Looks like the home favorite streak will continue unless some late money comes in on UCLA.

 

I am seeing -1.5 to -2.5 in favor of the Skers and the total has taken a nice little dip to 132.5. 

Yeah, that total looked high to me - kind of surprised to see the line swing that much, though - NU -2.5 is pretty much everywhere now. I even saw an NU -3 in the last few minutes. Hope the late money is on point.

Looks like Dailey is questionable today.

If you’re at the game, have fun for all of us! Be loud! Make Cronin wine and complain! And will the boys to another W! It’s going to be a battle! GBR!!!! 

[Huskerpapa]

Any truth to the rumor that McDermott will be in the house today.  He wants to be reminded of how great depth, defense and basketball is played...

Okay I know it is just catch and shoot. No defender on you or crowd screaming or being tired but GG  just went 23-25 from three with 17 of them in a row. Also only 2 hit iron. The two he missed hit back iron. So. I know now that he can make them and when coaches say he makes them in practice I can say yes he probably does. I agree with some on here that he is going to come in a game and explode and help us win one.

Officials:

Paul Szelc, Randy Richardson, D.J. Carstensen

Since this on over the air TV and a Saturday afternoon game, I best be seeing some Phillips66 commercials today.

It's just too early in the year to be watching a Phillips 66 game from a Fonner Park booth with a mini-TV.

I remember those TVs! God that was excellent.

Anyone notice Fox is using John Tesh’s NBA song for their college basketball coverage? It’s so strange to hear it with college basketball.

It’s real good basketball music 

[hskr4life]

Did you notice the Fox studio announces basically mentioning us as an after thought? LOL

 

Talked about UCLA and their D and stuff and then right before they broke basically said "Oh yeah, Nebraska plays good D too"

[MJW82]

They need to get Bahe a second suit to wear to these games 

[HuskerFever]

I never thought this day would come. Time to get to business.

[hskr4life]

Letting them play early. Our O looks rough against a strong D.

[hhcscott]

I hate this full-court mugging that Cronin runs. Officials forced to choose between calling actual fouls on every possession or letting them get away with felony assault 

[hhcscott]

Burke with the kind of pick that will BREAK the press.

[cozrulz]

Hopefully Essegian is ready to hit some threes.

[millerhusker]

Meah was 30+ feet behind Bilodeau running the court. Gonna need a smaller, quicker lineup in this one. 

 

[CanadianHusker]

Our favourite Nick Bahe: (Sees CE going to the scorer’s table) You know what the Huskers really need to do is bring on CE to space the floor. (CE siting at scorer’s table)

Play by play: That’s just what the Huskers are going to do.

NB: (Thinks to himself…I’m a frickin’ genius!)

Dear lord Jesus-- thank you for keeping BW's knee intact.

[Bugeaters1]

Sounds like the crowd is lit

[hskr4life]

It may seem ugly.... but this is how UCLA wants to play.

[Silverbacked1]

We are in this game. Crowd is here to be here. They aren’t really all that good. We just need to amake a few more shoots and then we can really get in their heads
