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

When two of our other starters have combined for six points, maybe he feels he needs to take command?

 

And he's 90% from the line.

 

I trust him with the ball in his hand at this point.

Scrap and claw, guys. A win is a W is a W is a W.

But fuuu.... How horrible a L would feel tonight. Knock on wood.

Verge and Bryce have dribbled into the lane far too many times, with nowhere to go.

Husker fans love grit. We eat it UP. Maybe this fail performance of a game has forced it out of these guys.

We already know we have good talent. It goes to prove to all of us that a team that's well coached and out-efforts ya can beat you any time. We're in a hole because we didn't put it all out there and ran a stagnant offense.

The basketball is bad, but how about this reffing - woof!

[HolyBobpilgrimage]

Verge hits the kobe shot. We can clap when it goes in, but that's still a bad bit of O..

 

Haha I'm starting to like the new tradition people up here have made tonight of yelling "Rebound!!"  every time on D after a shot. Gonna be yearlong. Lol

Is the game over yet? Sounds like we have laid an egg.

We have 8 minutes to avoid the "epitome of brutality" tweet.

Bryce playing like Teddy tonight.

[HolyBobpilgrimage]

Don't worry... I see Creighton is having their own similar issues with Ark - PB. it's okay, other good teams are having struggles too. Gotta shake out the kinks. Might be 5 games of this but I hope we figure things out sooner....  For God's sake

[hhcscott]

Can we all agree not to schedule any more season openers against teams from Illinois?

Can I change my season win total prediction?

 

Unless Lat is some major glue guy….we are in trouble.

It's definitely a little... Yikes. Not the worst I've seen, but it's sketchy for sure. We have ourselves to blame for most of this debacle.

[atskooc]

This continues to look....not good.

[jimmykc]

What is score and time. No radio.
