Free Throws will lose us at least 1... if not multiple games... this year.  Mark it down.

What is the B1G buyout to relegate NU to the Missouri Valley Conference?

He's a clone of the Iowa/Illinois bench kids who has a career night against us a few times each season.

Literally he has more points against us in one half than in his entire career (5 games) at UAPB 

Historically we have to be the leaders in the stat of kids that don't usually score much that have career shooting nights when they play us and no one will convince me otherwise.

Exactly. It points to a fundamental lack of defensive fundamentals. We give up buckets to anyone and everyone.

Over helping like crazy.

UAPB is a group of guys who don’t care about anything but getting theirs. Right now they are shooting hot but. We always seem to play so tight.

Helping off shooters one pass away. Not ideal

And they are "getting" at a 67% rate from 3, which is probably better than we shoot FT

Can we get a 2 for 1 coach hiring announcement next week?

That too

Arkansas Pine Bluff is not as good when we actually guard the 3 point line. Who would guess?

Yeah but that's one of those "junk" defenses that only work in certain situations.

[brfrad]

One area I see as improvement is we seem to care about boxing out.  Maybe it's just me.

[hskr4life]

Keisei's all around game has improved this year.

[hhcscott]

Ref was wide open for a three on at UAPB pass

Really good thing Hoiberg is great at halftime adjustment

This aged well

Keita showing some offense.

[hhcscott]

Credit where it's due, they figured some things out this half.

[MichHusker]

Halves like these give you hope we can scrap and win some games this year. We can be so bipolar it seems.

Your Final::: Huskers Win!!! 82-58

I wasn't able to watch most of the second half. Can......... somebody explain to me how we went from a nail biter game to a blowout?

 

Let me guess. Fred pulled out those magical set plays?

UAPB shooting regressed to the mean. Huskers contributed by putting more effort on arc d and Huskers started using Griesel in a pseudo Derrick Walker post-distributor role.

I think this was the biggest factor. They really had no answer for it.
