Hoiskers roll into Seattle as 2 point favorites

[V-Doub]

What a bullshit late whistle 😡

 

[cubsker]

In the bonus, got to make em.

 

[cubsker]

Atta boy, Sam.

 

[V-Doub]

Huge. 7 minutes of free throws.

 

[cubsker]

Essegian on fire tonight

 

[BetterRed]

Essegian!!

 

[huskermania008]

Similar to how I struggle to tell the difference between Bruce Weber and Mr. Haney from Green Acres.

lol. Dude thinks it’s the huskers vs the cornhuskers

 

[V-Doub]

BAANG A RAANG!!!

 

[V-Doub]

Berke!

 

[cubsker]

Beauty from Berke

 

[SomedayHusker]

Do NOT try to shift gears and slow this down right now. We are not a team that can do that

 

[BetterRed]

Nice spin by Berk…took advantage of the size.

 

[cubsker]

Washington has about 20 points in the last 20 game minutes

Amen. Just run the offense.

 

[SomedayHusker]

Fantastic pass, Sam sneaking that into Gary!

 

[cubsker]

💥

Ball Game

 

[mgbreis]

The shooting pixie dust switched teams at half.

 

[SomedayHusker]

Yea Huskies threw in the towel. Dagger by Brice!

 

[BetterRed]

Fantastic second half.

 

[cubsker]

Brice 3 point shooting heating up hopefully going forward.

 

[cubsker]

Couple of big home games next week.

"It's a key time in the game to finish the game."

It's insights like this that keep Bruce Weber on the air.

 

[V-Doub]

Terrible 1st half on all counts. But we’re still the better team, we get our shit together we can still win this.

Are we really the better team? Did you see who they lost to in January? Who can actually hit a jump shot for us on a consistent basis? Again, Williams and Gary have to carry us. Having Gary in foul trouble really hurts given our complete lack of dudes at F. Not saying we can’t come back and win, but based on pure talent, we are not a gimme against anyone in the B10.

You were saying…

 

[cubsker]

What an ass kicking this 2h was

 

[cubsker]

49-25, that's usually about what we do to them in football.

 

[SomedayHusker]

decently loud chants of GBR! Tough win on the road after a hot start for the home team, a very good showing to close it out. Gotta like our odds at home vs. Ohio State on Sunday

 

[BetterRed]

What an ass kicking this 2h was

Just about doubled them in points in the second half.

 

[big red22]

ok this is ridiculous, time for bed

We found our secret... you need to turn off the game and we'll figure things out.

It appears so... ended up 14 pts better

I saw it coming. Tried to get a couple of people to bet on if we would make the tourney.

Lost 4 close games where we just didn't play well, but were one or two plays away from still winning.

 

[Husker4real]

My last post in the thread was the exasperated: “JFC they’re 7 for 7 from behind the arc!!” Then I went to bed.

I was hoping what happened would happen. They had to cool off. UW hit just 3 more treys (out of 18!!). Their overall % dropped below 40% after the hot start, and the veteran Huskers stayed cool and ended up winning in a route. It was nice being on the right side of a 27 point swing.

Great opportunity lies ahead. Even a little margin for error exists, which didn’t seem possible after the losing streak.

I’m back in.

I knew that if Washington is starting that dude that used to play for Nebraska (Briedenbach?)....they can't be very good. I almost felt bad for them.

The shooting pixie dust switched teams at half.

Worster was terrible until he got to the line at the end. He turned the ball over and threw up brick after brick in the first half. I can’t see how he plays as many minutes as he does. Once again Sam was money. Rebounds, steals, defense with some scoring sprinkled in. Brice was tremendous but we would be screwed without Sam. He just plays hard and makes big plays which helps Brice. Our offensive motion in that game was outstanding especially in the second half.

It’s funny how he starts but barely plays.

Well he doesn’t start but he does play. He still sucks.

Either Rollie or Berke has to step up.

People need to quit dogging Worster, Berke, and some of the other guys. They are role players. It's interesting what you credit Sam with as that is what Worster brings to the table as well. He is an excellent ball-handler that we can depend on bringing the ball up the court. That does not seem like much, but when we depend on Brice to expend a lot of energy on offense, it is a big plus. He's also out there scrapping for loose balls, rebounds, and playing solid defense.

 

[Suhrreal]

If Berke does what he did this game the rest of the season, the Huskers will be in great shape. He's a rebounder and defender first, scoring contributor second. I will say he is a little disappointing from a basketball IQ standpoint considering his Euro background.
