Ubel-ish?

Big win. Such a difference going forward getting at least one win against the quality opponents on the schedule, and doing it in clutch fashion down the stretch. Has to help down the road.

Still, take away the desperation banked-in heaves, and we're up by 1.

What's the record for banked-in threes at the buzzer?

We're fu-king jinxed.

Love television producers' depictions of Lincoln. Halftime shot of cattle wandering in a lonely field. Hack announcer: "Here at the Pinnacle Bank Arena, it's halftime . . . ." And you wonder why recruits who actually make it to Lincoln invariably say, "I thought it was just going to be cows and cornfields."

Are you f-ing kidding me?

Uh, pick and roll, maybe?

Diiiiiiimes, dude. You have those backwards. I mean, those have to be backwards, don't they? Nope Wow! Does that mean we'd better off fouling him shooting 3s in order to send him to the FT Line! Well, if he shot 6 uncontested threes, he'd make four of them = 12 points. If we fouled him shooting those threes, assuming he didn't make the basket, he'd shoot 18 FTs and make five of them = 5 points. Sounds like a job for Tanner Borchardt.

Nebraska 73 Creighton 72 7 deep balls for NU.

I always like it when the team that's better at basketball wins the game.

A dominant win in Omaha that ends with no one in the Clink but red-clad true Husker fans, and they'll be screaming "Go Big Red" to anyone who cares to listen. Oh, and a volleyball national championship in the same building 10 days later.

Are you sure?

I always thought he sounded like Red Auerbach.

Statistically, the game looks pretty good on the Huskers except for letting Miami shoot 28 free throws. UM also outrebounded NU 41-34, but with their length and athleticism, that has to be expected. NU held UM to 41 percent shooting from the field and 29 percent shooting from deep. Conversely, the Huskers shot 42 from the field and 50 percent from deep. We had 12 turnovers to Miami's 14, NU had 10 assists to Miami's 8. Our bench was outscored 23-16.

And they made 82 percent of those free throws, better than their 76 percent average on the season to date.

Big props to jayschool for getting a perfect score this game! Wow. Next time predict NU to win, please. If it matters, I have us by 1 against Miamuh.

How has McVeigh lived up to your expectations, Norm? I suspect we haven't seen enough of Evelyn or Jacobson to make those calls.

Cincinnati beats GW 61-56.

Seriously, is anyone going to come within 20 of this team?
