  1. To even be in the conversation I think Nebraska has to beat Iowa and then make at least the semis. Too bad we didn't find a way to close even 1 of the past 3 games. Would be looking pretty close if they would have got Michigan or Ohio State.
  2. Just beat Iowa and send the seniors out on a good note.
  3. Think Loenser ever realizes that the 3-point shot is one of the easiest in basketball?
  4. Should have been 6 had Berke made a free throw. You get one defensive stop on the next possession and you are pretty close to just needing to make free throws to close the game. But sometimes you just need to make a shot to win and again we couldn't. Brice missing the free throw at the end of the game (assuming OSU doesn't make a shot to win). Brice at the end of OT. Anyway I did say that the reffing at the Hawaii tournament would be better than big 10 reffing...
  5. time to blow them off their floor like Northwestern did
  6. Maybe we just have to think we are down 20 points at the tip?
  7. Our three-point defensive philosophy is terrible. Generally teams have players that can make open threes. We leave guys open and they get confidence. USC game was the same with a player that hardly shoots them but making multiple against us.
  8. I get why just don't agree with it. With the way yesterday was and at that point in the game, I'm going for the win. I'm not a fan of giving the other a team a chance to win when you don't have to.
  9. Still can't believe how badly we screwed up the end of the game. The shot clock was off right? Why run the set so early? Minnesota should not have had time left to run the court.
  10. At least we can play loose now. Nothing to lose. Thought we would get a lead and not look back with 7 to go. Berke's injury really set him back. Brice went too early on the last offensive possession. What they ran could have been ran with 8 seconds left and left 2 seconds on the clock. Defense was really poor after the fact, Morgan again floats too far from the wing.
  11. Wouldn't be afraid to get Gavin in if we are struggling to shoot the ball (hopefully not).
  12. Looking at projections right now, I would give us chance to get to the sweet 16 even as a 10-seed (depending on draw). Just win and get in.
  13. Just win and build from there. Hopefully winning one game isn't the peak.
  14. I don't think it was rushed. It looked like we ran our break and just missed the shot (maybe Connor rushed his shot a little bit). I do wonder in that situation if you don't call the timeout just so you don't leave time on the clock. We would have had 9 seconds out of a timeout. Essegian was shooting with 7 seconds left so a made shot would have left like 5 seconds (too much time). I suppose shooting early does give a team a 2nd chance (which we got with Berke).
  15. I was wondering about this. Say we only win 1 more game in the regular season but win 3 in the conference tournament. How much weight do wins in conference tournaments even have (besides the championship)? Doesn't seem like a lot.
  16. So the argument is even if they get a new arena they'll still be bad? I guess we have to beat Minnesota and start changing our narrative. Hopeful the crowd is just as good as last night on Saturday.
  17. why not the other way? to make a win against Iowa look better? but then our win against Illinois wouldn't look as good.
  18. If we can get in I feel like this team has more to it than previous tournament teams.
  19. I don't know, I'm not sure you get a better shot out of a timeout. Michigan was on their heels a bit and Connor is pretty good at that trailing three. He had two in the 1st half that looked good. Winning teams make those. It may have been a bit early though. Michigan would have had enough time.
  20. I'd give Hoiberg a pass on offense at least. Probably needed to get him more looks.
  21. Maybe. There were already two 7-footers set inside. Tough to shoot over. We probably got as good of look as anything else. If anything I would have liked to see a timeout and set something up for Williams off a screen.
  22. I think maybe you call the timeout down 1 and take the last shot. I realize why they didn't, but even had that three gone there was still time for Michigan (which is what you don't want). Of course then you let Michigan get set on defense and we couldn't seem to figure that out. Not sure why Michigan fouled Brice with 12 seconds to go to begin with, they had him pretty well trapped and were up 3. Don't think I'm a fan of how Michigan is coached. Flops. Grabbing guys on rebounds. Purposely running into players. Gonna have to be ready for Minnesota. Get the 1st win and go from there. Glad to have Berke back on the defensive end. Hopefully he gets the offense going again, was forcing way too much tonight.
  23. we've been pretty good in 2nd halves. need some other guys to hit open looks and finish at the rim.
  24. terrible call. complete bailout for the offensive player
  25. pretty good Brice. pretty good.
