Cincinnati (6-1) vs. Nebraska (5-3) Game Thread

[brfrad]

It's kind of surprising we are only ahead 4.  It feels like Rivers and Pitchford have played very well so far.  Pitchford has seemed more physical down low, and boxed out well tonight.  Ditto for Rivers.  However, when Terran and Shavon have scored only 13 points combined with 9 turnovers, I can then understand.

[Mr. Red]

We are playing ok.... Except for the turnovers

[extremehoops]

Im sorry but Tai Webster gets beats on defense alot

[Mr. Red]

RIVUUUUUUURS

Walter Pitchford playing with fire like I've never seen before

If Pitchford brought this effort every game, this team would be much better.  He's played great defense inside, has boxed out like a beast, and went to the ball on rebounds.  9 points and 8 boards with 11 minutes left.

 

WTF is the Cincinnati coach complaining about.  His team reaches and grabs more than Ohio State did with Craft on the team.  It must suck when the other team is allowed to do that too.

[brfrad]

How does Cronin not get t'd up!!!!!

[extremehoops]

Fatigue is setting in.

[Bugeaters1]

Who's home court is this game being played on?

[brfrad]

I guess at least they're starting to call the reach ins.

[brfrad]

Wow, Cincinnati can travel!!!!!!

[FredsSlacks]

Fatigue is setting in.

[Bugeaters1]

Ellis is chirping WTF

Bearcats outscoring Huskers bench 17-0

 

Its early in the season but you need to get your bench earning confindence.

 

Giving Fuller 3-5 minutes couldnt hurt this team the way we are playing and turning the ball over, maybe he drops 1 or 2 three pointers

[Hoopskers]

Why do we waste so much time getting the ball inbounds?? Just get the ball in and not let them set up their press.

[Mr. Red]

My wife is crying laughing at Cronins mannerisms on the bench. The man is a one man emotional roller coaster

[brfrad]

BTW, rewarding the defensive player for being off balance on Shields is getting ridiculous.

[Mr. Red]

Ugly game so far

37-34 with 6 min left for you guys out there unable to follow

[hal9000]

Sooo no Runzas?

[huskerbaseball13]

20 turnovers....wow. We look like a high school team trying to break a press

[Bugeaters1]

Sooo no Runzas?

Not unless the Huskers score a lot in 4 minutes

[extremehoops]

Nebraksa 20 Cin 12  turnovers

Nebraska 2   Cin 7 assists

 

We dont share the ball

 

Win or lose we need to work more on team basketball for the long run or it will look like this all year

[hskr4life]

These refs are bad... And that's putting it lightly.
