Nebraska (10-12) vs. Illinois (15-6) Game Thread

If this team could just figure out who should be shooting the ball and who shouldn’t it could have a chance

 

and quit turning it over. 

[Red Don]

Hey back to a one Point Game!!!

OOPS Tominaga shot blocked by a Goal Tend, but refs didn't call it! Trey by Tominaga for his revenge.

Huskers Lead 50-48!!!

(Panic tweet to Refs: Illinois isn't lookig too good; Get Back on the Job!)

Yet another box out foul.

That Shannon kid shoots “like a GIRL”

 

stealing a kind of quote from a great movie

[HuskerBB]

How many times can we get called for fouls when trying to block out for a defensive rebound and not leaving our feet in the process.   I count 4 in this game so far?

 

[millerhusker]

Our excessive blockouts are stupid. Stop complaining about it and just adjust. Good job boxing out, but when the ball is descending just go get it. Giving Illinois extra possessions. 

[NUdiehard]

Blocking out is now officially a foul—only on Nebraska of course.

Quit telling the truth.  It makes all the rest of us look insane.

The mentality of not wanting to take accountability is an issue

[Huskerpapa]

That sure was a late call.

What a creighton troll world say or a Nebraska fan with his head up his ass would say.

Not only that, but it was the wrong call

[HuskerBB]

 

Killer cheap foul on Walker on a really late call.   Almost like the ref was looking for a way to call a foul on Walker.

 

[Huskerpapa]

Illinois just turned on both faucets

[atskooc]

We’re staring 20 turnovers in the face.

what the hell

[Huskerpapa]

Isn't it pathetic.   Sam has a ball that hangs on the rim, and comes off.  Then a questionable foul call against one of our studs...then all turns to crap for a spell.

[Huskerpapa]

That Spectrum commercial needs to go away.

[Huskerpapa]

Another late...questionable bailout call.

[nuhusker7]

I hate big ten refs

[Silverbacked1]

All I know is that this same Illinois team made us look really poor a couple of weeks ago at home and we are hanging.  We most likely aren’t going to win but we are playing as hard as possible and for that I am very proud

[hhcmatt]

lost a 6'11" guy in the paint

[hskr4life]

Just embarrassing to give up a run that big.  We were in this.  One of a few winnable situations we’ll find ourselves in the rest of the year and we have given it away.
