What the heck is wrong with Cady today?

Somebody help me with the attendance numbers. Does Nebraska count butts in seats as opposed to tickets sold? Don't some of the schools that claim high attendance actually just count tickets sold (which could be a package deal with men's basketball) but usually only have several hundred in attendance?

Wow, unbelievable.

WTH are we doing on the inbounds? At least throw it all the way down the court and not right to tOSU under the basket!!!!

WHAAAAAA!!! But but but we are OSU and we're supposed to win!!!

Any chance Brianna Craig transfers from KState to the Huskers?

WHEN we make it back to PBA, it should be a no-sit game! Pack the house and roar non-stop for 40 minutes!

Shows how different things are at the high schools in Lincoln. I can think of one in particular that should have fired their coach last year but are still letting him stink things up. What were her antics on the sideline? I have seen them play multiple times and didn't notice anything too outrageous, and I know of a lot of current players who love playing for her.

Interesting. And does anyone know what is going on with Bri Craig there?

Wow. We are not playing well at all. Looking like Iowa wants this more.

Announcers said we are 4th seed no matter the outcome tomorrow.

Ibis is a long jumper that has gone to state track the past few years.

Akin-Otiko also won the long jump, and she set a state record in the 200. She was also Gatorade Track and Field athlete of the year. Just remembered that Benson moves down to class B next year. Could we see a Benson vs Pius X final at state? Akin-Otiko really needs to work on those free throws.

I would say Okin-Otiko is Laudermill fast. But Simon isn't as fast as T, but above average speed for a girl her height.

I believe I heard them say Nebraska, Creighton, Arizona State, Stanford, and I can't remember the rest.

I like Akin-Otiko, too, and if she decides to play college basketball I would like to see her in a Husker uniform. BUT - I'm hoping she chooses track over basketball. She is such a special track athlete I would hate to see her step away from it.

I really hope we get Ibis. She has an impressive list of offers, though, hard to turn down Stanford.

I see Bluder watching in the stands. She may have nightmares tonight if we keep playing like this.

The Kissinger girls have played on the same club team with Jess Shepard for quite some time. And Jess gets a lot of attention on defense, leaving those girls with wide open shots under little or no pressure. I feel these girls have been over rated for quite some time. Nice girls, nice family, but I think there could be some struggles in college. Sadie Murren also played with them for a while, and she looked fantastic knocking down threes back then. But now she's at the end of her sophomore year and isn't getting a single meaningful minute. Maddie will continue to improve and has better speed than a lot of girls we see in this state. She's not KK Houser fast, but she is definitely above average. I would like to see Chloe Akin-Otiko play tonight, will probably switch back and forth between the Husker game and Bellevue West game. No one in the state has Chloe's speed, and she gave Jess Shepard fits a year ago in the championship game. This year she may give Ibis fits.

I think that they are very good 3 point shooters. However, I have always felt they are slow on defense and that is why there was so much foul trouble today. If they are standing wide open they can knock down the shot, but given that they couldn't keep up defensively against a team with little or no college recruits, I have my doubts about their success in D1. And for people that said Minden could beat most of the top class A teams, I highly doubt it.

Tune into NET to watch the finals of girls state basketball. I believe Maddie Simon and her teammates play at 1pm. Unfortunately I think Kiana Ibis' game overlaps with the Husker game by quite a bit. Here is the bracket: http://nsaahome.org/textfile/bask/gbpair.pdf

Tremendous opportunity for our ladies that may have just gotten a bit easier! But first, we need to take care of business tonight!

I've convinced myself that it's OK to cheer for Iowa because it's more like cheering against Purdue.

Is it wrong of me to cheer for Iowa right now?

Wow, OSU has blown a decent lead and are only up by 11 now with around 3:30 left.
