to bad the PBP guys aren't at the game.

That's better Nick.

Whatever Miles' halftime adjustments were it seems to be working. Albeit, it helps that Taylor is seeing minimal minutes.

[brfrad]

TV Ted making the call.

[HuskerFever]

White almost has as many points as Penn State.

[HuskerFever]

Have to give some props to Hammond tonight.

[hal9000]

Wow, how bout Jakey boy?

[HuskerFever]

We're 11 minutes into the 2nd half and Penn State only has 7 points to show for it.

[HuskerFever]

These refs keep taking points away from White!

[brfrad]

Thank goodness ball game wasn't closer, otherwise that moving screen was a bad call.

If there's one great thing about this year, it's that our young players and bench players have both seen a lot of game time minutes.

[brfrad]

These refs were calling NOTHING in the first half, and now we get touch fouls on Nebraska with 25 seconds left?

Really good second half! Way to go boys!

[brfrad]

Hammond and Jacobson 7-11 from the floor.  5-6 from the free throw line.  9 total rebounds (6 offensive).  19 points.  Get that and we will be in good shape. 

[brfrad]

Hammond and Jacobson also had 4 combined assists.

[hskr4life]

Man if White could just give us 20 a game... When (if) Shields comes back... Well you know the story!

Andrew had a good game... Great game!

We beat a team around in the second half that we should have. I know some here think all is lost in Husker Land this season, but let's be real... There is a chance for 3 wins here in the final 5 games... And we could certainly heat up in Indy. 17 wins gets us into NIT bubble convo.

Let's see what adjustments we try to make in the 2nd half. We have to figure out this zone they're throwing at us.

I think one key would be to keep White on the floor. It really hurt when he went to the bench in the first half.

Agreed. But we need more than just White to produce. If not, we lose this game.

 

 

Well...

We can all agree that 35 points is a lot

You nailed it with that comment. PSU actually outscored White in the 2nd half 23-20. Thank goodness some other guys produced but who knew they would have to produce so little!

Back home...man that was fun, especially watching Drew who was unconscious tonight.  Also it was good to see players like Jake, MJ and Nick step up their individual games.  Good job men!
