  1. UNL 68 rat family led team 63 three
  2. Have you ever heard of beer? It’s better ?
  3. Beer drinking + basketball won out tonight ?
  4. Giorgi (sp?) and ayo are some damn good freshman for Illinois. Will haunt us for years to come. Would love to have that Georgian’s post game on our team.
  5. I agree with the OP almost completely. Leaving early is baffling. Yes some people have babysitters or something important happening, but only some people. So I can understand some people leaving but not that usual ‘mass exodus’. I guess I am a basketball-only husker fan so I look forward to every game, want to watch very minute, and when I can, drive down from Omaha in crappy weather to watch even a struggling team play. The mass exodus doesn’t bother me as much as Wednesday though. Arrived one minute late to a half-empty, dead-silent arena. Only a half-full student section. Could hear Turgeon from the 300 level. People booing college kids that are playing a game for our entertainment who are in a funk. Honestly, I bet our guys are passing up shots because they don’t want to hear the groans for a miss or a sarcastic cheer for a make. Disheartening. Yes there are die-hard basketball fans (anyone on this board obviously) but I think I have to face the music and realize many fans that come to the games are football fans and FAIRWEATHER basketball fans. I think we just should take the classic JFK approach to watching sports to heart. ‘Ask not what your team can do for you, ask what you can do for your team.’ In other words, we need to be that sixth man and pump up the players so they aren’t afraid of upsetting the fickle fans in the arena who won’t show up/leave early.
  6. Didn’t look at previous posts. Emptiest arena ever: best fans in the country! ?
  7. Many (including myself) were worried about us being penn states first B10 win, worry no more! They got off the Schneid last night.
  8. They are AP ranked now. Take that for what it’s worth, but definitely would be a bigger win/possible springboard.
  9. I thought so. Watching people leave/crowds negative energy was disheartening. Maybe because it wasn’t the regular crowd in my section (who were silent). A lot of people were leaving, enough so to prompt some guy in the next section to angrily yell ‘GO BEAT THE TRAFFIC’ which was great.
  10. This is the logical approach. But seeing people in creighton gear around town in omaha after the game made me smile. I know it’s bad karma, can’t help it!
  11. I know I’m beating a dead horse but starters playing the entire second half: not sustainable!!
  12. Having watched Purdue, Ohio State, and Wisconsin this year, I would categorize these three as teams that do not scare me.
  13. Just watched. I know I’m in the minority but dudes looked gassed. Barely went to the bench in the second half. No nana. No Brady. Just tanner a few minutes. TA/cope need more looks. Palmer is great, but tonight his eyes seemed set on the nba scouts.
