Nebraska (7-8) (2-2) vs. Northwestern (5-9) (0-4) Game Thread

[colhusker]

Just a poor shot

[hhcmatt]

Pulling Cheatham for Kavas has been the right move

[colhusker]

They are doing EVERYTHING they can to let us come back

[The Polish Rifle]

I have had the 2nd half tuned into Kent P Radio - best decision I've made all day.

[Cazzie22]

The bank was open for Mack!

[demone]

Among many things that make me nuts, 2 of the biggest are...

 

1. Missing free throws

2. Piss poor fundamental rebounding technique

 

Consequently, it would not be a surprise if I am consuming massive amounts of alcohol for the remainder of this season.

[Shawn Eichorst's Toupee]

Death, taxes, and Cam Mack shooting the arrow.

Why do you run a play for Burke there? He 3-14 today for the record

Kent made it sound like Burke was fouled? any confirmation from those watching?

[atskooc]

Disappointing finish, but things certainly got better in the second half.

[colhusker]

Better second half.

Bad angles but it looked like he just changed the shot

No contact up top but a clear hip check

Looked like clean defensive play.

Might have been a bit of homerism on Kent’s part. Replay did not show he was fouled.

No timeout was called so I don't think A play for Burke was ran.  He just happened to take the shot.

Same play that they ran at the end of regulation vs. Indiana.

Good effort.  Put ourselves in position to win on the road in the last minute.  We really needed more help from the upperclassmen tonight.  Thor and Cheatham were nonexistent.  Kavas and Cross were bright spots, but we need upperclassmen to step it up and give Mack something to work with.

 

And good grief, shoot the ball when you’re open.  So much hesitation on offense tonight.  

[thrasher31]

And we have OSU in Columbus next. 

 

Grrreeeeaaaaattt

I think that's right.  He made Burke sort of double pump his shot, so didn't have enough "umph" on the release.

The last shot they showed of the play from a different angle showed  they solidly hit Burke on the shooting elbow.

Did you see the different angle. There was a camera angle from the baseline that showed he didn't double pump that was him getting hit on the shooting elbow.
