Nebraska (13-10) vs. Purdue (16-5) Game Thread

[tcp]

still shooting poor from 2 pt range, but we're right in it and have plenty of room to improve our shots. Had too many attempts at 3 seconds or less. I counted about 8. 

 

Need to be quicker and more decisive on offense.

We need to keep fouling...but not with Roby for god's sake.

Well, well, well, looks like we got us a “game”...

Haarms with a stupid foul. Roby tells the world to hold his beer. Sigh. 

[HuskerBB]

Roby gets some of the worst phantom fouls called on him.     Would have been OK for Amir to foul there - but we did not want one called on Roby.

The replay showed Roby didn’t touch him. 

 

Which isn’t uncommon.

Really need to make friends with that shot clock a lot better. So many of our misses are on rushed shots at the end of the clock. 

If we can miraculously clean that up a bit, and work a bit harder securing misses on the other end, we have a chance in this thing. Purdue's not playing badly, so there's room for them to go both ways.

The team in the first half can compete and win games down the stretch to finish the season.  Tonight will be a tough one to pull out but the intensity, effort and most importantly the shot making can carry this team to several wins.  If this version of Nebraska would have shown up against Illinois, Rutgers, Maryland, etc, the situation wouldn't be so dire.

Fair enough. You're right. Not the first time he's been ghosted. Still keep the hands and body off to make sure there's no chance of that call. He knows how refs whistle him (an dhe's done a terrific job, btw, of improving on that issue, too).

Supporting cast did great that half. Something's gotta break with Watson, though. We have got to get anything going for him. 

Here's to slugging away in a good second half. Love how these guys are playing the game so far.

Glynn has to understand his shot is right there.  He needs to keep firing when he is open.

sigh. watson just butchering the clock. 

we're getting back into bad old habits early. 

[atskooc]

Trouble. 

[Huskerpapa]

good lord.

[Huskerpapa]

my gawd.  What an awful, awful sequence.

Purdue breaking it open now. Apparently we were happy with the first half. 

[Handy Johnson]

Get a TO, what the hell... why let em go on a run like that. Now where “F’d”
