I couldn't make up my mind on which one to post tonight so I went whit both.

I hope that the Huskers can keep the game within 10 tonight.

I'd like to embed Sam Ponder.

HB, you're finally coming along, so to speak....

[cipsucks]

I think with the Bud Crawford meeting, a Simon and Garfunkle song would be appropriate.....

cip had the same problem in the last game thread (I think it was the last one, maybe a couple games or so), and I posted instructions on how to fix it.  You need to remove the hyperlink by placing the cursor at the end of the youtube link and click the little icon above that looks like a breaking chain link (to the left of the img embed icon).

 

Also, you can only embed two youtube videos per post.

It's Valentine's day tonight.

There are a few questions to be answered tonight.

Like to see him go for fifftee tonight, I think we will know what is going to happen early in this game. We may not win this game before the under 16 time out, but we might have lost it.

The boss gave me the night off again, so I've had some time to do a little research.  On February 10th, 1973 we beat KU in Lawrence 59-46.  Feb 10, 1999 we beat 24th ranked KU 64-59 in Lawrence. 

 

Any chance we can move tonight's game to Allen Fieldhouse?

For tonight's game in honor of the Red Zone's whiteout I wanted to post a video from Pete Townshend's album "White City: A Novel".  One of my all time favorite albums believe it or not.  The obvious choice would be the 8th track "White City Fighting", but it's not the best song for a game thread.  So I chose the first track "Give Blood" instead.  Yeah, it's a cheesy little song about giving blood and being charitable in general with lines like, "Give blood, but you may find that blood is not enough".

 

But ignoring the message, I feel like the lyrics pretty accurately reflect what's gonna need to happen for the 'Skers to pull out a win tonight.  They're going to have to give everything they have (blood), and that still may not be enough.  So, without further ado, ladies and gentlemen...Pete Townshend!

They just announced Brian Williams has been suspended 6 months without pay for misremembering stories.  The final straw was all the Notre Dame gear he saw in a certain basement....

For some reason this tweet didn't show up. It said that it was 70 minutes before tip, and that security was not telling the student to calm down.

Kent thinks its up to the Huskers to get the crowd into the game.  I disagree.  I think the crowd could work wonders.

A failure of our educational system to teach proper usage of the English language. 

 

Well there was a tweet that I posted. and I see that it has been removed off of twitter, So I don't know what happened to it. But it shows up when I go to the edit post.

Can the crowd hit 3 pointers?

 

And how will they all fit on the court?  I think that might be against the rules.  We'd better check....

Remember this moment when, after the game, the fans rush the court.  They'll all fit.
