Do we need to tweak our starting lineup?? Seems like we are struggling to score with our current starting lineup. I think Id prefer Morgan over Meah. I like having Connor come off bench for now but could slide him in there and play Berke at 5. We get into conference play and we cant afford slow starts offensively.

Fidler first one?

Tonje? the one averaging 17.8 pg

Nebraska-74 Southern-60

How we feeling headed into conference play.. I’m still unsure how we will stack up.. January schedule looks brutal. Need to beat UCLA. They should be in top 15 when they come here next weekend

Boy I just looked at Seat Geek for some tickets.... I know its a Saturday afternoon game but Yikes Big money for those! National televised game on FOX is going to be awesome! Cant wait!!

Feel like that's how Fred likes to finish our games out as well.

Agreed, Ive been pleasantly surprised by Berke's defense. I know on the broadcast they even talked about how Berke was our 2nd best defender next to Gary and Id agree with that except for maybe Sam.

Got to think Covid really benefited him. Would he had been given another year if we hadnt gone thru covid?? I believe under normal circumstances he wouldnt of got another year to turn things around. Glad it worked out.

also lost at USC 51-82, but could be kind of a trap game here.

F’n horrible.

Are we better with Worster or would we be better if we still had J Law playing PG? I lean J Law just because of his shooting.

Nebraska-68 OSU-72

Ya I was expecting a lot more from Worster. He does a good job running the show and getting us into our offense but has struggled shooting and with turnovers a both more than I expected.

I have been impressed as well with Berke and his rebounding as well as his defense. His shot though is bad right now. Im trying to think back when I watched him this summer when he played for his country and it seemed like his shot was a lot better then. We need him to start hitting a few. With Worster struggling shooting as well that could be a problem when we get into conference play.

+/- vs. Hawaii Worster +16 Berke +16 Williams +14 Meah +14 Gary +9 Essegian +5 Hoiberg +4 Morgan -5 Jacobsen -3

@GhostOfJoeMcCray Feel free to edit or add if you want but thought I'd add +/- vs. Murray St Gary +21 Morgan +16 Essegian +13 Hoiberg +8 Williams +7 Worster +7 Berke +6 Meah +4 Jacobsen +3

Neb 72 Hawaii 69

Skers: 86 M St.: 79 7 made

Morgan needs more minutes IMO. Definitely need more from Brice and Gary!!

Larry Johnson & Sterling Knox, both freshman

Huskers 80 Hoosiers 71

Noticed Creighton is possibly looking at 2 mid year departures... Wonder if Nebraska will see any. Definitely hope not but in this day and age anything is possible.

Agreed, until we actually win a tournament like this I am not counting us to go 3-0. Id be happy with 2-1 but 3-0 should be the goal.

Back to Michigan St. game. Its pretty frustrating our two supposed returning leaders had the worst +/- on the team! Hopefully they rebound in a big way Friday night!
