uneblinstu's postgame chatter: vol 13; ed 23 - vs. Minnesota

[uneblinstu]

That was the only reason he played this year. If it would have put next year in jeopardy, he wouldn’t have played at all. Robin, Bas, and others all made that point several times when it happened.

March 10, 2019. Iowa at home. 93-91 in OT.

 

FG: 51.5%

3P: 50.0%

Ft: 50.0%

 

NU finished that game with 50%+, also on Senior Day, against Iowa in 2019-20 but to get there they didn't quite have at least 50% in those categories in each half. Tonight the Huskers had 50%+ in every category, and in both halves.

And, it was really, really fun to see Nebraska's players, coaches, and fans (I presume) all enjoying a victory tonight. I could see the Husker players & coaches enjoying it on TV, and that was very fun. Let's do this, i.e. winning, more often! Can't wait to watch them in-person next season. Should be a lot of fun, and hopefully a lot more victories are in store. GBR

All of the feels.

No one was “to be fair” to us when we had no Walker for much of the season.  And no one was “to be fair” to us when our players had to sit out for a month mid-season.  And no one is “to be fair” to us when our players struggle with post-Civid fatigue.  And no one is “to be fair” to us when we play a game every other day (with a back-to-back slipped in there just for the heck-of-it).

I am happy we won the game .  You would have to agree our task would have been more difficult if those two had played.  Pleased that the team has endured a stretch of bad luck and comes to play nearly every night.

Curiouser and curiouser!  My list of things I never thought I would see this year just keeps growing. 1. Two players go off for 41 points and their teams losing each game. 2. A team not playing or practicing for almost a month and then playing every other night for almost the next month 3. Sort of enjoying a season in which our team loses so much. Last night's victory just makes me want to follow this team down the next rabbit hole as the season unfolds to see what is going to happen next.

No one was "to be fair" to us when Teddy hurts his hand and is essentially MIA for the last two games either.

Since Lakes was eligible and played, his fourth year (senior year) was this year.  As with the other seniors who opt to come back, he should not count against the limit next year.

Robin actually came out and said that since it was a special waiver given to transfers this year is the one that doesn’t count against them but next year would.

I'm kinda surprised no comments were made about Trey pulling an imaginary arrow out of an imaginary quiver and shooting it in the air with an imaginary bow.

 

I thought we frowned upon such actions at Nebraska.

I think it was mentioned in the game thread. By my count he's fired off 1 imaginary arrow for every 5 star he's landed us. Any more in the quiver?

Hey, I wore my autographed Cam Mack hat yesterday that I found @ Goodwill for luck, & it paid off...!

[jimmykc]

Be sure to put it on tomorrow...in fact, you had better wear it to bed tonight, just to be safe.

Unless we somehow get Fernando Rodney pitching for the Huskers, then it's all good.
