This is a game with two .500 teams overall record. We're quite a bit better in the league. Their primary scorers are their two forwards, Lewis and Howard. Howard is their best re-bounder.

 

Haiby will score some layups, we'll rebound well. All of our line up will have some success running Coaches schemes. Our shooting percentage must improve to above.... or about 40%

 

After Coaches last press conference, I expect the girls to be ready to go.

 

We will win.

Wisy isn't a great 3 shooting team at .277% so watch them go off on us. FG% per game is .241% but for the season they are .38%  FT% is .535

I know very little about the Badgers.  Maybe the girls will play more relaxed on the road and get a victory.

Nebraska is coming off a narrow 58-54 loss to Northwestern in a defensive struggle at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln on Thursday night. The Huskers trailed by 10 points midway through the third quarter before rallying to take a one-point lead in the final minute. However, Northwestern made the plays in the final 30 seconds to escape with a win.

Scouting The Wisconsin Badgers
• Wisconsin is led by senior Marsha Howard, who is averaging team highs with 12.4 points and 9.3 rebounds per game. The 6-0 forward also ranks second on the team with 21 steals on the year.

• As a team, Wisconsin is averaging 63.8 points per game on the season, but that production has dipped to 59.0 points in Big Ten play. The Badgers have allowed just 60.8 points per game on the year, but that number has ballooned to 71.9 points in conference action.

• In Big Ten play, Wisconsin is shooting just 38.2 percent from the field, including just 27 percent (30-111) from three-point range and 52.1 percent (86-165) at the free throw line. The Badgers carry a minus-1.6 rebound margin and a minus-3.0 turnover margin in the Big Ten.

Wisky isn't.

 

Show them no mercy Huskers... (I know it's Sunday)

[Bugeaters1]

Well I guess Wisy's FT % is no lie. Also seems that they don't play strong defense. 11 offensive rebounds for the Huskers.

Simon is having a nice game.  Hannah and Taylor are finding the range.  Nicea is being Nicea.  So far, so good.

Agree, Maddie looks a lot better than she has in awhile.

[Bugeaters1]

Also the zone that wisy is playing, doesn't seem to be effecting us so far.

[Fastbreaker]

Golly, we have turned into the men's team

[redsteve]

Our offense is so mechanical. No freedom to execute.

 

Defense ? Their inside game is eating our lunch

[Omahusker]

Let’s go Kate

[redsteve]

Looked like the ref's didn't want Verbeek to play today. She got robbed

Horrible no call on Nicea lay up

[Fastbreaker]

We can't make a lay up, we can't stop a lay up

[Fastbreaker]

We just made a very important lay up

[KarlHessEatMy....]

Did they really get a shot off in .7sec?

[Bugeaters1]

That was a kick in the nuts. but the Huskers shouldn't have been in that position to lose that game.

[Fastbreaker]

Ref said they did

She caught the in bounds throw, and then reset her feet to shoot...in  .07 sec. ...... possible ? not so sure

Wasted a terrific game by Nicea.

Can't say for sure since I can't see the action, but sounds like something of a rip off.  Biased shot clock operator.  Where does the unbelievable happen?  When you follow sports!!  Bad enough she got the ball and made the shot.  Needless to say we let this one slip away with poor execution down the stretch.
