Michigan St. (17-11) vs. Nebraska (15-14) Game Thread

shitty call

 

[HuskerFever]

This second half performance my Michigan State doesn't surprise me one bit. But how much we deflated has made this a no-contest.

We need some more of that dazzling Ball Movement for points in the paint we saw in the 1st Half.

I hate 8 pm. tipoffs.  However, when you look at the number eight through biblical eyes, eight means new beginnings.  God saved 8 people on the Ark.  David, WHO SLEW GOLIATH, was the eighth son of Jesse.  The prophet Elijah performed 8 miracles.  Enjoy tonight!  

 

You left out the part about the 8 minute scoring drought...

I always wanted to relive the 2014 Ohio St B1G tournament game.  Coming off no sit sunday, All the momentum in the world, up 17 ----- Then BOOM, hit by a bus.

Paul Szelc; didn't he start his career out as a Janitor, like 'tv' Teddy Valentine did?

F the Net... F KenPom... F the "metrics"... this team is playing damn good basketball and we are... currently... one of the best 68 teams in the country.

 

I did say currently.... at the time... we were.

[brfrad]

I think we set a record for most illegal screens in a game.

[Bugeaters1]

Just how?

The more you make it in the net, the better your NET. Simple math.

2nd half 3P% by Michigan State.

 

2nd half scoring drought by Nebraska.

[hskr4life]

This one's not going to help the metrics.

It might make this a Quad 1 loss.

[FredsSlacks]

we probably need to beat iowa and win 3 btt games to make the ncaa tourney. i think the dream is over. not enough depth.

[basketballjones]

Yeeesh

[Bugeaters1]

Ok, kick me in the ass for saying would win by 20

I mean, I watched this game and still don't really comprehend wtf just happened. Dead on with the 2014 vibes someone mentioned a page or two back

[HuskerFever]

Hey, proud of this team. 2nd half was atrocious. But we're bruised and tired, had a lot of energy in this game; talent overtook us today. Doesn't underscore what this team has done in February and even parts of today.

[millerhusker]

Offensively, we're pretty good when we just get a damn shot off. Our 2FG% is higher than it's been since I don't know when (I looked back as far as 2008). But, with 14 turnovers and about 5 illegal screens, that's a lot of possessions without an attempted shot. This has been the theme all year. 

[hskr4life]

Unfortunately, we're staring a blowout loss to Iowa and a limping out loss to tOSU dead in the face.  

[Red Don]

WELP!!!

That was I,  It was that 2014 Ohio St game to the last detail. Most momentum the program had in years to the Hindenburg in matter of minutes.
