whats the score?

83-61. It's over.

[burgundy95]

Shavon sore but not hurt according to miles

[burgundy95]

Well the first one is in the books (not really). Glad we are under way and looking forward to this season. "Can't wait!" GBR

[a0t0w0]

a0t0w0's first in game thread  post game analysis-

 

1) First half was embarrassing.  I totes did not like it

2) Second half was better.  I think.  I spaced off for a large section. 

3) Tai has a better shot

4) Shavon shouldn't let other guys land on his knee

5) Terran still loves to try for the dagger shot...even if it's 7 minutes into the first half and we're down by 10

6) Where was Walt?

7) I called Smith John Wall.  tehehe.  I have no real knowledge of the game of basketball.  Nut feeling says he'll play some.

8) Jury is out on Fuller

9)  Hammond SERIOUSLY looks like JBD with most camera angles

10)  How many turnovers can we have in a first half?  I would hope it can't get worse than this game

11)  Hapster did HORRIBLE on the play by play.  I'm sorry, but it's true.  Snow did pretty well on the color except he called shavon "Shaveels" at one point, which I kind of liked in a weird way

 

Parting notes-

 

It's SMSU.  It shouldn't have been a tight game at any point.

Also have to be added that was the worst officiating crew I have ever seen. I know it didn't count but they called or didn't call the worst game ever. Really lucky somebody didn't get hurt worse than Shavon.

These games are also hard on the better team. SWMST, was all in and really fired up, we looked like we had scrimmaged for about 2 hours before the game. I'm not worried, even if we won't have won, but it would have been tough to se it on ESPN.

But didn't Syracuse loose to the cross town NAIA team to start the year they won the National Championship?

the box score looks pretty solid outside of petteway and pitchfords 3-18 shooting.

[hhcmatt]

Petteway - Shot 50% on dunks....that sort of night.

Shields - Easily has 30 if one of those And 1 shots falls tonight.  Look real solid inside and out.

Benny - Love the aggressive look he had on offense. Is he going to keep driving the lane when we start playing teams with real height?  His defense helped to start to chip away at the deficit as he stole the ball twice in a row from their PG

Tai - Miles said after the game something I was thinking while watching him 

 

 

Rivers - Dude can knock down 17 footers and picking up where he left off in dirty work

Fuller - Really didn't get going. Miles remarked he's not the same guy at the moment he was before he busted his beak.

Pitch - Shot wasn't there tonight. He brought the "pump fake that goes no where" with him from last year.  You're 6'11"...you don't need to get more open to shoot a three!

Moses - Didn't really get in a rhythm...only played 8 minutes.  Called for a foul for being too big.

T. Smith - Looked real smooth on offense.  Looked real lost on defense. There are going to be growing pains but there is real upside here.

Hammond - Yikes on his free throw attempt.

Menke - Looked comfortable out there instead of looking like the guy who only plays at the end of games.

Kye - Nice cut on a nice pass from Smith

 

We didn't play a great game but figured out how to score 83 with Terran struggling...really hope that Tai is that 3rd/4th scoring punch along with Pitch

We had more assists tonight (15) than we did in our first two regular season games last year (14)

 

Looked a little rough but that sort of effort would be good enough to win our first two games. We'll need to be sharper than this before we travel to Rhode Island.

So these people are at the game...

Really?  Please.  Tell that guy he can kiss my fat white ass.

That guy, hell there were probably 30 of them wearing that shirt.

[PimpMario]

I also thought Tai looked like a deer in the headlights on defense. He can't gaurd at the top of the key.

How do we expunge the bank of these twits?

Meanwhile, I just stumbled across this little gem. It may just have been the tweet of the night:

Fake Jean Peck.  That's awesome.

Okay I heard this little rumor today so take it for what it's worth, but supposedly those shirts were made by Craydon fans in Omaha who then put a party bus together to come down from Omaha and root against the Huskers. The guy who told me this may be completely full of crap but the shirts didn't make sense that they would be made by SW Minn fans. Anyway does this show us how desperate they are to stay relevant this year when they're clearly going to suck, or are they just that big of d-bags? I guess it could be both.

If that rumor is true, then I pity them for having nothing better to do...other than to come to Lincoln and see the best basketball team in the State this year and for years to come.

[Nighthawk]

Totally off topic...but wondering...did anyone try any of the new food they are selling at the arena? I looked a bit for it but just saw the standard fare at the concessions. Is it only available to those sitting in the high rent district?

[uneblinstu]

Well, SWMN's star player (and the one that almost killed Shields) is from Omaha and went to Prep. It's not random that there are fans of the school from Omaha.

Take it for what it's worth, but I also heard a rumor that Creighton fans tend to feel underprivileged in the Midwest market and overstate their accomplishments in order to feel relevant.

 

I can't remember, but I think I heard that from a guy wearing blue under his Husker shirt sometime during the Fall on a Saturday.
