I thought for sure Keisei was launching.   Then a beautiful no look to Mast.

OH, this is pretty.

[tcp]

mercy rule in effect? in any event, I don't  think michigan's taking a half time lead in this one

 

[HuskerFever]

Michigan right now:

Love to watch NU hoops play well - but is anyone else feeling a little pissed off as to why this type of energy & defense doesn’t happen on the road?

 

[tcp]

they might get 100 if michigan doesn't start playing some div 1 ball

[cipsucks]

well, so far so good.

The difference is we are making shots, and taking care of the ball.  We have much more pep in our step.  It shouldn't be that way.  If we ever figure this effort out, when we aren't making shots, we would be a great team.

[tcp]

well, that was obviously not sustainable, but it sure was fun listening to this team go nuclear

[tcp]

way to go josiah

Not at all.  They played well at Illinois, they beat K State, would have beaten Rutgers had Gary not been injured, and had a disappointing second half at Minnesota.

don't take the lead for granted boys...

Agreed - always nice to make shots. But could the effort on defense, the rebounding, etc. create easier shots to make? For this team (for most in my opinion), it starts with the effort on defense and on the boards.

Up 20 at half.  I'll take it.

[HuskerFever]

Well...it's a good thing we're a 2nd half team.

Mercy rule? Who needs a mercy rule. 

[Cazzie22]

We need to come out strong the 2nd half.  

[brfrad]

That last make by Michigan started by not stalling taking the ball out.  We unbounded it way too quickly.  This game probably doesn't make a difference,  but really got to learn that kind of things down the stretch.  Hoiberg was not happy at the time with them.

[cipsucks]

The way this team has played so far, is the way so many teams seeded 10-16 play in the Tournament. 

[cipsucks]

We won't be a 10-16 seeded team.  7 or 8.  Maybe 6...

[hal9000]

Okay, let's remember how to score again.
