Yeah...this will be a very tough test today.  Gotta be at our collective best.

This one might sting a bit 

This is likely how Iowa VB fans feel before their team plays Nebraska

I hope not, but i fear that BP .... (others too, but they have not known as much HS success) .... is about to experience something entirely foreign to her - being pretty much out of the game early in the 2nd quarter and then just watching it get worse and worse all around her.  If I recall it right, she was offered by UCLA.

NEBRASKA at UCLA Dec. 29 | 5 p.m. ET | B1G+ OUT #22 Natalie Potts (season) QUESTIONABLE None

UCLA is big, quick and deep.  The top teams in WBB are still a big cut above the rest.  We will need to take care of the ball and shoot very well to make it a contest.  This is the toughest road swing in the conference.

[longtimefan]

Come on girls you gotta make your free throws to have any chance at all

[Bugeaters1]

0 is a trash talking bitch.

[Cazzie22]

Doing great to be within 4.  We need our two big girls to get through the 2nd quarter without fouling.  Might be some of our best defensive intensity.  They are just so big and deep.

[All About the Corn]

We need to keep it close in the first half. Nice to be up by one at this point. 

[Bugeaters1]

FLOP

They said she transferred from Texas A&M, whom NU beat in first round last year.  She said this was a 'revenge' game.  What a imbecilic thug.

Whistle happy refs

Man, they are protecting Betts...no calls on her walking (and fouls), and everything even near her is a foul on us.

 

We have got to move on offense.

Nissley should never dribble. 

[NUtball]

Well, they're battling.  Just out-sized and out-quicked (and out-stooged).  Need to protect the ball and hopefully make a bunch of 3's.

[Cazzie22]

We need someone to beat their pressure off the dribble.  Allison has gotten into the lane and should play more.   We are hanging in by playing decent defense but too many sloppy turnovers under pressure.  Logan is having a tough time and guarding Betts is a problem.  We have to rebound much better.  If we can prevent another 10-0 run we might be able to hang in there.

[All About the Corn]

Only down by 7 and it could have been worse had then not missed all those threes.

[Bugeaters1]

Another team that is amazed that they fouled.

[redsteve]

Our own turnovers are really hurting us

[Bugeaters1]

Man they blow the whistles quick for jump balls.

[All About the Corn]

UCLA is very deep.

[Bugeaters1]

What isn't a foul in this game?
