Huskers Close Regular Season at Penn State Saturday
• The Nebraska women’s basketball team closes 2019 regular-season Big Ten Conference play by traveling to Penn State on Saturday afternoon.
 
• Tip off between Nebraska (13-15, 8-9 Big Ten) and the Lady Lions (12-16, 5-12 Big Ten) is set for 2 p.m. (CT). Live radio coverage (beginning at 1:45 p.m.) can be heard in Lincoln on B107.3 FM,

Lets hope the Huskers play today like they have been playing on the road. And finish 9-9 in conference.

 

 

Big game for the program.   Keeps a flicker of flame alive for some level of postseason play.   I don't have time to figure out what it does for the Big 10 tournament, but I assume a win would matter a couple of places at least for the regular season standings.

loss would put us 8 to 9 and a win would put us 6 or 7.  The worst would be 7 as we have 3 tie breakers. 

 

6-7 gets us in top half, which Moos has emphasized is a big factor in evaluating our programs.    Given the youth, and the difficult preseason start, I think a top half finish would be great.

We seem to be handling pressure poorly, as usual.

Need to get a guard that can handle that shit.

Penn Sta isn't very good...not much talent. A little surprising. 

 

....we should prevail. Just make a decent % on our shots.  Refs are letting them play....we play that way to, and it will take care of it's self. 

How long before Washington is let go. her good years were with the previous coaches talent.
