So do you have to subscribe to + or can you view it with a cable (Dish) account?

Subscription.  I made the move from cable to Hulu Live and got a package deal though.  Hulu Live, ESPN+, and Disney+ and was still cheaper than Dish.  Hulu Live also has BTN.

[All About the Corn]

My only internet option is by satellite and last time I checked, it was going to be about as much as my Dish bill.

Sign up for a month (single school - $9.95 + tax).   There are quite a few Husker baseball and softball games scheduled on B1G+ for the next 30 days.  Easy to cancel.

Missing Sam and Allison W unfortunately, may be the difference.  Hopefully both the Kendall's, Hake, and Maddie hopefully can fill the gap. The bench has been looking improved recently.

Or it might be a long night.

 

To bad it's not on a neutral court.

 

We definitely have a good chance. The super 16 is down to the better teams. We're one of those teams, and on any given night we're pretty darn good.

[HUD]

Maybe Jaz will be on fire tonight.

Sam put out a statement on twitter about her season ending injury on Sunday.

My bad.    Was thinking B1G+.   Game is on ESPN+.   Apologies.

I will be listening while following the men's games.  Let's go be road warriors Huskers!!  GBR!!  I'm hoping we will at least hang in there until the final stages and have a chance to win at the end.

[Red Don]

5-11 @ TO 4:12.   We could use a Bella in the Paint!

(to counter Jackson)

At the end of 1Q Kansas leads by 5 (13-18)

Our Treys are keeping us in the game, but Kansas has a more consistent attack in the paint! We're really missing Sam & Allison Weidner.

 

Sorry, program won't let me post the 1 Q Stats

Another obvious delay of game, after a made bucket by Kansas, with seconds left in the half.  Refs haven't been enforcing that much this year.

 

Only down 5 at the break.  Not playing badly.  We're in it.

[Red Don]

Huskers get their first points in the second quarter by a pull-up jumper by Annie Stewart @ 3:55

Kansas is having trouble scoring too, a low scoring game! (18-24).  

 

Sorry I think ESPN+ went off-line for awhile    (Maybe 'll be able to watch the game on re-runs )

Halftime Stats:  

 

ESPN back on but Husker Radio Network seems to be down 

 

[mwm89]

Alexis needs to try to stay in the game and be at least somewhat productive.  

[Red Don]

ESPN + Sucks. 4:24 left in Q3 and ESPN+ is still in Halftime.

[Red Don]

Stats at the end of 3 qtrs of play:    Husker Ladies are still in it!

Nebraska: 6-21 for 3P%

Kansas: 4-21

 

Need to win the paint in these last 6 minutes.

[Huskerpapa]

Welp.  Decent effort, and certainly not the result we wanted. 

 

Thank you ladies!

[Red Don]

FINAL (Stats):

A Good Effort (but we missed Sam Haiby & Alison Weidner)
A Good Season!!!

Bummer.  Always hate to see the season come to an end.  Pretty good effort under the circumstances.  Never could get it to within one possession in the last few minutes.  Legs tired, shots didn't fall for us in the stretch.  Now we look to see what happens in the offseason.  Not a really good season, but enjoyed following it as always.  They made it interesting in the postseason by getting a couple of wins, which I enjoyed going to.  GBR!!

[redsteve]

Tough loss. On the one hand we fought hard, but just seemed to be a little off shooting. 38%  The loss of Sam and Allison ultimately probably made some difference. 

It's tough that we lost two key players this year. So we had to adjust, and others did step up when needed.  Lots of headaches this year, heads in your hands... and stuff happening by the refs, etc etc. But tons of fun things to. Had some good wins against good teams.

 

But we were determined tonight and gave it all the team had.  KU got a couple of breaks in the later part of the game that helped them. 

 

The women deserve a lot of credit for their hard work, and toughness by putting it all on the line, no matter what..all year. They have put on a great show. Hope the aussies can come back !

 

I've certainly enjoyed it all....already doing mental gymnastics on what next years line up might look like.

 

GBR  !!

Markowski scored 2 points on 1 for 10 shooting (0 for 4 on 3's); Shelly was 5 for 15 from the field, 1 for 7 on 3s, and 1 for 5 on FTs.  All that along with 6 for 26 3 pt shooting tells the story.
