I wear some red boxer briefs for big games.

Yeah, got to that score a little differently than I had anticipated. By far the closest I’ve been in one of these things.

I'd love to be wrong and see us go 14-4!

I realized with around 8 minutes left when Cook was still killing us inside that Okeke didn't see the floor at all. I know his minutes are very limited, but I was surprised he didn't get a shot at slowing him down inside. Other than that and a couple sloppy passes this was a good performance all around.

Minnesota was #14 when we beat them. It was a feather in the cap at the time. And this could be a feather too, just one with more staying power. Let’s get it done!

I swore I remembered I us mixing it in occasionally and it leading to a couple miss matches and forced shots late in the shot clock. Maybe it was just good switching on screens that led to the mismatches. Either way, I think our ability to disrupt timing in this game can be effective as it was against Michigan, just need to disrupt on the inside maybe more so than on the perimeter the way they work inside to out at times.

I am watching these football games today, but I am thinking about tomorrow night. I think our 1-3-1 can frustrate them for many of the reasons it frustrated Michigan, but I watched their game yesterday and they seem to rely a lot on interior and inside to outside passing that I think our normal doubling on their big men can take away or at least make more difficult. Rebounding is going to be a chore either way. I do think we can keep their scoring in check enough to have more than a decent chance. What we can’t do is let any sort of run they make take us out of it mentally, because they will probably find a way to put together decent strings of production.

Well, for sure no redshirts. Was that certain already?

Maybe with that margin of victory the computers would start respecting us. That's a thing right, needing computers to like us?

You are freaking out. Man.

Wagner did as much after the whistle there as Taylor did after the whistle in the first half on that technical. And that is my first officiating gripe of the night.

You know I used to get really nervous and even too upset at times, but man, as a whole Nebrasketball only has things to gain so I've been trying to just be positive. Right now we have nothing to lose so no reason to be nervous.

How I'm feeling after that first half. Go for it! Go for it!

Man when we make meaningful cuts, screens and passes we're tough to defend.

Nope. Just really excited to see the energy. I wore my HHC shirt to work today in Gopher territory, I know this game is so important to our post-season chances/placement, and it's just nice to see us come out playing like we know we need it.

Passing lanes!

There it is! Nice look Jordy!

Jordy entrance? My stream must be behind, I'm still saying "Duby" on that block.
