    uneblinstu's post game chatter: ed 5, vol 27 - Wisconsin

      Welp, that was ugly

    .

    - Six man rotation not gonna be enough.

    - I know Almedia isn't good and was hurt, but we gotta have him get a few minutes or these last three games are gonna be ugly. A five and a half man rotation can work for a half or a game or perhaps even two, but it's not condusive for sustained success unless they're elite players, which our guys aren't.

    - Wisconsin is just good, especially at home. Sometimes I wonder if the Big Ten will get six teams to the sweet 16.

    - Dekker's gonna have a huge career for Wisconsin.

    - He's gonna get a hard time for it, I'm sure, but props for Evans for putting the pride aside to go with the jump shot free throw.

    - I don't really know what to say about the Huskers tonight. They were just out manned in about every phase.

    - Doesn't help when we've don't know how to execute a 4 on 2 break, though.

    - Sloppy with the ball, too.

    - Just no answer for Wisconsin's length.

    - Given the Huskers shorter than normal bench, short turnaround and the Badgers having five days to prepare, this outcome really shouldn't be shocking to anyone.

    I'm done. Rant away, fellas.

    Sorry to disagree, a0t0w0, but it's never fun (for me at least) to hate another team's player.  Painful to hate him.  Because the reason you hate him is that he drilled your team.  Caused you to lose in an especially horrifying fashion.  I'd rather feel how I felt after the Iowa game.  That Gesell kid is a nice player.  Someday he might be a pretty good player for them.  Y'know, patronizing.  I'd rather feel patronizing toward their players than hoping they get ruled academically ineligible or that they wind up with some "pay for tattoos" scandal so that we don't have to get killed by them anymore.

     

    I meant it in a playful, almost jealous way.  Like "Garsh darn that Dekker!" I would never truly bash or get angry at ANY student athlete.  I respect each and every one for their ability to handle sports AND classes.

    No, you got me wrong.  I hate 'em.  Truly I do.  But I don't enjoy hating 'em because it means that they've inflicted a loss (or several) on my team and I hate that part.  Makes me hate 'em all the more.  I'd much rather have the pompous, dismissive, sort of patronizing "he's a nice player" attitude towards the opposing teams.  Hating is not fun.  Hating sucks as a fan because it involves my team losing.  Because of the player I'm hating.  Like DJ Byrd.  Hate that guy.  Dekker?  Hate him too.  Wish to hell I could think of Dekker the way I think of the players from Tulane.  "Y'know, they tried hard.  Might make some noise in their conference."  That kind of thing.  But, instead, I have to hate Dekker.  And it ain't no fun.  That ... bahstahd.  I hope he forgets to take his finals and gets ruled academically ineligible for next season.   :angry:

     

    ("Hey, Dekker, they rescheduled ALL of your finals for June.  Yeah, that's right.  June."

    That's usually what gets them on my list first. :huh: I wished they played for us. ^_^

     

    Then if they beat us when they don't always do it to others. :o

     

    And the last thing is how big a douche bag they are. :lol:

    Yeah, that's pretty much my standard as well.

    “I thought we withstood their first punch,” NU assistant coach Chris Harriman said. “Then the second punch kind of knocked us out. We didn't respond well to that, then our offense affected our defense.


     

    “As the misses kept piling up, defensively we got more lax.”


     

    Any thoughts of a second-half comeback for Nebraska ended when the Huskers opened the period 1 of 18 from the field.
