      Nebraska Takes Down #24 Clemson on the Road

      Huskers show the resolve missing in KC

      image.png

       

       

    - My DVR didn't start right away so I missed the first couple of minutes of the game. I came in right in the middle of the review. Kinda weird to me that kicking a player has the same penalty as a shove, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

    - Palmer getting into the lane early is a good sign.

    - Of course tonight is the night Clemson hits 3s...

    - I like having Nana and Tom on the floor at the same time.

    - Heiman changes shots in the paint...

    - Palmer picked up a garbage offensive foul that should have been called on Clemson's Thomas. The very next trip down the court, he picked up another silly foul. Sneaky hidden no-call that may or may not have had a significant outcome...

    - Loved how these guys have hung in there. That's the benefit of a veteran crew.

    - Roby's just, IDK, not locked in or something. He's a total team player because he shouldn't be playing the 5 and it's costing him minutes.

    - When Nebraska's defense is good, it's really, really good.

    - Some really good minutes from Tanner with Roby on the bench. Maybe the best of his career.

    - This is the Nebrasketball we saw last year. Scrappy, attacking and relentless. 

    - NU made some huge plays down the stretch, despite Clemson pushing it to 2 points.

    - This is a win that will resonate in February and March. This is a win they didn't have last year.

    Clemson fans might want to show up to games before they worry too much about this.......... sheesh.

     

     

     

    Funny enough... someone actually said something to that effect.  It was something like “how many of you actually went to the game last night?”

    So the Clemson board has a “Will we get to 15 wins” thread and a “Fire Brownell” thread.  Feels good to see those somewhere else.  ?

    I'll answer that for them

     

    Yes.  Easily.  We are a good team and for some reason almost nobody including a lot of our fans wants to admit it.

     I get that, and I also get a lot of hesitation because of our history.  My question to all of the doubters...

     

    What more do you need to see?  If we beat Creighton will that do it or will we hear that the Big East is down?  Beat OKST or will it  be that "well they lost to Charlotte."

     

    What will make you a believer?

    A very vocal part of our fan base has wanted to fire miles for a couple years now and won't believe until we actually win the ncaa game in march.

     

    I point directly at the rivals board for that nonsense.

     

    Frankly, this team could EASILY make a sweet 16 run.  I'd like to see us make a run in a strong B1g before I say that, but the opportunity and talent are both there.  You cant tell me this team is worse than say... last year's Loyola Chicago team.

     

    It is right there in front of them.  The naysayers to be fair mostly agree with that they just think miles cant coach.

    Good Lord. Brownell is one of the good guys in the business too...when the NCAA-court case dust settles (if anything ever comes of it), he'll be one of the ones still holding onto his job, I think, and coaches with NCAA tournament experience who aren't implicated in all this may be a little harder to come by. But sure, can the best thing that's happened to your program in a while... (oddly, I feel like I could make the same argument here.)

     

    Can anyone more tech-competent than I am cut down Kent's GOT IT! from that? I used to have that as my notification whenever I got a text and kind of miss it but my old file was a few phones ago.

    Few teams ever EASILY make a Sweet 16 run. 

     

    The teams that do are considered "elite."  We are not that.

    For real... sheesh indeed. Flaky fake fans annoy me. The same blue blood types who walk out with 5 minutes left. Dont they realize that they have a really good team this year? And I'm tired of the frickin disrespect, why is it suddenly the END OF THE WORLD and their program when a team loses to Nebraska? Have to earn a reputation I guess. Smh

    Sure. But that's a lousy excuse for the coach to use as to why they lost this game.

    Not to be that guy but I wonder if Ames, IA native and grad transfer post player Javan White would have come here if we pursued him.  He's a solid player and is giving Clemson 10-15 minutes of time as Thomas' backup.

    Fair, but that's semantics.  I never meant it in the "it will be easy" just that "we are easily in the range of teams that can do it".

     

    I knew what you meant.  As opposed to saying "it would be hard to imagine us getting that far," for this team, it would be easy to imagine we could get that far.

    How about their 6'9" forward who hasn't played a game yet this year? He put up 12/8 a year ago and he's looking at coming off the bench for a big chunk of the rest of his career.

    You had me on Ames, Iowa and I was thinking ISU.  Cameron Lard put up 12/8 for the Cyclones last season and hasn't seen the floor this year due to his 7-game suspension.  When he comes back, he's not going to be the starter.  And it's certainly possible he would remain not the starter all of next season.

     

    He's already missed most of the 1st semester games this year.  Transfer at semester and be eligible roughly this time next year.  Does it make sense for him to transfer at this point?  And if he did, would we want a 6'9", 230# beast who has some weed issues?
