That was a rough game, hope Berke is good to go tomorrow.

hskr4life · 2024-12-23T04:02:30Z

Ugly. Mucked up game.

Took Bryce out of it with physical ply not being called.

Favored by 6 metrics wise, won by 17.

Never reallllly in doubt.

Holiday hoops hangover. Looked sluggish both ways at times and it’s not surprising considering where we’re playing.

Apparently the Three Stooges were informed before tip-off that this was a football game or rugby match. These aggravated physical assault allowed type of games are not enjoyable to watch. I figured someone was going to get hurt - unfortunately, it was Berke with the non-contact injury.

6 assists on 26 makes, not good.

Defense was really good tonight.

A lot of pushing and grabbing allowed by Murray State.

Andrew and Connor came up huge.

Won by 17 despite Brice scoring only 9 points.

cozrulz · 2024-12-23T04:10:13Z

Seemed like a lot of guys just falling on the floor.

Huskerpapa · 2024-12-23T04:10:26Z

Brice did not get to the line, unbelievable!

Way too many turnovers.

Berke with an apparent ankle injury.

We played about twenty minutes of good basketball.

Good first half, especially on defense. 2nd half, below average, at best!

Yet we won by 17.

AuroranHusker · 2024-12-23T04:17:16Z

Andrew Morgan was huge. Connor Essegian was on fire, again. The refs were atrocious. That about sums it up. GBR

bigred4 · 2024-12-23T04:23:45Z

We get that ref crew vs Hawaii tomorrow...gonna be a long night

Im not so mad at this. One of those “stats don’t tell the whole story” type of scenarios.

There wasn’t a ton of hero ball. Some, but not enough to make me feel bad about our offense. When’s the last time we had that many post backdown buckets inside? It’s been a while. Combine all of those with our drives to the rack and the score being on the lower end, there weren’t going to be a ton of assists to be had.

Amy Bonner is refing the Hawaii Charlotte game. She is not a good ref.

Now you know it will be so ticky tack tomorrow that we’ll end up in major foul trouble for both teams.

Is that your Twitter or just a wild coincidence on the name?

basketballjones · 2024-12-23T04:45:37Z

Easy win against a bad team. We got bored.

At this point I’m going to need a written statement/explanation from Fred as to why Meah does any of the “perimeter stuff.” It’s coach malfeasance.

B-town hoopsfan · 2024-12-23T04:49:24Z

Really need worster to avoid early foul trouble tomorrow, he just makes the offense flow so much better especially when meah is in there.

Yes, Brice, Juwan, and Rollie all need to stay out of foul trouble, tbh. Those 3 are keys for this team being successful this season. Steadying forces.

Some of that is the defense that Murray St runs. Looks like Hawaii will be our next opponent and you'll they also have a row type of defense that depresses assist numbers

And that 1 time was a doozy against MSU.

Nice to see NU take it to Murray St. with a defensive blitz instead of the other way around vs MSU.

Box Score

AGHANSEN · 2024-12-23T14:29:25Z

Defense was phenomenal in the first half.

Way too many careless turnovers.

I really liked the game plan on offense.

Get the ball and drive to the hoop against the undersized Murray State guards.

Andrew Morgan keeps on getting better and better.
