Rutgers came to play.  We did not. That’s my assessment. When your top two players go 7-27 it’s not going to be good.

Markowski 4 for 14 with 7 or 8 of the 10 misses having been really good looks.  Is it time to move away from the lob in passes to her?  I mean the last few games (at least) her conversion percentage is so low that her shots are almost like turnovers.  time after time after time after time the ball lingers on the rim and falls out.  Just one of the misses by either her or Jazz and the Huskers would probably have escaped. But hard to beat a team shooting 60% overall and nearly 50% on 3s

The game was a nightmare.   Credit to Rutgers for playing the game they did.

We didn't show up.  At least we cut down on the turnovers. But lord, the missed bunnies!  Plus our intensity was missing in action.  We turned it on towards the end, but toò little too late.  

Three opportunities to win it at the end...andddd no.

This team’s inconsistency has been the biggest problem in my opinion. You never know who is showing up. Any word on Darian White’s injury? Did anyone see what happened? 

 

Agree...... Been saying that quite a while.  And we didn't show up today. Hope they got this ugly stuff out of their system.

 

34% shooting as a team.  Less than that at the 3's   Will not win  many games that way. We were off track many many ways.

 

Too bad too....we need to win all the supposed *winnable* games.

It happened when she went for a layup that missed. After that there were to many bodies in the way.  I would assume that she turned an ankle. Also right towards that end Nissley came up limping, but it look like she will be okay, as she finished the game.

Again I leave this on the coaching.  Team has been inconsistent all 8 years of Amy. We will never be in the upper half... go from a top 25 team to a top 300 team from game to game is crazy.... 

 

I know AM has been missing some bunnies of late but without her we would maybe have 5 wins so I will stick by her!! 

 

I am just going to keep sitting over here buying season tickets waiting for the day for a coaching change..

A Hallmark of Amy Williams' Teams has been "Grit; No Quit" for as long as she has been here.  She has never had the most talented, or athletic, Teams, but what they have lacked they have made up in Determination.  However, I think the Talent Level may be starting to change.

 

I don't think there is much chance of a coaching change next year, or the next couple of years, with the incoming talent, including coach Amy's daughter.   Amy has had some success tapping the portal before, bringing in Shelley, Bella, but unhappily a couple of duds too.

But that doesn't mean that coaching Can't, or Shouldn't, step it up to take better advantage of the talent.

Right now I think we are a middle of the pack Big Ten Team, capable of beating any other B1G team (well maybe not Iowa). But, unless we upgrade our talent level; and ability to 'Coach 'em Up, I'm afraid we may be relegated to the bottom third of the B1G in the future after additions from the old Pac-12 conference.

No, also don't see any coaching change.  Alberts said a couple of days ago, he's happy if we get just into WNIT.... let alone NCAAs (he was talking about both men's and women's BBall.

So what you see is what you get. And we do have really nice games at times. Just not every time out the gate.

 

KarlHess agree with what he said about that we'd be like without AM. Think about how the post will be after next year. We'll lose the top rebounder in the B!G, and the top scorer on the team. And will lose some seniors this year. Need to recruit and teach our young ones in most haste.

I don't think we can beat Iowa, Indiana or Ohio St this year

Final Stats (PDF)

  • Nebraska rallied from a 13-point fourth-quarter deficit to cut the lead to one with multiple shots to win, but the Huskers were unable to complete the comeback in a 71-70 women's basketball loss to Rutgers on Saturday afternoon.
  •  
  • For the game, Rutgers hit a blistering 59.6 percent (28-47) of its shots, including 7-of-15 threes (.467), while going 8-for-12 at the free throw line. The Scarlet Knights also won the rebounding battle, 36-30, against the Big Ten's best rebounding team.
  •  
  • However, Nebraska's rebounding woes were primarily attributed to Rutgers' hot shooting and turnovers by the Scarlet Knights. The Huskers forced 23 turnovers and turned those mistakes into 25 points. Rutgers missed just 19 shots on the afternoon, while Nebraska missed 45, as the Huskers attempted 21 more field goals and eight more free throws than the Scarlet Knights.
