Nebraska (8-8) vs. Rutgers (6- 10) Game Thread

[Silverbacked1]

Wow is Andrew putting on a show.

I think that Rutgers might be the worse team I have seen us play this year. But they are missing some of their key players.

And I was going to say Nick free throw was kind of bad until that kid from Rutgers just shot that one

[Huskerpapa]

Nice half.  Not often do we go into half with a 20 point lead

[HuskerFever]

Lots of great things. Lots of ugly things.

[Bugeaters1]

Half way home

[Fullbacksympathy]

Don't settle.  Please blow this awful team out.  Also, Ed Morrow was solid--very active beyond 6pts, 2rb.  

[brfrad]

Seems like the light is turning on for Morrow the last couple games. 

 

The main thing with him is learning to stay on the court by not fouling.  Only got 5 minutes because he had 2 fouls.

Fuller and Hammond both seem to struggle at the line

10 offensive rebounds so far...impressive!

We need to keep playing solid defense, stay aggressive on the boards and find a way to win.

That's gonna happen when your opponent put a team on the floor where no one is taller than 6' 3". Vs. Rutgers, we look huge. Not sure I'd reecommend making a rebounding judgment off a performance vs. the Scarlet Knights.

[Huskerpapa]

Gotta take and make those open looks

[GATA4Miles]

The theme of some our recent losses has been taking our foot off the pedal after we get a lead... let's keep this out of reach boys.

Should not have to "find a way to win"  We need to go out and aggressively win this game.

[HuskerFever]

Keep it rollin' White!!

Ughhh

If you read my preview I called that we could exploit it...when is the last time we had 10 offensive rebounds in a half though?!?

[Huskerpapa]

Bad foul for Andrew...gotta move your feet dude.

Especially with the shot clock down to 3.

 

The only game I watched Rutgers play, was when they played Indiana.  How did Indiana keep this team within striking distance most of the game?

[Silverbacked1]

Ed is getting it. Also helps to play somebody with the same size as him. He can play the 4

Runzas at the 10 min mark

[Huskerpapa]

Wow...Rutgers is terrible, or we are great.

71-39 NU 9:12 2nd

Drew going beast mode today. Looks like Rutgers is giving up. Much needed W today. Should have another easy W on Tuesday.

This is a get right game for NU. Needed one of those. 

[atskooc]

Rutgers looks like they've quit.

 

I'm not complaining.
