I’ve never seen a team struggle to shoot consistently at home like us.

Maybe it's the ball.

And there is a Morgan foul in like 30 seconds.

Shooters we have.  Makers….eh.

[Bugeaters1]

The cowards didn't go to the Lincoln zoo.

Uhlis doing his Dwayne Wade Impression…!

Easy to crap on the offense but the defense has been pretty stingy all three games outside of small spurts

And will be much needed if we shoot like this the whole year.

[hskr4life]

We’re now a sizzling 10-47 from deep for the year.

[Bugeaters1]

On the bright side, only 2 turnovers so far.

Ya jinxed it.

Hoiberg and Jacobson on the floor, good things happen.

[hhcscott]

That was an entertaining three possessions of Def. To Off.

[Bugeaters1]

KP is losing it on Cale.

This resembles what basketball is supposed to look like.  Always have to guard against drawing far reaching conclusions on such a small sample size.

 

And, Cale Jacobson looks like a Sam Hoiberg clone.  Doing all the dirty work.  Can't have enough of those guys.  Fun to watch.

[Vinny]

Just when you think the rotation is about to shrink, Cale Jacobsen does this.

[Cazzie22]

Trying to figure how at half we have 45 points. Must be free throws and some transition baskets.  Berke at the five is not too bad for the lineup. It will be nice if we get Bryce and Juwan both on in the same game.  Nice minutes from Jacobsen.

Minnesota down 27-30 to North Texas with 15 to go in the 2nd.  

[Bugeaters1]

Gotta love the rim. And I still say this can't shoot.

[millerhusker]

Berke has made some incredible passes that unfortunately didn't end up being assists

[Cazzie22]

Shouldn’t complain about a 26 point win.  So I won’t!

Morgan get hurt tonight? Felt like he wasn’t in at all in the second half? 

[MitchMcGaryMunchies]

Biggest difference I see in our win versus C Word's from a few days ago was the defensive intensity of our guards and limiting our turnovers.

 

Steals:  we stole the ball from FDU 10 times, CU only generated 2 steals. FDU stole the ball from us 6 times versus 9 times against CU.

Turnovers:  We turned the ball over 8 times and forced 17 turnovers. CU turned the ball over 14 times and forced 14 turnovers.

 

That said, we gotta shoot the ball better from outside. Still averaging in the mid-20% for the season.
