WHO ARE WE? (i like this )

[atskooc]

Damnit!

[jayschool]

Leslee Smith is a man — with bad knees, but still, a man.

Holy crap boys. what coulda been if Leslee had been healthy.

Does anybody think we might have been okay if we would have some body like Igloo?

[Red Don]

I like when my team makes baskets!

[HuskerFever]

We have been awful at going for rebounds. We could have gotten rebounds EASILY in the last 2 possessions. The ball went straight at our players (Benny and I missed the 2nd one), but their bodies were already turned to play defense.

[brfrad]

We have to know Illinois is going to have another run we'll need to withstand.

[atskooc]

Damnit...needed that finish!

[atskooc]

How the fuck is that a foul?

[Norm Peterson]

Wish Miles would coach Shields to make those layups.

[atskooc]

Shit

[brfrad]

I guess you have to be 7' not 5'9" to hammer people and get no foul called on you.

[atskooc]

I like Tarin Smith

[HuskerFever]

I'm surprised the announcers didn't say: "The freshman from Atlantic City... who doesn't have any ties to Nebraska."

Well, he does now.

[colhusker]

Need to check backboard for a crack after that shot by Abrahams

[atskooc]

Nice job using the glass there.

[atskooc]

I'm glad Rice is graduating.

[atskooc]

How can they call traveling on a guy after he no longer has the ball?

[colhusker]

How can they call traveling on a guy after he no longer has the ball?

He played it back in his mind?  No clue really

[ajb5856]

I'm not real pleased with the fact that the official waited until after rivers traveled and then was FOULED before he decided to blow the whistle and actually call the travel.

I am pleased that we've hit the 40 mark with over 11 minutes to play.

[NUtball]

Must be the NEBRASKA on his jersey.

[brfrad]

This announcer sucks.  "It should be a double dribble."  (Thinking to himself: "Crap, I just made the refs look bad")  "The reason it wasn't a double dribble is because Nebraska knocked it away."  Petteway boxes out for a rebound, and the Illinois grabs Petteway's jersey and tosses him aside.  "Petteway had a nice box out, but didn't go get the ball"  That's because he got FOULED!!

[Red Don]

I like it when Kent Pavelka yells "GOT IT!"

[atskooc]

I like Shields from the elbow.

[ajb5856]

Screw Illinois, these refs, and these announcers. Let's just win this.
