Creighton (5-1) vs. Nebraska (7-0) Game Thread

Baylor going to say something every time he makes one?  What a d bag

[Cazzie22]

Kalkbrenner is really influencing our shots inside.  We are very aware of his presence.  We have to play better defense to stay in contact.

These c#cksuckers have gotten away with about 7 or 8 travels.

unless teis defense starts defending, this game's gonna be over in the first 5 of the second half.

Better work on our composure at half time.

This is what I hate about Nebraska’s defense. There’s no answer when one guy goes off. Because if you do what we should be doing, essentially face guarding Baylor, it would ruin the entire integrity of our rotation defense.

8 V 5 is a disaster

Creighton has 6 fouls in 10 minutes.  I will be shocked if we shoot bonus shots in this half.

You called it. Somehow McDonuts can work the ref for 10 minutes straight, avoid a tech, and change the officiating for the remainder of the half.

Taunting is ok?

Well, if you're gonna get smoked, may as well make it worth your while and kick Shitheadman in the family jewels and fire the ball as hard as you can at McDoofus' face and wipe the smirk off his ugly melon.

[aphilso1]

So freakin pissed at that half. Everything went wrong. 
 

-we keep doubling and leaving wide open shooters

-those dickwads have made every open shot

-we’ve missed every open shot

-the refs felt guilt after calling a fair game for 10 minutes, and made up for it for the latter 10.

I understand defensive rotations but when a guy is going off like BS, make better decisions and force someone else to take it. Settling way too much for the 3 on offense. Make bad choices on both ends, good teams will make you pay. Lord, I hate that blue team so much & BS is so damn unlikeable.

[tcp]

well, this is the kind of game you dread when you're not sure if your unbeaten team is real or not.

[brfrad]

Brice goes straight up.  The Creighton guy travels, leans into Brice, gets the foul called, and Keisei gets a t.  Yet, Baylor blows kisses to the crowd (the very definition of taunting.  Should be a technical. 

 

We have to regain composure.  Realize the refs suck, deal with it and make some shots.  The first 4 minutes will be huge.

I wasn’t around for the Shim Shams that everyone loves to talk about. I can’t imagine it was worse than that halftime show

You can change the players. You can change the coaches. But Nebrasketball is always gunna Nebrasketball.

He’s playing for Ally…

Extremely disappointed. Our players are locked in to the hype and the emotion of the game. But we're absolutely not locked in to what it'd take to play effective winning basketball on either end of the court. We have players recklessly flying around the court on defense, yet we get caught sleeping and simply not guarding one of the best shooters in the country on numerous possessions. On ball defense is soft and porous, reminiscent of Hoiberg's first couple years. Transition defense is very poor. Getting outrebounded. Offensively we have individuals just doing their own thing on the majority of possessions. We're showing a lot of immaturity in this game. Hopefully we learn a lot from this going forward.

Lol! I just said to the guys next to me...the Shim Shams were better than that halftime show!

[Cornbread21]

The gravity of the game has gotten to us mentally. Overcontesting and making so many mental errors. Creighton players havebeen in these games before, we haven’t.

Most of Baylor's shots really had nothing to do with rotations. Simply the defender guarding him not being locked in.
