With Berke at the 5 we haven’t been able to secure the defensive rebound.

That Lewis 3 might be the dagger. We are having such a time scoring and we are not getting to the FT line.

Probably need to get Williams into the game. Down 4 and can’t get down much more.

Williams having to set is bad. We lost our offensive movement and as a result trail.

I did not anticipate this much scoring. The Huskers are battling. Gaels are bricking free throws which has helped. We have to tighten up on their shooters. I am impressed with that Lewis kid for the Gaels.

Our women did last night!

Randy Bennett proves year in and out that he can coach. St Mary’s is not going to beat themselves and are playing exceptional on defense. We need more from Gary and Williams. Morgan played hard but we really miss the passing ability of Mast.

We may not be able to trap as much. They are knocking down open shots, we are not.

Not a good first 4 minutes. St Mary’s can defend.

Anyone besides me have a crush on Michelle Phillips?

You mean, I have the ball and I’m going to shoot it?

The small gym must have been to our liking. Twenty of 34 on threes. Can we make them when we need them next week? Potts continues to impress, she plays hard all the time. Prince was very assertive tonight The two Kendall’s had nice games I liked Rimdal and Nissley starting Concerned about Weidner in warmups 2nd half On to North Alabama

I would like us to push the ball in transition more. It seemed to me that we were able to get better shots than in half court offense. I like Ulis at point guard. The small lineup was effective but against top competition it may be a liability. St Mary’s lost their best player to UConn so am not sure what the Gaels have. They will be well coached and our toughest test yet.

Huskers-74 Gaels-68

Shouldn’t complain about a 26 point win. So I won’t!

Trying to figure how at half we have 45 points. Must be free throws and some transition baskets. Berke at the five is not too bad for the lineup. It will be nice if we get Bryce and Juwan both on in the same game. Nice minutes from Jacobsen.

South Dakota State has a culture of success. They are well coached.

NU-78 FDU-68

AW knows how the players perform in practice. Maybe Rimdal coming off the bench is a good thing as she supplies an offensive spark. We have a nice team.

I was pleased to see a little more focus and intensity in the 2nd half. Potts has been our most consistent player so far. I believe Rimdal should start, she has been solid every game. We still get careless with the ball and when we pick up our dribble in half court offense we have trouble executing a pass against pressure. South Dakota will give us a real test prior to our Omaha visit.

8-0 run at end of half gives us a 10 pt lead. At least our newcomers can make free throws. Not an impressive performance. Southern is not letting us get many open looks for threes.

Our free throw shooting needs improvement. Quickness and effort favors Southern after one quarter.

Searching for a combination that can function together. Didn’t see it tonight. Credit B-C for playing with effort and enthusiasm. It’s a step forward.
