So no banked-in 3s today? Davison's tailbone pad absorbing a lot of impact, though.

Good things?

It's an Ides of March thing. Whether or not Tim deserves to stay, he doesn't deserve this backstabbing statement.

I need a drink.

We can analyze motivation, hustle and all the other intangible factors in basketball, but after Copeland's injury, when James Palmer Jr. and Glynn Watson made shots, Nebraska won. When one of them didn't, we lost, and that was more often than not. ON EDIT: Goodness, I hope I can watch these guys again this year.

Schadenfreude Time for the rest of the tournament: Let's Go, Blue! Beat the Hawkeyes!

How about little Brady so he can play Hack-A-Happ?

How many damned banked-in 3's have teams gotten against us? It seems like a great deal more than we've gotten.

Hell, I'm tired. It's Friday, man.

So. Much. This.

That's DJ Carstensen.

Not goaltending. Miles told the refs "It's not goaltending." They disagreed. Seven-point swing.

I get the idea of the double-bye: you want to reward the top four teams and punish the bottom four. But it can create create some ugly games on Day Three if one team is playing its third game in three days, and its fourth game in six days. Let's hope the Huskers can hang in.

Or put them in cities where people might actually be interested in watching. I remember going to NCAA Tournament games at the Devaney Center, and it was packed, even for Jackson State. Then the NCAA decided that Lincoln didn't have enough hotel rooms. Pshh.

Nebraska coaches' records in post-season games: Miles 5-8 (5-6 in conference tournaments, 0-1 in NCAA, 0-1 in NIT) Sadler 3-9 (2-6 in conference, 0-0 in NCAA, 1-3 in NIT) Collier 3-8 (2-6 in conference, 0-0 in NCAA, 1-2 in NIT) Nee 20-23 (7-14 in conference, 0-5 in NCAA, 13-4 in NIT) Iba 8-10 (3-6 in conference, 0-1 in NCAA, 5-3 in NIT) Cipriano 3-7 (2-4 in conference, 1-3 in NIT)

Nebraska 62 Wisconsin 61

Yep. And here in Iowa, Hulu provides me with the Twins, Royals, Cubs, White Sox, Brewers and that red team in eastern Missouri as "home teams." So much better than cable.

Runzas 63 Crab Cakes 72

I don't wander. Too fu**ing cold here.

Pissed off that Penn State has made the Hawks an also-ran in wrestling. Fired up about the women's tournament in Carver-Hawkeye. Puzzled at how a Nebraska team with literally six recruited scholarship players could beat Fran. Contemplating how much they really need Patrick McCaffery next year, or if saying goodbye to the whole family might be a good thing. Preparing an "Outback Bowl Champs" banner for Kinnick Stadium

Nice Rockettes action by Lil' J-Bo on that last shot.

The volleyball team is keeping us in the black for the time being.
