And they foul us on every drive.  No call.  

So you're saying we will get called for charge when we attack?

[cipsucks]

ALLICK!

[cipsucks]

We're up 4 with less than 2 to go.

[tcp]

damask doing some real damage...

[HuskerBB]

Is Coleman Hawkins exempted from the traveling rule?

[Bugeaters1]

that was a walk

 

[cipsucks]

36-34 Huskers at half.  I'll take it.

[Huskerpapa]

Well, kind of a crappy end to the half; but hey, we're up by two!

[HuskerFever]

Tell me this halftime score for this game and I'd take it every single time.

[brfrad]

What does it take to call a travel?  Hawkins took 4 steps on that runner?

[tcp]

bad last couple of minutes there again. what isit with us annd the end of halves....sigh.

[Huskerpapa]

Perhaps calls will now start evening out.

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Up by 2 and playing w good energy and effort. Hopefully Wilcher gets freed up. Good offense by KT so far 

[tcp]

one more just like it and we got the upset of the year....and a likely ticket stampt to the tourney. 

[tcp]

just bear down and overcome ref show. they've gotta at least have some confidence right now. everything going against them and they're still leading. go win this sucker, guys.

Huskers by 2 at the Half (36-34)

JL needs to pick up his play.  Sloppy passing has hurt us.  We have to be strong with the ball. On the road you have to play through the reaching and grabbing.  We can win this game.  Brice will step up.

[cipsucks]

My Morris Albert curse has worked so far.  Hey, look at what that Tominaga guy is doing!  

[hal9000]

Just got to keep it together if / when Illinois goes on a run or gets some momentum.  

[Vinny]

My wish for the first four minutes: a third foul on Hawkins.

JL and his decisions with the ball. Just don’t hurt us JL. Play sound defense and don’t pass to the team with Illinois on the jersey

[NUdiehard]

Mast and Allick are combined 0-8 on 2-PT FGs even though Illinois mostly playing then 1v1. 

[hskr4life]

They have the advantage on the athlete side of things.  They’ll probably love the rim 2nd half.
