Verge had 2 turnovers in that stretch that shouldn't have happened. Made the pass to walker a lot harder than it needed to be and shouldn't have forced it into Lat. Holy hell

And yet he will still start the remainder of this absolutely pathetic season

[HuskerFever]

As much as people all season have hated Verge for not passing the ball, he is #27 in the nation for assists per game.

[Faux Mike Peltz]

What does he rank in over dribbled possessions where he throws up a shot and expects a foul that never gets called and misses? I’m guessing he’s I. The top ten on that…

[huskerbill85]

What a pass

[hhcmatt]

Got a basket but good lord is Kobe Webster one of the worst fast break leader I've ever seen in my life

[huskerbill85]

Northwestern sucks

[NUdiehard]

Went on that run with Bryce on the bench. 

[bkamler]

We played better after Bryce was benched.

Halftime Stats: 

 

If it weren't for Northwestern's 7 unguarded three-pointers We'd have a pretty good Lead!!

5 total fouls at halftime after 20+? versus Maryland last game.

[hhcmatt]

Decent recovery from that start

[NUdiehard]

Bryce is such a liability on defense he is a net negative overall.

But what about the big ten freshman of the week awards????

 

I agree with you, but can’t stand when people brag about this for him. We have 1 conference win.

Trevor Lakes retweeting during the game sort of season

Did I just miss Lakes on the bench?  I don’t see him.

He's injured so he might've not made the trip. Idk if Wilhelm did either

[HuskerFever]

Bryce is the 2nd highest P6 freshman in PPG, just behind Banchero at Duke (16.9 PPG vs 16.8).

I haven't actively looked for him, so I'll take your word for it lol

And now all-time leader in Nebraska basketball for freshman points.

[thrasher31]

Bryce broke the record on a dunk on ty berry. 

[HuskerFever]

Looks like Dave Hoppen had 32 games to get his record. This is game #27 for Bryce.

You're right. I see him in his usual black jacket

Gives me something to watch other than the product on the floor.

[bkamler]

Bryce is hitting his usual 4 for 11 shooting pace.
