    I think NU needs to be willing to run a bit. I know CU loves to go fast, but NU's at it's best when it's pushing, too. That's probably also our bet shot at Glynn having a good game. I don't think NU's as good when they have to grid things out. Rebounding and defense will be key.

    I have no idea how good the competition is, but Wingett is playing well so far. Through 5 games, he's the teams leading scorer by a lot. He's 30/39 from 3!!!. He's actually shooting better from outside the arc than inside it. He's the 3rd leading rebounder on the team. 2/1 Assist-to-turnover ratio. http://www.hometeamsonline.com/teams/default.asp?u=LIONS2722&s=basketball&p=stats&viewseas=Winter_2017/2018&cat=Total

    That could very well be him. But that outcome is certainly on the table... history suggests as much. If they don't play scared, which it seems like they have done the past few times in Omaha, they should be able to keep this game in question deep into the game. If they play like they did vs. St. Johns or UCF, they'll get run out of the building.

    How are the refs gonna call the game?

    Hegner going to be back?

    Kus game here will be their first road game. Washington is taking it right at them.

    Every home game is winnable here on out (save maybe Kansas, but you never know). With what I've seen from the B1G so far this year, we've played our toughest conference home game. NU brings what they brought last night to the rest of the conference home games, they'll be just fine. Can't fall asleep for any of those 3 between KU and Wisconsin, though.

    didn't coach pull him out right after that and lay into him a bit? What was that all about?

    Not bad considering it was the first go at it.

    Well, no, it wasn't the absolute best case scenario. The current best case scenario is 4-1. It's probably not realistic, but it is the best case scenario.

    Took a bit of a step back last night, 6/21, 26%. .361 on the season, 138 in NCAA, tied with Duke.

    That was a different Nebraska team than we've seen all year. If they bring that energy, effort and fire most nights, they'll be playing in March. Glynn: TFS They were really aggressive in pushing the ball tonight. Hope we see more of that. Copeland quietly had a solid game. Jordy still struggled a bit on the offensive end, though he did have a pretty little dime to Roby after the under 8 TO in the 2nd half. He was much, much better on the defensive end and boards. Duby, too. First game in five where they were under 40% from 3. But they got to the line a ton tonight and made their free throws. That's closer to what I expect from them than what we've seen this year. Miles said they used a defense on Lynch, I think, that they hadn't practiced before their walk-through yesterday. There was an offensive foul where Mason got trucked by Duby. Miles asked him if he was OK before the inbound. They both shared a laugh. Cool moment. Crowd was legit tonight. Good work, team. "Husker Power" needs to be better. Seems like we've got our rotation pared down to 9. That's probably a good spot for it. I actually liked the little scuffle and chippyness that led to the technical fouls. NU needs to play with more of that edge. The guy who took the half court shot before the game was asked how he was feeling, he said: "Not too great". Then he nailed the halfcourt shot. I turned to my buddy and said, "let's hope that's hint at what's to come." Turns out it was. Fun night had by all...except for my Minnesota friends. Let's bring that effort and energy to the Clink on Saturday and see what happens.

    I'm guessing Matt's days as a color commentator have come to their completion.

    4th straight game above 40% and 5 of 6. That's starting to become a trend. If they'd shot at that four game pace for the whole season, they'd be a top 5 3 point shooting %. If they'd shot at that 6 game pace for the whole season, they'd be a top 25 team from behind the arc. But because four of the first five games they only hit at 30%, they're sitting just outside the top 100. If they hit at their 4 game pace (9/20) they could jump into the top 60.

    Jordy isn't a bad basketball player. He shot 45% from the floor and 62.5% from the line and that was after a slow start to the year. For him to take such a dramatic step backwards is perplexing. Duby was better than 60% from the floor, too. He didn't attempt many shots, but over the course of 3 seasons he was much more efficient than he's been. I gotta believe there's some reversion back to those numbers for both of them.

    What's fascinating in the poor fg shooting is that we've had a decent year shooting the 3. Easily the best under Miles, huge jump from last year.

    This one went largely as expected. It's gonna be tough for this team to go anywhere as long as Jordy and Duby continue to play with constant foul trouble. Good to see Roby back. Not sure how many front lines we'll face like this one. NU couldn't do anything in the paint. After a good stretch shooting the ball, they took a major step back in that category today, only hitting at 27.4% from the floor Michigan St. is really, really good. They're gonna go far in my bracket in March. That's as much energy as I'm willing to spend on this game right now.

    Played a huge factor, no question.

    Eh, I liked the couple extra minutes Nana and Thor got tonight. If you're not gonna redshirt them, use them in those situations. But yes, I'm tired of getting outmatched, too.
  21. uneblinstu
    This is where I'm at, too. Especially the first sentence. We need Jordy (and to a lesser extent Duby) to contribute at least something. We're not really getting that right now.
  22. uneblinstu
    They're absolutely beatable. They're also very good and could certainly beat us, even handily, but they're not close to MSU's level. If we shoot closer to our season numbers, we'll be right in this game.

    They're at least saying the right things.

    I'm expecting him to be introduced at the KU game.
