[Bugeaters1]

I'm headed to Lincoln to see the game tonight. Here's to a victory.

We will win, the two questions are; how well will we shoot, and how much will we win by?

Hope we shoot the 3 ball better than we have been.

Although, after we started out 1 for 10 in our last outing, we settled in and shot a bit over 40%.  I will certainly take the latter over the former.

[hskr4life]

We're actually at 37.1% for the year.  This is the highest mark of the TM era, and the highest since our '09-'10 squad shot just over 39%.

 

We are at 37.1% despite a really rough start last game, and a cold stretch in our first game I believe. 

 

In '09-'10, we attempted 547 threes and made 217.  This year we are on pace to attempt 961 threes and make about 357 threes.  That would be a net gain in points by +420 in favor of this years team.

 

So in reality, we aren't shooting it that bad so far.  We need it to continue to be upper 30's and lower 40's however.  We also have a small sample size to go off of for the year.

[Norm Peterson]

I just had to look.  We had a high-water mark in Doc's 4th year where we averaged almost 40% from three.

 

The surprisingly bad season was Miles year 3, the year after our NCAA tourney run, where we were about 28% from three.  Surprising because it's not what we would have anticipated heading into the season.  But looking back on the bad year, everyone would say, yeah, makes sense.

 

But -- without looking! -- tell me who you think was THE MOST ACCURATE 3-POINT SHOOTER in the Nebraska basketball program for a single season in the last 15 seasons.  Let's say more than just a trivial number of attempts, so we don't count the year David Rivers hit his one and only trey.

 

Without looking.  Who do you guess?

 

I'll tell after the game.

I'll guess Marcus Perry, but it's probably wrong.

Correct. That’s wrong.

[Norm Peterson]

Have a feeling we’re about to get a lot better sense of what kind of basketball team we have this year. 

[skerbball]

I’m guessing Brian Conklin? 2003-2004 season. That 2004 NIT game at Hawaii was insane. 

[Cowboy Kermit]

Time to make a statement and show we mean business

[kleitus]

Michigan taking it to nova early....

I’m counting this year, so I’m not counting that year.

Seton Hall is so deer in the headlights the guy forgot to jump at the tip.

[Cowboy Kermit]

I know it's been said plenty before but Copeland's jumper is so damn smooth 

[hskr4life]

Palmer Cold.... Trying to do too much.

We look tight. Guys hanging a lot on this game. 

[hskr4life]

We look tight and still just 7-5.  It'll get better me thinks.
