Nebraska at #9 Michigan State

[GoBigRed]

Alright, here we go.

 

Michigan State, 2nd in the BIG.

Nebraska, 6th in the BIG.

 

Everyone is expecting us to lose. But a win....would be....huge

[MichHusker]

A loss doesn't really hurt us too much. A win puts us on the bubble

[HuskerFever]

I've got 2 words for you...

 

Why not?

[hskr4life]

A loss doesn't kill us... A win does us a lot of good

I've got 2 words for you...

 

Why not?

 

3 words...

 

We will win.

[MichHusker]

Appling out. Dawson out. Who knows what could happen

[tcp]

let's let the euphoria pass a bit--like maybe in an hour or two--before we pick up the crack pipe.

this is a true freebie. nothing to lose. but a terrible matchup for us, even with their injuries.

[GoBigRed]

For those who think we have no chance:

 

Michigan State in conference home games:

 

W by 15 (Penn State)

L by 5 (Michigan)

W by 5 (Indiana)

W in OT (Minnesota)

W in OT (Ohio State)

 

Nothing to be scared of IMO. Let's go play ball.

[HuskerFever]

A loss doesn't kill us... A win does us a lot of good

 

Exactly the opposite situation we were in against Illinois tonight.

Yes and it's nice to see Nebrasketball finally not choke in that "must-win" winnable home game. Unfortunately (or fortunately?) if we want to dream big, every home game from here on out is a must-win.

This is the epitome of the "nothing to lose and everything to gain" game.

Pretty much. Hope the guys go out and have fun on Saturday. Play with the same intensity they did tonight and good things will happen.

Not too much fun on Saturday, though, since the game is Sunday.

Anybody planning a road trip?

You don't like the Deverell Biggs approach to Basketball Preparation 101?

Not gonna happen.  I just want to see us take a step up.  Lets battle these guys.  And if they happen to play bad lets stun em.

Yea. I am taking the 2 hour car ride   Knowing that I am 0-2 at Nebraska basketball games (B1G tourney vs OSU, last week @ Mich) I was hesitant to go, but my girlfriend got the tickets so I cannot waste that kind of oppourtunity. Hopefully I am not bad luck! GBR!!!!

[49r]

Give 'em hell MichHusker!!!

[MichHusker]

I'll get rowdy and take a few Spartan fans down on my way in

[49r]

We need to give them payback for football.  This is the perfect opportunity.

[MichHusker]

Hopefully I will see more Husker fans at the MSU game than I did at the Michigan game (1). Also, if MSU fans are gonna pack the stands like Michigan did for us, the place will be half full at best.

[Nighthawk]

I'm just sorry I missed the game. Got hit by the bronchitis train the other day and I'm still waiting for the 100+ fever to break.

[Huskerpapa]

I will be shocked if we win this game...I can hope, but man, it will be an uphill battle.  I want us to play well, then whatever happens will happen.

[GoBigRed]

Even if we lose, 2-1 in our next 3 games would have us at 7-7. If you look at other teams' schedules, there's a decent chance we could be t-5th with Wisconsin with 4 games left. Can you feel it?

Got your back, bro.  I'll be posting on the game thread, Sunday.
