46 points.. definitely the refs fault. 

Two things can be true at once. It’s not a one or the other. Just because we’re awful on the offensive end, doesn’t mean that we got a good whistle.

Defense showed up on both sides. Michigan was blowing up our stuff all game and doubling Brice. Connor making some shots wouldn't helped a lot. I've mentioned I'm not a fan of his before, but he's the only shooter they have. He has to show up from deep.

It didn't help.

A lot was let go both ways.

Williams needed to take that straight to the hoop.  Make them defend a hard drive with a 1 point lead.

 

Maybe.  There were already two 7-footers set inside.  Tough to shoot over.  We probably got as good of look as anything else.  If anything I would have liked to see a timeout and set something up for Williams off a screen.

Griffiths would've helped space the floor tonight. Hit a few shots and give Williams some room to drive. Ulis should never see the floor again. NU needs shooting and rebounding. Griffiths can provide both. It's painfully obvious.

What is the point total where a 3pt game turns into the fault of the defense instead of the offense?

I would agree, but at this point there's a reason he's not playing. I wouldn't bank on that changing with 3 regular season games left

Nebraska had 10-12 chances to win that game, and basically couldn't make simple plays or were intimidated at the rim & missed easy shots (then bricked the FTs, a la Morgan). If it weren't for Brice & Sam being efficient, the shooting percentage of the rest of the roster was Jr. High level. Still, a few more opportunities to get some dubs. Tonight was a missed big-time opportunity, however.
