- Pitchford is going to have a devil of a time defending the post this year by himself. When Miles says we're a big away, that's what he's talking about. He's going to get backed down pretty easily in the Big Ten. He'll cause matchup problems on the other end, but that's going to be tough for him.
- Was also good to see him go to the pump fake and drive a couple of times tonight. Nice added dimension if he can do that to his game.
- I made the comment after Peltz's blocking foul that it was nearly impossible to draw a charge this year...then Webster comes right down the floor and draws one.
- The chink in Webster's game right now: free throw shooting. Thought he was off in general tonight, in terms of scoring. Thought he did a pretty good job of distributing and finding his teammates. How many turnovers did he have?
- Parker was a spark plug again tonight. I think he'll still get minutes when Biggs and Gallegos come back. Not sure how many, but he'll get some.
- Shields did what Shields does. He's Mr. Steady for the Huskers.
- Petteway, seemed like he forced it a bit. Still finished in double figures, but thought he tried to do a little too much tonight.
- Rivers had one shot where last year I think he pulls up for a 15-footer, but he drove to the rim, missed the layup but was fouled. I think we'll see this a lot this year. I'll be curious to see how many mid-range jumpers we see as the year goes on when you're almost guaranteed to get the foul called if you take it to the rim.
- Fewer than ten turnovers was nice. Hope that continues.
- Sounds like Fuller is for sure going to redshirt now. That should pay off in a couple of years.
- Not a bad turnout tonight, though it did feel like a Nebrasketball crowd. Not a ton of energy in the building. Wasn't sure what I expected tonight. Student section filled in better than I thought it was going to about 5 minutes before the game.
- Really interested to see what the crowd is on Sunday. S. Carolina St. might be the worst team on the schedule. That one could be U-G-L-Y...
