RUTGERS GAME DAY THREAD

[HUD]

If I remember correctly player development across the team from year to year has been a sore point in this forum for most of Amy's career.

Everybody...deep breath.   Okay, proceed.

Yes our inside game wasn't there but we did miss at least 10 point blank layups.

This happens in most of our games.  I don't get it.

Well he is not doing a very good job of developing Markowski. 

Cain development was also questionable.  Her freshman year, might have been her best.

Deep breath! Everyone needs to understand that Allison isn’t coming back.  We are a much better team than what was displayed at Rutgers.  We are not a top team in the league.  I expect better play from our veterans and better adjustments from the coaching staff.  Some new wrinkles on offense would be welcome.  

 

Making a high per percentage of shots sometimes is fools gold making one believe the team is playing well.  We need tougher play offensively from all of our post players.  Let’s hope we keep battling.

Broken record for the third game.  No post play, 9 pts. and 5 rebs as a combined effort will not cut it.  You have talent there get them involved in the game.  Defensively it's a team sport not five individuals.  Finally offensively ball movement is good thing.  There is more to the game than 3 pt. shooting, I'm not really sure the coaching staff has figured that out.

Basically all out lousy effort, most high schools in Nebraska would have beat them in this game.  Turn the page and move forward.

Dang, quite a flurry of activity on this post in the last 24 hrs!  I love reading the opinions & analysis that people bring to the table 

Wednesday will be a very telling game for me in terms of how they respond to such a bad game on Saturday. Wish it wasn’t on BTN Plus - I don’t get that channel and I refuse to pay extra for it.

at the start of the season, i had Iowa, OSU, Maryland, Indiana (in no particular order here) as the "elite" of the Big Ten. Now, i believe we can add Illinois and Michigan to the pot. except for maybe Minny, Wisconsin, and Rutgers...the rest will jockey for positioning. does the NCAA take 8 teams?

We have opportunities especially in road games to help ourselves going forward.  It won't be easy.  The clock is ticking.  Was the Rutgers loss a sign of things to come or just an aberration.  The answer starts Wed. against a good Penn. St. team.

don't like saying this so early in the Big Ten season.....but, huskers have to win this game.

[All About the Corn]

Must win or we further find ourselves down the rabbit hole.

Might be a good idea to guard Marisa of Penn St.  She went off on us last year. Good player.

wonder what the deal is with Johnasia Cash.......she came into the league tearing it up.....had great games against nebraska. she doesn't appear in any stat lines so far.
