WTF UNL 71 PSU 70

Jordy (9) outscored Watson (3), Taylor (1) and Roby (4) combined.

Was it as bad for you as it was for me? Pass the cigarettes.

So now someone can claim we defeated the Happ-less Badgers.

It is a huge game, indeed. In 11 hours, we'll have one of two very different narratives out there, no matter the unreasonableness of both: this is a team headed for something special OR same ol', same ol' — Fire Miles!

I'll play. Mike Riley: Generally mediocre coach from Oregon/Washington/California that everybody likes and even had a couple of brushes with success in the past -> Ernie Kent. Scott Frost: Local legend comes back to save the day -> Iowa native and current assistant at North Dakota Jeff Horner.

I know the comparisons are easy because of their penchant for embarrassing themselves on national television, but Bo P. and Fran are kind of historical parallels as well, regarding their universities' histories. Consider this: Dr. Tom Osborne and Dr. Tom Davis: Though Osborne was much more successful, both were seen as professorial program leaders who won a lot (three Sweet 16 berths for Davis). Frank Solich and Steve Alford: Kept the program above water, but didn't succeed in ways their predecessor did. Bill Callahan and Todd Lickliter: Good lord, what happened? Bo and Fran: Program steadily improved early in tenure, but it seems to have leveled off at OK. Both are notoriously foul-mouthed hotheads.

"Jesse" James Palmer. Kind of like it.

Maryland fan had a fun poster: FRANGER MANAGEMENT

91-73 loss at Maryland. Coach Fran gets two first-half T's and is bounced. Hawks 0-5 in conference. Road games against Illinois and Rutgers give them a shot at breaking the streak.

This, but I like our chances in nearly dead arenas called "home courts" by the other team. So PSU is definitely in play.

No. The men played in Rosemont, at what used to be the Horizon Arena. It's now the All State or State Farm Arena or something. Was DePaul's home gym back when they were good. The women's game is at Evanston Twp HS. So closer to campus, but not nearly as nice.

So that's a high school gym. Nice.

Nebraska 69 Wisconsin 61

Maybe it's a make-up for not calling the testicle fouls earlier.

H-A-A-R-M-S. Double A's for a double dose of douchery.

Palmer kind of carrying the Huskers, if you can say that about a team down by 11. He has 18 points and seven boards.

I think I could develop a little Aaron Craft-like disgust when it comes to Matt Haarms. You?

Roby on Haas now. Let's see what happens.

Soon. Gotta lull Purdue into a sense of complacency by letting them open a 20-point lead first. Patience.

Has Purdue copyrighted that post elbow? They should. It's gold, Jerry.

Are we in the bonus yet? Oh, right.

No Haarms, no foul.

We have five rebounds. 5.

He throws a smooth elbow, that's for sure.
