Nebraska-Creighton week

[c2o]

McDermott got a fat head.

 

[RealHusker]

I'm not worried...Once Creighton stretches this out to about a 25 point lead, NU will settle in and go toe-to-toe.

 

[mwulf]

root for them both its really easy...except for today where it just sucks

 

[dinglefritz]

Also McDermott working over Miles early again. Not a surprise there. Going to need a run

another missed travel on Creighton that results in a jump ball....

 

[dinglefritz]

There we go. Take it to the rack.

 

[bigboxes]

People like winners. Creighton wins so Omaha people hop on the bandwagon. When we cant break 5 points 10 minutes into the game. i dont blame people

I don't respect bandwagon fans. But you're right. People like winners.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

Cut it to 5. Need to get the crowd back in it.

 

[TheNewNU]

Looking more like a basketball game now

 

[dinglefritz]

Cut it to 5. Need to get the crowd back in it.

Gill is not a smart player.

 

[c2o]

McDermott's head is so fat his chin needs a kickstand.

Just like the moron on 1110 that claims to be a Husker fan AND a Jayhawk fan. Would he root for Jayhawk football. No way. Simply a bandwagon fan.

We're screwed. Miles is working him over right now.

 

[TheNewNU]

Gill is not a smart player.

His transfer year was used to do a lot of things other than play basketball

 

[frankluv]

Gill is not a smart player.

Has not proven yet that he is a PLAYER.

 

[newAD]

In prior years this would have kept snowballing. Very impressed with how they responded when down 10 early.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

Getting Patton in foul trouble would be huge

 

[jedihusker]

Can someone explain to me what the point of the semi circle under the hoop is if they never use it properly? Tai got called for a charge when the Creighton defender was clearly in the zone.

I thought the exact same thing.

Because the officials suck?

 

[dinglefritz]

Now we see why Roby's minutes have been limited. Bad defensive play followed with a brick.

 

[bigboxes]

Well, they need to stay focused and not try to do it all by themselves.

 

[c2o]

Catholics

 

[dinglefritz]

Catholics

 

[RealHusker]

Definitely didn't see this coming the way the game started and the way NU typically manages Creighton. Big opportunity now for NU.

 

[newAD]

Best defensive performance in the last 10 mins under Miles vs CU.

 

[huskerbaseball13]

Shot like shit again...only down 1. I'll take it

 

[Sooner_or_Later]

Told you all Huskers win this thing by 8. Ye of little faith. Creighton would be a bottom half team in the Big 10.

 

[bigboxes]

Nice work in the first half. Wish NU had a Patton though.

 

[GretnaShawn]

Tschigmanananananna looks promising. He works hard.

 

[kaz36]

Nice block by Roby to end the half. Young man needs to hit the weights and get some confidence. If he develops, he will be a player.
I had to laugh at this though.

Is Wisconsin a bottom half big ten team?

 

[dinglefritz]

Came out really tight. Very tentative with their offense to start. Glynn Watson needs to touch the ball every time down the court.

 

[kaz36]

Last years Husker team would have packed it in when they were down 14-2. Nice way to battle back in the last 10 minutes. It helps when you have a couple fearless guards like Webster and Watson to keep you in it.

 

[jedihusker]

Because the officials suck?

To be fair, I've been a season ticket holder for four years now, and I can count on one hand the number of well officiated games I've seen (actually can't think of any right now, but I'm sure there have been a few). At least they actually called Creighton for fouls, though they could have probably called twice as many. They've been particularly terrible on player possession fouls. Tai gets called for a blocking foul while standing near mid-court, not moving; then Glynn Watson Jr gets called for a charge when the Creighton player was clearly moving along with him.

Exactly. Creighton certainly appears to be getting the benefit of the doubt on most of the calls..I guess when you're opponent is in the top 10 and you aren't that happens.

 

[Harry Caray]

Getting Foster and Patton in foul trouble was huge. Going to be tough to stop them in the 2nd half.

 

[headcard]

3rd on Webster, not good.

 

[dinglefritz]

Looks like we're going to have to just let them drive the lane or we'll get a foul called on us.

 

[c2o]

McDermott's head is so fat it takes him until 10 to get 5 o'clock shadow.
