Nebraska (7-22)(2-16) vs. Michigan (18-11) (9-9) Game Thread

Here's a crazy idea.  I don't know if it will work, but maybe we could get a shot off instead of handing the ball to Michigan.

It's not often where you can identify someone as being the absolute worst, in the whole entire world.  But you can with Michigan's PA announcer.  The absolute worst.  A pox on Michigan athletics for employing him.

What is our record for most turnovers in a game?  We might blow past that.

What is our record for shooting percentage within 3 feet of the basket? We might blow that "worst" record out of the water this season.

Arop is athletically developed going straight up. But he needs some serious body development so he can move laterally and out of a defensive stance. He really struggles to get from drive help to close-out. 
 

The more I watch him though, the more I hope he stays around. His weaknesses are fixable and his strengths aren’t teachable.

Love seeing Arop get some serious run. Also love the Ouedraogo and Cross/Arop front court lineup. Doesn't hurt to try at this point.

Halftime Stats:

We're outrebounding them 24-18.

 

There's hope!

[HuskerFever]

I'll take that halftime score. Yet, we're bound to get blown out in the 2nd half. Haven't played stellar, but neither has Michigan.

83.3% in free throws at half? We're going to mess up our chances at #1!

[Silverbacked1]

Think the O runs better with out somebody that is not there and will remain nameless.

Husker Ladies Lead Michigan 42-34 at the Half!

The fun thing about this is that Michigan is one of the worst teams in Div-1 in generating turnovers.

Just wanted people to know that this is the first game where Cross and Yvan played at the same time.  Already feels like we won this one!

I think early in the year someone said something along the lines up 'we FINALLY have a coach that can make half time adjustments'. 

[atskooc]

Welp.

[Handy Johnson]

3 travels by Yvan, down 12... it was fun while it lasted.

[Faux Mike Peltz]

This season is like rinse, wash, repeat - but on the wrong end...

They really aren't generating turnovers in this game.  We are basically handing them the ball.

 

We have 16 turnovers.  Record is 31.

Simpson has 5 assists.  Our team has 4.
