Nebraska (9-8) Vs. Penn St. 9-10 Game Thread

[Huskerpapa]

I'm so upset I cannot even see straight. 

[hhcscott]

Enough with the name calling.

[Norm Peterson]

So, we covered, right?

Covered our faces with our own excrement.

Ohio State now means nothing, as I said in the Report Card after.

Truly pathetic. Doesn't matter who the coach or players or opponent or even the conference is. It's the same old schtick. This is pathetic, year two of new era of year five. You played in front of 600 people with a team that scored 22 in the first half and was 0-5. No excuses. Pathetic.

[MichHusker]

Nebraska basketball reminds me of Detroit Lions football

[cozrulz]

Looks like the same Nebraska basketball  we've had for 15 years. Ok we are more athletic

 

This team isn't close to being as athletic as they let on.

I am trying really hard to find something in your post I can disagree with, give me a few more minutes because I agree 100% with it right now.

I expect some of this from his team. One step forward, one step back. They need to learn how to handle expectations, and in programs like ours, that takes time. That said, and I didn't see the game, but it sounded like coach didn't have his best outing.

 

anyhoo, back to trying to get wins however we can.

[Silverbacked1]

Wouldn't surprise me at all to come back Sunday with a win... Smh!

what Good would that do us?

I don't care who really gives up after this... If the team gives up I will be pissed

+10 It hurts but we put that one behind us and get ready for Minn.

Tough when we looked so bad.

Even in my rage I can disagree with OSU meaning nothing.

That was a darn pillow fight for the cellar.  What a joke. 

[nuled2dance]

No tcp they are people putting the cart before the horse.

As for quitting no way the team quits but it doesn't matter as losses are to many now. All you can ask for is that the team tries to find some consistent play from here on out. Should have won tonight but as I have said for 13+ years...maybe next year the ball will bounce our way

[royalfan]

Can't fault the effort of the kids.  When you have very little post play, points are tough to come by on the road sometimes.  At least we bought in on defense and tried hard. 

[Bugeaters1]

They definitely played down to their competition tonight.

Still waiting to see who said we are a tourney team?  Or were you just making stuff up?

so what if other people are going overboard? it's not a reason to get *angry* with them, for crying out loud. You make it sound like they hit you with their cars or something.

 

There's always going to be people who constantly look for reasons to jump off the ledge, and others who think every win is a harbinger of impending championships. That's life as a fan. Control what you can control.

Ok I can agree with that I have found something.

[hhcdave]

I say OSU means nothing because as always, we didn't build on it.

 

And let's be real here. Beating OSU after they'd lost three in a row and were right for the plucking wasn't exactly earth shattering. Not too mention they struggled to beat a very mediocre Illinois team tonight at home.

 

If we finish 7-11 (which we could have if we won tonights game) that means something.

 

If we finish 5-13 (which is what we probably will with this loss) then that means very little as far as progress of the program to anyone casual (recruit or fan).

 

If you can't win this game, you also aren't going to win at Northwestern. We can't split with NW and PSU and do any better than 5-13, IMO.

 

That's why OSU means near nothing at this point.

It would make me happy.

[brfrad]

I want to know the reason Tai sat the bench for the final 11 minutes.

[royalfan]

It is so frustrating.  I didn't think we would win going in, but when Travis was out it became very winnable, and then when they played as bad as they can play on offense and we still cannot get the win it is a tough one.

Burn the black jerseys now

I actually liked the Black jersey's.  I hope they wear them again as they looked awesome and were not the reason we lost.

At least it gave us something to look at while the game was going on.
