This team is SOOOOO much more likable than recent prior iterations.  It sure seems like we have a much stronger culture, a team with pieces that actually fit well together and most importantly, a team that is completely bought in to the "team" and not themselves as individuals.  Looking forward to tomorrow night!

Unless I missed it, there were more questions in here about their game on Saturday than he was about their game on Wednesday.

Someone actually brought up Kansas who they play on the 17th

Woodson's a pro for sure.

I got a chuckle out of the last question where I assume a student reporter asked a guy who basically models his program on toughness whether or not he had some toughness drills and the PG-13 answer he gave.

Wasn’t it a 17 or so point spread against lil c? Looks like we will win by 14 this time.

On Wednesday's matchup against Nebraska 

• “They’re a different ball club this season." Nebraska won 63-53 at No. 7 Creighton on Sunday. The Cornhuskers are off to a 6-3 start with wins over Maine, Nebraska-Omaha, Arkansa-Pine Bluff, Florida State, Boston College and Creighton. They've lost to Saint John's, Oklahoma and Memphis. 

 

• “They got big fella Derrick Walker." Walker is a 6-foot-9 senior averaging 16.8 points and 9.5 rebounds in four games this year.
• “The guard they got who I like is Sam Griesel. He’s pretty damn good." Griesel is a 6-foot-7 senior averaging 11.3 points, 5.6 rebounds and 4.9 assists.
• "[Nebraska] will press some, 2-3 zone, 1-3-1. They zone out of bounds plays. It’s nothing new that we have not seen, but we got to come out and compete for 40 minutes."
• “We can’t lose ground early, and I get it’s early, but we can’t lose ground and you got to take care of home."
• “We didn’t lose very many games at home, and that part has go to be there if you’re talking about trying to win a Big Ten title."
  
  Not much said about us...seems to be most about games before and after.  Hope they pay this much attention at game time

OWH showed the spread at Indiana -2.  I about ran out to my bank before they opened. Not that I don't have confidence in winning the game tonight.

 Spread is 12.5

[Handy Johnson]

I’m channeling my inner Dachon Burke tonight & hoping for a Win…! 

[Bugeaters1]

I'm not listening to the pre game is there any truth to this?

While I’d obviously love to win tonight, it’s gonna take a Herculean effort. But I really hope Sam is back for Saturday. Hopefully we can get a rocking crowd and then anything can happen.

[mkroll12345]

No Jalen Hood for Indiana, its possible to still win but man thinking what could've been if we had Sam

[cipsucks]

 

This will help the Huskers.  

 

 

[Huskerpapa]

Well...crap!

[throwback]

Ugh - going to be really, really tough without Griesel.

[Lohusker]

Start Blaise and put Walker at Point! Kidding. Sort of.

[Huskerpapa]

Should be interesting.

Who is Izzo referencing when he says "our kids still has to go to classes?"
