smelly line. Georgetown I heard is playing without 2 of their starting bigs.

I’m staying away from any of these Crown games till at least Saturday..

 

[PvilleHuskerTim]

My suggestion: just watch the game tonight and think happy thoughts that we get another game in. There will be times we look bad. Gary will fire a couple rainbow 3s and airball them. Sam will look average at PG and penetrate the lane and get stuck. Essegian will force some 3s. Williams will get 20+, most of which will be on his own. I could go on if you want. Just breathe, eat popcorn, and have a few beers.

 

[cubsker]

GBR. Might as well win another one.

Georgetown blows. Feasted on non-con cupcakes then stunk it up in big East

So just like Nebraska in the non conference and the big ten.

Yes but the line still looks odd to me. I think NU has enough to win this one outright.

 

[SickOfPractice]

Hustling up & down the court early on. I like it.

 

[mgbreis]

Just enjoy watching Williams play one more game. What a player.

 

[mgbreis]

Sam shooting every time he touches it. MmmmmKaaaaayy.

False! Just did a kamikaze mission down the lane and turned it over trying to pass.

 

[PvilleHuskerTim]

Georgetown has no bigs. We should have 85% of our shots in the lane or short jumper. Only Williams should be allowed to shoot 3s, unless Essegian gets hot.

 

[mgbreis]

We're just being stupid on offense. They look like they're trying to reenact an NBA all star game.

 

[Zeke2005]

Yes

 

[schuele]

Playing better with Ulis in the game.

Not sure if that’s praise or a cry for help, but true nonetheless.

Though G Town has a first year coach and had 9 wins last year

I still can't believe that's his jumpshot

True, but it doesn’t matter that much if they don’t guard you and give you a 20-foot cushion.

 

[schuele]

Cooley cried his way to that call. Total flop.

 

[cubsker]

Good defensive half. Little sloppy with the ball.

 

[V-Doub]

If we decide to play up to our capability we win this by 25. If…

And if we played up to our potential we would have won a game in the big dance. Sort of ticks me off seeing them tear it up in this tournament after they sucked the end of regular season but it’s a trait of Fred’s teams here.

 

[mgbreis]

 

[cubsker]

Next year, I'm going to Vegas to watch us in the Crown!

 

[cubsker]

We have only guy, maybe two, that can dribble into a shot and make it.

 

[cubsker]

Jacobson is a poor man's Thor.

You do realize ASU and Georgetown are bad teams at baseline, both playing without 3+ starters against us?

 

[jteten]

Hoyas without their 3 best players. This should be a blowout.

 

[mgbreis]

Good thing GT basically has no interest in rebounding.

 

[Sodakred]

FS1 must be desperate for content

 

[Harry Caray]

Gus Johnson went from calling March Madness games, to having to call the games at this tournament

He’s in Vegas, gonna bet he’s enjoying himself just fine.

Attendance will increase from 27 to 28 fans!!

It’s about the effort the Huskers are putting out. All over the court, balling out. Show up to any of the last 5 reg season games like that and things would be different. Instead they are flexing in front of 2 dozen in the Vegas crowd. I’m unimpressed

 

[schuele]

Jacking up a pair of threes with a 10-point lead and 20 on the shot clock must have suddenly become a gritty, gutty, coach-on-the-floor thing to do.

 

[SickOfPractice]

81-69 Huskers win

Most enjoyable game I've watched since early season. Let's go ahead and win this inaugural trophy. 👑

 

[huskerfan1414]

Im enjoying this way too much.

 

[Harry Caray]

So why didn't Jacobsen play all year?
