Nebraska (7-1) vs. Minnesota (6-2) Game thread

I remember when we were almost always the lesser talented team and we would make a run against the better team to grab a lead.  Then the better team reasserted themselves and you knew the chances of an upset were slim.

 

It sure feels like we are wearing that shoe on the other foot this year.  We turned that 4 point deficit around very quickly.

That was a fun first half except for the 3 and a half minutes they disappeared.  Some questionable shot selection and lack of movement during that span.  Brady on the offensive end has been really helpful at times.  NU needs to be better rebounding, they're getting killed on the boards, so putting him in there (and Amir too to a degree) was a really good move.  Getting out of the funk that started or MN was causing and pushing through it finally and regaining the lead in the game was awesome to see.

 

They're sitting OK with PF's, Cope, Borchardt, and Nana with 2 of the team's 9... especially when you see that Coffey has 3 of MN's team 6.  4 free throws for NU to MN's 17 is a killer, and a lot of those let them back in this game.
