Nebraska Cornhuskers (4-3) at Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (3-2) Date: Wednesday Dec 4th, 2019 Time: 6:15 p.m. Arena: McCamish Pavilion (8,600, 122nd largest in D-I) Broadcast: ESPNU (Streaming link) Georgia Tech Head Coach: Josh Pastner Location: Atlanta, Georgia Conference: ACC Nickname: Yellow Jackets Mascot: Buzz and Ramblin' Wreck KenPom rank: 72 Previous history: Georgia Tech leads the all-time series 1-0. Nebraska lost their only matchup back in 1983 to Bobby Cremins and a GT squad with John Salley and Mark Price Offensive Style: Give the ball to Michael Devoe Defensive Style: Continuous rotation of man, 1-3-1, and 2-3 zone as the situation dictates Rotation Size: 7-8 Line: Gerogia Tech by 8.5 Key Injuries: Starting point guard Jose Alverado is expected to miss this game with an ankle injury Hoiberg Presser Cheatham Presser Players to watch: Michael Devoe The sophomore SG has been dynamite to start the season, currently leading the ACC in scoring at 23.4 points per game. While he hasn't taken a ton of 3s, he's been hitting them at an unsustainable 65% clip. Expect Devoe to continuously slash to the hole and Nebraska having a hard time stopping him. Players to watch: James Banks The 6'10" 250 lb senior center is blocking everything, averaging a ridiculous 5 blocks per game and unlike a lot of big men his size he's not going to come off the court for breathers or foul trouble. Nebraska will have to pick and choose their moments to attack the rim. Roster points PG SG SF PF C Pct 1 0 Michael Devoe 6-5 193 So 11 Bubba Parham 5-10 160 Jr 12 Khalid Moore 6-7 203 So 5 Moses Wright 6-9 230 Jr 1 James Banks 6-10 250 Sr 25.1 With Alvardao out this game and USC transfer Jordan Usher not eligible until mid-semester, GT plays only 7-8 guys and as you can see, often times that will involve two players over 6'9" and 230#. In addition to Banks and Devoe we have VMI transfer Bubba Parham who was a dynamic 3pt shooter who hasn't yet gotten on track at GT Moses Wright is the rebounding complement to Banks. Highly efficient inside post scorer Khalid Moore is a slasher on offense 6'10" 225# Evan Cole is the backup 4/5 and an above average defender 6'5" freshman guard Asanti Price is a backup guard who can stroke from outside but hasn't made many of them yet (2-14) The Skinny: I'm on the fence about this being a good or poor matchup for Nebraska. On the good side, I think this is a team Nebraska can get to run with them and can generate points in transition or via turnover. Tech wants to drive inside and Nebraska has been effective at defending without fouling. Tech isn't a team that hunts for offensive rebounds. On the poor side, Tech has two post players with the potential to dominate this poor rebounding Nebraska squad. When Nebraska isn't in transition, which is the majority of the time, the Huskers and their poor half court offense will face off against a stingy rotating defensive team. If Nebraska isn't hitting 3s tonight, this could get UGLY. Beating Georgia Tech isn't a lost cause as an Arkansas team with no height to speak of came in and knocked off the Yellow Jackets at home on a night where both teams had trouble scoring. More than likely though we're looking at GT clamping down defensively at points to go on runs that the Huskers will hope they can counter. The Huskers have been a roller coaster this year and it's probably one of the low points tonight in their first true road game. Prediction: Georgia Tech 83- Nebraska 68 View full article

someone anonymously mailed me a betamax cassette of the game

Video of the game if you didn't get to see it

haha I was listening to Miles' new podcast when I posted this

Miles Hoiberg mentioned in his radio show that we only have one scholarship open for 2020 so in his mind this is still Donovan's

That and you can roll with Cross or Stevenson at the 5 when you want/need to play small ball

Don't think there was a show last week due to Nebraska being on the Cancun trip Dec 2nd, 2019 Show #5 - Hoiberg Head Coach Fred Hoiberg gives an overview of the tournament Caller John asks about FTs woes, former Huskers that were a tough matchup for HCFH as a player at Iowa St (Pike, Strickland), and finally asks for encouragement for the football team. Caller Tyler asked about the resort (so he can humblebrag about being there) and asked about the team struggling in the 2nd game. HCFH briefly talks abut the team meeting held after the second game. Caller Chris asks about what does the staff do to keep the players focused when they have a big lead. Sioux City Scott asks about Mack coming off the bench though specifically mentions he doesn't need to know why. HCFH talks about how he handled it well in game three and how he has been practicing well since the return from the Caymans. Caller Tom asks HCFH about his thoughts on Mack crossing a guy over and pointing at him. HCFH thinks the team plays better with swagger but had a talk with Mack about it. Greg and HCFH talk about the play of the centers and HCFH refers to Kevin Cross as being a 6'6". Went into detail about Cheatham and Burke stepping up lately. Youth coach John asks HCFH about the mechanics of shooting. Kyle in FIlley doesn't have a question but notes beating Creighton would be fun and just stops. After a pause HCFH delves into Creighton on a high level and then notes Georgia Tech is the focus. Kyle then asks about what attributes he looks for in a recruit and who he is looking for in this cycle. HCFH notes we have one scholarship open and then lists talent to play in B1G, athleticism to play fast, shooting, and then guys that come from winning programs. Delved into Stevenson and the sit out transfers. Finished up the show touching on the 2020 tournament at Myrtle Beach and then looking at the upcoming schedule and playing zone at the end of the South Florida game

lol Kavas is the man

I pulled up my computer to skype with family yesterday and there was a screenshot of women's unmentionables I had to explain.... HAPPY BLACK FRIDAY!

Didn't know if I should put this here or in the "Thanks" thread

Oh I saw that. I assumed both were joking around

I'll have to clip it. When did he say it?

Mack was pulled from the starting lineup because he was sulking after yesterday's game

While i can complain about the price and the announcers being the guys from the Sonic commercials, the stream itself has given me no problems
