Nebraska (16-6) vs. Illinois (16-5) Game Thread

[Dead Dog Alley]

I fucking know this fucking shit is fucking rigged so the fucking question is why the fuck do I fucking bother to fucking watch.

 

Fucking sorry for the fucking profanity, if you are fucking offended then **** off.

[hskr4life]

On that replay… that was a foul on Mast.

[Huskerpapa]

No complaints other than te refereeing.   Lots of grit and heart.  This should help, not hurt our resume.

[Silverbacked1]

Hey. Not to low, not to high

need this effort in Chicago later this week

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Good fight. Wish mast would’ve shot it

[HuskerFever]

This team is fantastic. Love the grit. Had every excuse to give up many times in this one.

[HuskerBB]

Well great effort - and this one should certainly not hurt us in the metrics or NCAA status

[B1G Red]

Nothing to hang their heads about. We will win a few road games down the stretch because of tonight.

[Vinny]

Damn.

proud of them. in a remotely fair game, they win. 

[Dead Dog Alley]

Fucking Robbie Fucking Hummell is a fucking piece of fucking shit.  And fuck Underpants

[HuskerBB]

I do have to say that Coleman Hawkins may now be my least favorite player in the Big 10.

[Dead Dog Alley]

Everyone who works for BTN is a fucking tool

can't let the game come down to the final possession or the refs will F you.

One foul in the first 15 minutes of the second half when they were holding, swatting, and bodying up on defense and going over the back and slapping on the offensive boards.  The F job started long before the end of the game.

I think it was the first half ref show that did us in. We should've had a significantly bigger lead on them going into the half. turned out to be the difference in the game. I even posted it at the time.

There was more contact on Mast than when Sam stripped the guy in the corner.

Like Husker Papa said after the T.. we never got a call the rest of the night.  I really don’t like how some of the old guard of this league get away with such a high level of theatrics against officials without repercussions.  Never a second T, never told to get off the court or stay in their box.  Sigh

Hear we go again.  They get a T...now we are going to get ZERO calls.

Prediction of the year or at least the game.

I take solace in the fact that Trev is ripping someone asshole at the league office right now. What an absolute screw job by this conf. Illinois and Purdue (NW game) are worse teams in march because the top teams get absolutely babied night in and out.

This game came down to the final possession because of the refs

Yep, I don't know what game he watched. Maybe it was the same as the 3 blind mice.

[colhusker]

I would be willing to bet a weeks pay that IF we had taken the last shot of regulation the whistle would have been swallowed. Double the FT attempts for them in a physical game.  Just sad.

After Underwood got that early T, I knew the refs would swallow their whistles in their favor. It sucks, that's why it's so hard to win on the road. But, honestly, if NU could just make short shots around the rim, NU wins that one going away. At least the Huskers had the fortitude to make a late comeback on the road, down 10, to push this to OT, maybe next time the Big Red will come out victorious at NW. LFG
