1) we miss Kobe. I believe he’s settle us down.

2) I could go a few season without Steve Max at halftime.

On the bright side, a certain other team is down 10 to Arkansas PB nearing half.

nu-3

W. Illinois - 20

Big Ten is down this year.

Instead of the halftime shoot around.  I think we should do rebounding drills the entire time.

That's kind of good news.  It means we will be 13 - 7 in Big 10, but go on the road in the NIT and lose to Colorado.

It'll get better.....

 

*please god get better*

[cipsucks]

It will all be fine.  Huskers win by double digits. Closer to 20 than 10.

Another stat that needs to get better.  3 assists on 14 makes.

Way better - hard to do that when a certain freshman has shown no interest in giving up the ball once he gets it. (Dammit - broke my promise to keep my mouth shut)

You just Knew the huskers had to go with the classic skers and give us a heart attack on night one, who's surprised here? Lol

[HuskerFever]

That'll wake em up.

[HolyBobpilgrimage]

I definitely didn't want a husker struggle bus tonight, but this is the kind of adversity that a team like us (any team) really needs early season. Good to see if they fight through,  how gritty they are. Really tests your team.

 

Another little positive : currently 14/15 from the line. Huskers (Bryce) shooting really well there. Need to work on D and discipline on all sides.

Can we maybe get this Charlie masters kid as a walk-on?  I’ve been impressed with that kid, turns on the jets when he dribbles and has passed, shot and played defense well.

This doesn't look good!

[HuskerFever]

We've made some very questionable passes in this game.

[atskooc]

At least Bryce showed up! 21-5 so far in his debut ain't too bad!

 

[Dean Smith]

I am not enjoying myself.

16 shot attempts is not good, though.  Way, way, way too much dribbling by he and Verge tonight.  Need to move the ball.

You said that a lot nicer than I would have. Thank you.

This is some of the most uninspiring, selfish, lazy basketball I’ve ever seen.
