Whatever he said he removed it

There were a lot of disappointing things tonight. One of the more disappointing was how we couldn't get anything going in the paint against a team so small

At least the night was not a total loss

NAILED IT JIMMY

@Norm Peterson Time to update that thread title

Nebraska 73 - George Mason 67

Nebraska Cornhuskers (3-2) vs George Mason Patriots (6-1) ** Cayman Islands Classic 2019 ** Date: Tuesday Nov. 25, 2019 Time: 6:30 p.m. Arena: John Grey Gym Broadcast: FloHoops+ (pay) ($30) https://www.flohoops.com/ PSA: DON'T SUBSCRIBE TO THE FLOHOOPS $12.95 PLAN OR YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR George Mason Head Coach: Dave Paulson Location: Fairfax, VA Conference: A-10 Nickname: Patriots Mascot: THE PATRIOT KenPom rank: 148 Previous history: None Offensive Style: Tim Miles-esque dribble drive Defensive Style: Low Steals/low fouls Line: Nebraska by 2 Bracket Players to watch: AJ Wilson The 6'7" junior is the only rim protector on a very small George Mason team. Wilson does his damage in the paint and draws a lot of fouls down low. The Skinny: Time got away from me here. Dave Paulson is a long time coach and Hoiberg was able to speak about his 1-2-2 three quarter press after beating WSU so we should have a good game plan. GM with that press will be trying to slow down Nebraska after made baskets but a small team like the Patriots will want to get into a running game with Nebraska at times. Always expect the Huskers to shoot from deep but their best bet would be to attack the paint vs a small George Mason squad ill-equipped to stop it. The Patriots are going to throw a dribble drive at Nebraska but the Huskers can also defend without fouling. A potential boost for George Mason might be the return of last year's leading scorer Justin Kier from injury. If Nebraska can get George Mason to play at their speed, they should win this one. In a half-court game, Nebraska's lack of rebounds and FT makes might hand them another loss. Prediction: Nebraska 73 - George Mason 67 View full article

Good find Should be a big game for Oduro with Calixte probably out. (one of their few post players) Kier is probably going to get around 8 minutes today (per Paulsen presser) (Kier was probably their best returning player who hasn't been able to play yet due to a leg injury)

Audio including pre and post game

They don't seem to have the numbers of a successful rock shooting team

Shows Mack with 5 fouls. Did they forget to foul him out?

Nice win!

Is it bad that i'm actively rooting for Mack to not reach double digits so only 4 guys do?

Being plagued again by the ghosts of Christmas bad offensive rebounding and the ghosts of Christmas missed FTs

Two fouls on Mack

A little John COUGAR

Nebraska 74 - Washington St 69 4 in double

Nebraska Cornhuskers (2-2) vs Washington St Cougars (2-2) ** Cayman Islands Classic 2019 ** Date: Monday Nov. 25, 2019 Time: 6:30 p.m. Arena: John Grey Gym Broadcast: FloHoops+ (pay) ($30) https://www.flohoops.com/ PSA: DON'T SUBSCRIBE TO THE FLOHOOPS $12.95 PLAN OR YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR Washington St Head Coach: Kyle Smith Location: Pullman, WA Conference: Pac-12 Nickname: Cougars Mascot: Butch T. Cougar KenPom rank: 151 Previous history: Nebraska 6-2 vs the Cougars all-time (The Cougars and Huskers had a home and away series in the 60s where the visiting team played two games in a row) Notes: Nebraska 6-2 vs the Cougars Line: Washington St by 1 Bracket Players to watch: CJ Elleby The 6'6" sophomore SF is quite the local product recruited by the recently replaced Ernie Kent. Elleby set the freshman record for scoring with 471 points last year, passing another Cougar player of note, Klay Thompson. Elleby can shoot from anywhere on the court and can also function as a point forward. When he isn't busy scoring a ton of points he finds time to also lead the team in rebounds and steals. The Huskers should focus on making someone else beat them tonight and whomever is guarding Elleby is probably whom we consider our best defender. Players to watch: Isaac Bonton Washington St brought in a few JUCO players and former Montana St to Juco guard Isaac Bonton is the one currently scoring in double digits. Bonton has been fairly dynamic, leading the team in assists as well as shooting a lot. He's currently personally dragging down the Cougar's 3pt shooting numbers so turning Bonton into a guy that jacks 3s (assuming he doesn't start hitting them) seems like a way to slow down an already sub-par Cougar half court offense. The Skinny: Seems like Washington St might now have the right kind of coach to succeed in a place that makes Nebraska basketball look successful. New coach Kyle Smith is noted for his commitment to analytics and ability to flip up under-recruited prospects. Smith has leaned into the analytics thus far and his guard oriented team has focused on generating turnovers moreso than any other that Smith has led. NU and WSU are similar in the sense that they're both programs under a new coach with a lot of new faces, they both struggle to rebound (WSU does a lot better job on the defensive end than Nebraska), and they both have struggled from outside this year. Nebraska seems more primed to win the FT battle in this one. How much is Washington St going to concentrate on crashing the defensive boards vs stopping transition? I expect both teams to try and correct their last game bugaboos. Nebraska will most likely concentrate on rebounding and making FTs. Washington St should focus on shot selection and not taking half of their shots from 3. We know a lot about Nebraska's adversity issues but Washington St is in the same boat. Let's hope our boat is sturdier today. Thinking this will be relatively low scoring but there is no outcome here that would surprise me. Prediction: Nebraska 74 - Washington St 69 View full article
