Kent State Game Thread: Don't stop it now.....

Benny better be playing the WHOLE second half since he's not getting the minutes he needs. No other reason for sitting him

Did I hear the announcers correctly earlier during the game that Almeida was the 3rd heaviest guy in the NCAA?

No. They were talking about Sea World.

[cozrulz]

maybe we figured out 2 for 1?

[HuskerFever]

Three things:

1) Player of the game goes to Talley so far

2) Drive to the basket! We keep getting to the line, but for some reason, we also keep blasting unwarranted three-point shots.

3) Make Kent State work for their shots, they have not proved they can make free throws

[cipsucks]

Talley with 17 at the half. Wow.

[The_Vault]

TALLEYYYYYYY

Hey everyone, just got back from a wedding. Saw the last 4-5 mins, and nice way to fight back from being down, but my question is how did we get there?

Decent start. We made some 3-pointers. Gave up too many 3-pointers. We kept shooting 3-pointers and missed 'em. Went on a drought. Kent State is terrible from the freethrow line right now. We came back behind 5-ish in the last 5 minutes.

[HuskerFever]

2-9 from the 3-point line. I sure hope Miles has the players change up their strategy.

[hskr4life]

Sounds like we are driving well, and looks like on tv the last few minutes we drove well... hope we dont go away from that!

need to get ray involved in the scoring more. i think we need to get a good 8-10 pts from him per game.

otherwise, nice finish. need to hit those fts on the front end, that's hurt us.

let's get this win!

He has 2 fouls would most likely be the reason.

Any news on Shields if he's available tonight? I was kind of surprised not to see him in the 1st half.

Volleyball finished off Northwestern in four sets. Glad that the Huskers won, and glad that the 'Cats managed to extend it to four.

haha!! finally someone figured it out! all this time it was so simple...

[brfrad]

Sorry, I was watching football all day, and just turned over to watch basketball. That's not good news.

[brfrad]

Watching the game while listening to Kent makes me realize how different the games are compared to Kent announcing them. A KSU guy takes a FT shot and airballs it and he has no idea why they disallowed the shot.

[HuskerFever]

UUUUUUBBBBBBBBBBBBEEEEEEELLLLLLL!!!!!!!!

Nice tribute to coach Cip at halftime. Touching.

[cipsucks]

Gallegos---quit shooting the damn 3.

[Noah121]

It's 35-35 early in the second.

Kent State missed a three... but after the Huskers miss a shot, #3 blows by the Husker defense. 35-37.

Then a turnover for us, and a foul on defense. Come on, Huskers!

[HuskerFever]

Sloppy sloppy sloppy. This is starting to get out of hand.
