You had Johnny Manziel in your section!?

No such luck - the “surprising amount of good sense” automatically disqualified Manziel.

Finally home from Memphis with some time to put this in perspective. 

As far as the game itself, I was so upset in the immediate aftermath. Giving up 58 points in the 1st half??? I mean, c’mon! But in retrospect, I’m not sure there are many teams that could have stayed with TAMU given the way they shot the ball. 

Nebraska fans, take a freakin bow. You truly are the best fans in the country and the way you showed up in Memphis was absolutely incredible.

• I was in Section 112 - to the TAMU d’bag in Section 113 who decided to start yapping: you showed a surprising amount of good sense when you snuck out before the final buzzer. You picked the wrong section, wrong fan base and you knew it. There were more than a half dozen NU fans in their mid-30s (not me) that would have liked to speak to you. 

It has been a fun year to cheer for this team. I’m hoping and praying that this is the start of something special. To all on the board - have a great offseason! GBR Always!

By the way, this is my b-day gift to myself, and we're staying at the same hotel as the Nebraska Cornhuskers, oh yeah!!!!

 

Whether you recall or not, our beloved Freddy was hired on my birthday, March 30. GBR Always. LET'S DO THIS, BIG RED!!

I missed it - which hotel is the team site?

Section 112 for Friday. Will do the same for Sunday when needed.

I’m staying at the Sheraton downtown using hotel points (Marriott). Consideration was walking distance to the arena - it’s less than a mile.

OSU goes on the road and blows out RU - the Bucks will be a tough out next week.

Said it a week ago - would much rather stay away from them for as long as possible. They have really turned it around since firing Holtmann.

Easier to win by double digits when refs call things consistent.

Of course it is - but this is reality, not fantasy. Refs have NEVER called it consistently. Quit bitching about it. Play better - minimize the reasons for the whistle to blow to the best of your ability.  That's the point.

Not sure why I keep think reffing will change. I'm an idiot for thinking that.

IMO, officiating should never be a topic - it has been, is now and always will be inconsistent at best. Everyone knows it and it won't change. Play in a way that minimizes the possibility it will have an effect on the outcome...you know, like win by double digits!

Nicely done fellas - now, CJ let’s maybe stay inside the arc for a bit. 

Better get under control - they’ve got us scrambling on both ends early.

As much as I want to pick differently and I do hope I'm wrong, I haven't seen anything to make me believe the pattern will be broken.

The difference is we are making shots, and taking care of the ball.  We have much more pep in our step.  It shouldn't be that way.  If we ever figure this effort out, when we aren't making shots, we would be a great team.

Agreed - always nice to make shots. But could the effort on defense, the rebounding, etc. create easier shots to make? For this team (for most in my opinion), it starts with the effort on defense and on the boards. 

Love to watch NU hoops play well - but is anyone else feeling a little pissed off as to why this type of energy & defense doesn’t happen on the road?
