[Huskerpapa]

Oh Isaiah, that would have been huge.

[colhusker]

17th offensive rebound for them

[Huskerpapa]

You have to clear the lane...and we are settling for threes.

[The Polish Rifle]

Let’s keep shooting 3s

[Red Don]

If we could only shoot!

Regardless of the situation, you compete. 

Seriously we don't need any additional excuses other than being Nebrasketball

[HuskerFever]

I feel like I'm watching this game in slow motion. Kind of like the Titanic treading water.

[Huskerpapa]

Hey Huskers...it is time.  Score EVERY possession and defend like there is no tomorrow, cause there is not if we lose.

[Huskerpapa]

Two more missed bunnies.

$^&#^% man, this is a nightmare.

Nice move by the BIG to have this layoff for all of it's teams.

Penn State won

They were the home team which so far are 12-0...so there's that.

[colhusker]

How many times are we going to get knocked down with no whistle?

[jayschool]

Just to be crystal clear:

1. If we win, this is an important measure of how far the Nebraska program has come, how important this tournament is, and an indication of just how awesome next year is going to be.
2. If we lose, it's a meaningless game played with funky rules and dominated by crooked officiating on someone else's home court.

Right?

Wild shot after wild shot not falling.

the gods have spoken. that just felt like a dagger. 

[Huskerpapa]

That may have been a dagger...but there is time, if we can execute.

[colhusker]

Palmer and Copeland are 9 of 26 tonight

[Cazzie22]

Need to finish at the rim.   MSU has just been tougher than NU.

[atskooc]

That exchange will probably do it. 

[HuskerBB]

I certainly agree with #2

I just hate the ho-hum we missed the tournament, screw the NIT- attitude. That’s like duke football being like “the foster farm bowl, pshhhh”.

they were probably talking about the consoles back at the training complex.
