WBB: Game #22 vs Minnesota

For you trivia buffs out there: This will mark the 10th time the Huskers have played on Super Bowl Sunday through out the years. They have a pretty good record to show for it also. They own a 7-2 record on Super Sunday with (4) of the games against Iowa St. This will be the 5th game at home to go along with 5 on the road. Last time we played on Super Sunday was 2 years ago at Colorado which we lost by the way. The first time was in 1993 at Iowa St.  

Huskers playing like a top 20 team today! Demolish the Gophers 80-56. The difference in the 4 game winning streak from before is playing a tough 2-3 zone defense and Rachel Theriot starting to play like a veteran player. Player of the game Teara' Laudermill. Sure wish we could get Purdue back now the way we're playing. Lindsey evidently hurt her calf and had to be taken out and escorted underneath the stands in the first half for treatment. Came back the second half with her calf wrapped in a bandage. Like the saying goes you can't stop her you can only hope to contain her!. Tough kid, returned to the court to standing ovation! If no one else I gave her one!  Good to see JHoop driving and scoring under the bucket.

5 players in double figures.

Jordan Hooper with 27 points and 7 boards.

Tee Laudermill 14 pts.

Lindsey Moore steady as always 12 points, 7 assists

Emily Cady 10 pts, 7 rbs 3 steals

Rachel Theriot 5-5 from the field 11 points 5 assists 7 boards.

It's at Northwestern Thursday now. A Wildcat team that went in to Iowa and knocked off Iowa this afternoon.

Nice win and a good performance.  Maybe the team is rounding into form.  A win at NW is crucial to keep in the B1G race. 

I had to listen on radio to today's game.  It's very difficult to listen to Matt's Play by Play since "color" man Jeff is always talking while the action is going on.  Sometimes, I wonder who is play-by-play.  Must be the Matt Davidson influence.

Wow...big game and a very, very nice win.

45% shooting from the field, 7 out of 22 from behind the arc. 15 out of 17 from the charity line for 88 %.

6,935 fans in the stands.

Rachel Theriot is the most improved player over the course of the season.  What a line she had today, as Row 6 stated:  5-5 from the field, 1-1 from the line for 11 points, 7 boards, 5 assists, 0 turnovers.  Outstanding; Row 6, she's my player of the game, although I agree T was big today, especially what she did in our zone defense.

I thought she got knocked for a loop, looked a bit groggywhen she got up.  And you forgot the elbow / arm to Cady at the beginning of the game she is tough as nails also.

I figure this is a "no," but is anyone on this board coming to Evanston?  Obviously, I'll be there in my half-and-half.

Nope Not Me. Wish I was going in March but my wife's boss will be in Vegas for the Nascar Car race so she has to work that week of the B1G Ten + 2 tournment

It's too bad those two freshmen with injuries sitting on the bench aren't healthy enough to get some playing time. It's some prime game time experience they're missing out on. Has anyone heard a time line with little Sadie Murren or what exactly is the problem with her ailing back? My understanding is Courtney Aitken is starting to work her way back into practice.

I talked to Courtney mother yesterday.  She suited up at Ohio St but developed some soreness so she was held out of yesterday's game.  Sadie who knows.  You know how backs injuries are.  As the case with Adri, sometimes you never come back.

I thought I seen her on the bench suited up and then yesterday she wasn't suited up, I thought maybe I was seeing things. Thnx FB for clearing that up.
