Watson playing MAN D in Baker.

[HuskerFever]

Seems like steals and blocks are aplenty tonight.

[hskr4life]

Getting sloppy.

[Cazzie22]

Why can’t we lengthen a lead instead of making silly mistakes?

[Handy Johnson]

That Rutgers squad is one BAD basketball team...

Roby, I love the guy. He is my son’s favorite player. But he’s become turnover prone the past few games. Some are on careless passes, others while driving and he coughs it up or dribbles off his foot.

We are the oldest team in the big ten yet still don’t know how to truly put our foot on the gas/throat for extended periods.

Yeah, exactly and all the more reason to step on their throats now, extend the lead and get our starters out of the game early to get them some rest.  It would be nice not to ride them for 35 minutes tonight.

[Cazzie22]

13 point lead disappears rapidly. 

[hskr4life]

Were up 31-18.  My God.

So what does that say about us?

[nustudent]

Pathetic

[tcp]

something about the last few minutes of a half. it just doesn't stop. 

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Any team that gives up a 15-0 run to Rutgers needs to possibly meet with Dr. Jack Stark.

[Cazzie22]

15-0 run by the Jersey Boys!

[Red Don]

Rapidly turning into a Grind it out Game.

[tcp]

is there a worse end of half team than NU? 

[huskerbaseball13]

Phew...Tim actually remembered he has timeouts. Better late than never 

[TomEadesSucks]

Did the teams switch  jerseys?

[B-town hoopsfan]

My displeasure with our senior guards is at a season high 

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Johnson just slam Roby’s head down?  Nobody saw that? Bardo says that’s tough?

[Handy Johnson]

Hope Roby’s alright... Ouch
