AND ONE!

[Huskerpapa]

Yes!

[49r]

The difference in this game is Ray's absence.  He should easily have 9.

good news front: two brutal road games in a few days, and our guys came to play hard for both, so that's a plus. and hey, we're under 10! so it's not all bad.

[Huskerpapa]

SOB...You have to hit the free throws.

[Huskerpapa]

Come on...composure...come on.

WHAAAAT

[tcp]

wow, file this under "ho lee fuk"

[Huskerpapa]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deverell is singlehandedly carrying this team back into this game.  On his back.

[HuskerFever]

A little late to start a game...

[hal9000]

Ho boy.

[nuled2dance]

Well they didnt quit just crazy to see where they'd be if ray showed up. Lot of missed layups. They didnt quit which is good to see

[Huskerpapa]

Rosenthal tweets that their arena had a four minute fire alarm just like us.

[Huskerpapa]

NO...not a foul with one second.

I turned the game off. Has Iowa just gone cold? Did we start locking down?

[tcp]

good lord. the biggs giveth, the biggs taketh away. that's just awareness.

[hal9000]

Well, there ya go....

[Huskerpapa]

Gotta have composure.  Man.

[tcp]

and as hard as they worked getting back, they're back to doing al the things that got 'em buried in the first place. that's experience. we'll hopefully learn. like he UMass game right now.

[Huskerpapa]

Wrong person with a shot at that moment.  Don't blame Tai, just the wrong person shooting at that moment.

[49r]

Just a little to little, too late.  But dammit, I'm proud of these guys.  Except for Ray.  His performance was way below what he is capable of.

[a0t0w0]

Two players with double doubles for NU? Unheard of.

[Huskerpapa]

Seriously, could Petteway and Biggs do anything more than they did that last five minutes.  That is playing for pride!

Biggs woke up and put in a Herculean effort in the last 6 minutes or so.
