Nebraska (16-9) vs. Nortwestern (13-12) Game Thread

[GhostOfJoeMcCray]

Ty Berry has shot 14 threes. 14! And this game isn’t close to being over.

[HuskerBB]

Connor must be really sick yet - he has just looked awful both in his short first half appearance and again now.

If we miss the tournament this and the Iowa game will be why 

[MichHusker]

Haven't even gotten to double digit made field goals yet

Need to bench Brice.

And Gary.  And Connor.

A slop shot is far better than live ball turnovers.  It might go in.

what are the coaches doing?  Griffiths played fine in the 1st half.  Play him.  We get it to 13 and then this crap again.

Just remember that two of Northwestern's top 3 leading scorers are out for the season.

I struggle understanding our performance thus far.  This is an important game, yet we are playing like it doesn't matter.  

[hhcdave]

Connor can sit the rest of the game. He can’t defend. He can’t rebound. He turns it over. And now he’s not making threes. 

[roscoe]

Berry 2 away from season high.

Remember when our bench was one of our strengths earlier in the season?

Since that NCAA tournament win has been so elusive, I guess they've set their sights on the first CBI win.  What an absolute shit show.

Brice and Juwan will go down in history as two of the more puzzling players we’ve ever had. They can completely take over and win us games. They can also take random days off where it appears they have zero interest in doing the things they know they need to do.

I honestly had no idea Essegian was this bad on d. He makes keisei look like a lock down defender.

Why not the CBC (College Basketball Crown)?

They were showing replay of one of Berrys 3s and Martinelli hit Sam from behind a helluva lot harder than Ulis flagrant and GG foul. It's mostly about what they want to call. Wish races weren't canceled at Fonner at least I'd be losing money and drinking expensive beer and only getting updates which I'd no longer be interested.

[brfrad]

I know this is going to be undoable with the way we're playing.   If we just get this down to 8 at the under 8 timeout, we have a chance.

I know it looks bleak, but NW is leaving the door open.  Game isn't over.

It's Fonner park time? We had a guy at work that was a big into the horses . We would pick a daily double out of a deck of cards. We did win one time.

Maybe we can do it at the under 12 timeout.

[Huskerpapa]

Juwan!!!!

[Bugeaters1]

Since I quit watching the game the Huskers have it down to ten.
