The ladies are playing a solid game as an underdog leading 43-42 against a very good Illinios team. They should be able to get an NCAA bid. They are executing toinight and playing together as a team much better than the men have lately.

Announcers going on and on about what a great steal that was by Illinois player….replay shows a slap on the arm no contact with the ball 🤦‍♂️

Great win by the ladies! So impressed by how Williams runs the program. Great outlook for the future.

Did you see how Williams got on them during that timeout when Illinois made that run? Great having a coach that shows passion!

74-70 Huskers win!

Yikes! We have to play UCLA now.

I only watched the end, but nice execution down the stretch. I don’t think Illinois had a FG in the last 5 minutes, so Huskers must have turned up the heat on defense.

Next year the sophomores of Potts and Prince are going to make the ladies fun to watch

We did a better job defending their guard penetration in the fourth quarter.

I've barely followed them at all this year. My loss. I was looking forward to their season, particularly Potts & Prince playing together, but when Potts went down so did my optimism.

They've really had some players step up nicely this year after losing Potts & Weidner(?).

Huskers advance. Glad players took it upon themselves to change up the offense.

Better than going home tonight

I understand why you'd say that, but they definitely fought against Ohio State. However, the Minnesota first half was inexcusable to say the least

 

[schuele]

Good showing tonight. Thought for a while they might pull off the upset, but just too overmatched.

Against one of the #1 seeds in the NCAA tournament this was a terrific effort by the UNL women. An NCAA bid well deserved and I can't wait to watch them next season!

 

[huskerfan66]

Yeah we gave up to much earlier. Should have been ahead but down 9. Made our runs but so did they and then whistles dried up late. We'll be better next year
