Drake is the beginning of the season for real. No more gimmies from here on out.  Our size is our obvious advantage today, but we have to be aware

of their cuts to the basket. Give and goes. We're leaving the paint open way to much.

 

We've had way to many turnovers....taking bad shots. Got to fix that.

But I'm impressed with the number of steals and shot blocks we are getting.  :Cheer2::Cheer2::Cheer2:  What a fast-paced game!!!

Drake is very aggressive. At this rate accumulating fouls could become a factor.
 
(Berg has three, it nothing else it could affect her playing time)

That's a great win.  Drake is pretty darn good.  It's tough to play against that type of team - chasing them all over the court and having to watch for the back cuts every possession.  It just wears you out, but Huskers forced a ton of turnovers.  Nebraska adjusted well to deny the 3 after the first few minutes and did a real good job making the extra pass on offense to get good shots.

KUDOS to the Officials for a Well-Officiated Game! Let 'em play, but called what was necessary! :Bow::Bow::Bow:
 

One of the few times I'll ever agree with such a statement!  Usually you can count on 5 to 10 ridiculous WTF calls by The Three Stooges, but they mostly kept themselves unnoticed, which is precisely what they're supposed to do.  It was actually nice to see them call Drake for some fouls when the Bulldogs decided to amp up the pushing and shoving to try and get back in the game.
