Huskers win.

I'll go reluctantly. Just looking forward to Longwells after honestly

Looking forward to a Big Red victory over those pesky, similarly-colored Knights from the State University of New Jersey.

This same Rutgers team that scored 93 on us won a game 11 days later 48-46 over Iowa at home. That's nuts.

Fran needs to focus on playing offense and not make his players expend all their energy on defense...

I was extremely close to not going to this tomorrow. Decided to go. Last night just got me thinking about everything that's happened to get to this point, and I stopped having joy from basketball. Woke up in a better mood, but it's draining man. 

 

Got through January, which was our gauntlet. Hopefully they can get some wins to close out. It's draining at this point

Speaking of which, I'm doing the dry January thing this year.  Disconnecting myself from the hoops program has certainly aided in me making it all the way.

Congrats in advance.

 

But if anybody knows about droughts, it's Nebraska basketball.

I have the Wednesday of the BTT, so I’m still alive.

More family obligations will keep me sidelined again today. Can’t for the life of me understand why people don’t take a terrible basketball teams game times into consideration when scheduling these things. 

[Cowboy Kermit]

Would not expect to see Alonzo Verge at all today.

I wonder if this turns into a Teddy Allen situation from last year. Great player, but team seems to function better without him

I long for the days where I would be pumped up for Husker Basketball games.  Days when we were not eliminated from the dance by the midway mark of conference play every year.

We're going to see a lot more Keisei I think as he's been the odd man out with Trey back

[demone]

I am suddenly ever-so-slightly more intrigued to watch this game tonight. Not a high bar to clear, but still.

[Huskerpapa]

Lot a talk here about Verge being gone...Covid?  Discipline?
