Two-minute Meah, as I refer to him now.

As strange as it may sound I wasn't frustrated with how things were going in 1st half even though UW couldn't miss a 3. We couldn't get closer than 10 but they couldn't expand lead to more than 13 it seemed. And the last 4-5 minutes they started to resemble more of who they are. And speaking of 3's I did some research and found that Indiana St. went 12-12 from 3 pt range in February of 2012 and appears to be only time a division 1 team has shot 100% from 3. Troy attempted 74 3's in December of 1994 for most attempts. They also made a record 28 and are tied with Wyoming who made 28 in November of 2021 against Nebraska's very own Hastings College.

Juwan came out very aggressive in 2nd half after being a limited due to picking up 2 1st half fouls. I thought he keyed the 12-2 run to open the 2nd.

Noticed that Brice used a ball fake very effectively to get open shots/drives a few times. 

Liked that Sam looked to score when he drove rather than looking to pass. Helped that it stayed 1 on 1 as help D never

showed.  

Was anyone else thinking after not getting any points after UW flagrant that the lead could slip away? 

Really enjoyed the big lead late and went to sleep happy.

 

 

I felt the same way, I knew that eventually UW wasn't going to be perfect from the land of plenty. And I figured that Fred would light 'em up at halftime and the team would respond accordingly to open the 2nd half. Nebraska is a much better unit than the Huskies, and the 2nd half was a master class on how to exploit the weaknesses of UW this season. UW may have won the early battles in this ballgame, but it was the Huskers who won the war. GBR
