Stallworth

[whoopdeedoo]

thanks HB. i didn't know she had a previous injury, i guess. she gave huskers a few important minutes.

 

minny up 62-28 on psu not quite halfway through 3rd.

matt just stated "no fast break points"?!? i thought whitish had one to nicea?

[Red Don]

  I think Coach Amy said Bria had a slight mishap during warm-ups and didn't know if she would be available to play.

Our starting guards had a rough time the last couple of games. It seems other teams have seen something on how to slow us down. Put the squash on our guards and it will deal us fits. 

 

Wisc isn't very talented but they use what they have....well.  Foul a lot and constant moving screens all afternoon (especially their forward).....but if it doesn't get called ...keep doing it I guess. They are all about controlling the slow down tempo, and it worked for them most of the game. Then again we didn't seem to be able to set the tone like we do a lot. 

 

It's an ugly win, but...a win.  It counts in the win column, and that's what we need. But we better get on the gas pedal and break out of the slump. Got big games coming up.

 

Due for a wake up call. Maybe this was it. Hope we aren't getting tired and running out of gas. Get that edge back please.

[Red Don]

Maybe it's more rust in the tank because of the week's lay-off rather than running out of gas. (At least I hope so).

[Bugeaters1]

Coach Williams did say they needed to change some things up to get offense going

that's exactly what crossed my mind earlier in the first half--------if things might be catching up to the huskers. especially kissinger and cain. even though kissinger had the injury and was out for a lengthy period, it still is a long season to adjust to. physically and mentally.

[KarlHessEatMy....]

I really liked when Bria and Janay played together... Their defense just gets the other team sped up and it's great to watch.  I know Bria only played a few minutes in the 3rd but without her in those minutes not sure we would of came back

[Merlin]

I think other teams have figured is out on offense. Just need to play hard with confidence. 

Wisky does have 2-3 pretty nice players. 

[12dozen]

The two freshmen, are holding up well.  Cain played like a veteran from day 1.  Kissinger seems more comfortable every game.  Not sure if anyone will need a "second wind".  Staff has done a nice job spreading the minutes.  There is not a kid on the roster, that hasn't stepped up at one time or another.  I hope they are enjoying the season as much as I am.

still---------------a little stunned as i went and looked at the standings. let this soak in for a moment.......tied for second with ohio state at 9-3. think i might have mentioned around mid-season. i was really hoping the huskers could approach .500 for the whole season----MAYBE.

[whoopdeedoo]

btw, anyone catch hooper's halftime interview with matt? when they started talking about the huskers, hoop stated "there's a couple things i would do different". ???

[whoopdeedoo]

looking at the final box score, couple things stuck out: wonder when the last time 2 true freshman lead the scoring in a win? Cain had 14 and Kissinger with 11. Woody only had 1 minute? that is a little surprising. last thing, number of free throws by either team. wiscy 1-3 and 7-9 for huskers.

The warmup shirts that the women wore today, were the same as what the men wore yesterday. They were black with white lettering, saying Hate will Never win.

The fouls should have been worse, but the refs let em play today.
