Nebraska (21-9) vs. Michigan (8-22) Game Thread

[Bugeaters1]

Motown is the theme for this game.

Every Husker Basketball fan has lived this song since the first day they became a Husker Basketball fan.  Doesn't matter if it's several years or several decades.  GBR!

And then it happened....

Fun fact: Wild wolverines haven't been spotted in the state of Michigan for decades. However, there's been wolverines spotted in Oregon. Probably why they joined the Big Ten, so they can show them what a real wolverine looks like.

Get ready!  Japanese subtitles mean Keisei has so many huge games ahead of him THIS season!

Not Motown but appropriate to our NCAA record.

I can't resist doing this for Detwah....

This one's for the B!G officiating crews.  

 

 

Just like the B!G officials, he isn't actually blind...

 

 

[cipsucks]

Like so many others, gone too soon.

 

 

[No Place Like the Vault]

Huskers open as 6 point favorites 

[cipsucks]

The Huskers are going for the trifecta.  Last year, they beat Iowa on the road, last regular season game 81-77.  The year before, they beat Wisconsin 74-73.  Michigan's up next.  GBR!

 

Three years in a row, Huskers on the road to end the regular season.  Thanks, B!G.

I almost burned down my house tonight - good or bad omen for tomorrow?

Like 1 alarm fire? Or, I grabbed a fire extinguisher and put it out fire?

Yes. I’d say that’s good.

Initial instinct is that those are two completely unrelated events.

 

But after thinking about it more deeply... You almost burned down your house. Michigan football plays at the Big House. The Big House is located right next to the Crisler Center. The Michigan basketball team is a dumpster fire. So they were already on fire.

 

So either your metaphor for burning down the house was us further burning down the Michigan basketball program. Or you were just listening to a Talking Heads song while cooking tonight.

Yes, this would be the first time we would have won at the Crisler Center.

[TourneyBound]

Road game plus Early tip time and daylight savings has me a bit concerned with this one…. But then again I’m always worried.. lol

[Nighthawk]

Sooo...this has got to be rare having both Husker BBall teams playing at the same time with major implications for both teams.  Good luck to both the Men and the Women. 

[HuskerFever]

Just wanted to put a big shout out in this thread for the women's team. They're playing in the Big Ten championship game at the same time this game is going on.

 

Split screen, two TVs, radio and TV. Whatever your solution, they're leading the way. Hoping our men's team can make a run like that this upcoming week.
