Yes there is Bugs......  :)

 

Will watch with interest....the skill level of OSU roster. Noticed they don't have a Sr on their roster

 

The Nebraska women's basketball team will face its fifth RPI Top 25 opponent in the last six games, when the Huskers complete a two-game season series at Ohio State on Wednesday. Tip-off between the Huskers (16-10, 6-9 Big Ten) and the surging Buckeyes (16-9, 9-5 Big Ten) is set for 6 p.m. (CT) at Value City Arena in Columbus, Ohio.

Nebraska suffered a 60-56 loss at RPI No. 12 Northwestern on Sunday. The Huskers held a 56-51 lead with 2:45 left, but the Wildcats scored the game's final nine points to escape with the victory and extend their winning streak to five games. Northwestern improved to 22-3 and 12-2 in the Big Ten.

Kate Cain continues to rewrite the Nebraska record book for blocked shots. The 6-5 center from Middletown, N.Y., has smashed the Husker career mark with 272 blocks in 88 games. The previous record, which stood for 38 years, was 238 blocks in 136 games by Janet Smith (1979-82).
Cain had seven blocks and a career-high four steals to go along with her fifth Big Ten double-double of the season with 12 points and 12 rebounds at Northwestern on Sunday. Cain accounted for 22 defensive stops against the Wildcats. 
Cain has pushed her Nebraska junior season record total to 93 blocks - the second-best season total overall in school history, trailing only her 100 blocks as a freshman in 2017-18. Cain, who leads the Big Ten and ranks third nationally with 3.6 blocks per game, is averaging 6.2 blocks the past six games, including eight to go with 14 points and 13 boards in the first meeting with Ohio State.

i really thought osu would be playing better than they have. even though the talent is young i figured they would be hanging in that 2nd spot. 

gonna have to control miller and greene-------then, you have bell coming off the bench. hopefully Juhasz won't come out raining 3's. she will get at least a couple being at home. just a tough one at osu. i could see another battle like at PBA, but, it also wouldn't surprise me if osu runs away with this one.

Which one?    (I need to scout the Officials better)

Kanter, even though she got kicked out of the WNBA. she is one of the better refs that the B1G hires. Lisa Mattingly is prolly the best ref in the college game. we get her some times. Kanter is the dirty blonde.

That's the problem with these coaches... After 4 years you would think the players would get better at what they arent!!

 

But it typical fashion this year I see a 4th quarter comeback and loss by 5 happening.

Or, we recognize the need for a ball handler, and recruit one.
