Nebraska MBB -2.5 vs. Maryland

[Harry Caray]

If he comes back next year, I would say he'll be the best player NU has had since Lue and Piatkowski. I know Venson Hamilton was Big 12 POY, but Palmer can really a team on his back and carry them.

I don't think he'll be back unfortunately. It's his 4th year, so I assume he'll finish his degree this spring. His stock won't get any higher after the run he's been on this year.

 

[schuele]

Two straight foul calls that were nothing more than the officials responding to Turgeon's crybaby act. He is such a whiny douche.

 

[jedihusker]

Did that ball not roll off of the Terp on that lost ball by JPP in transition?

The "lost ball" because the Maryland player shoved his arm into JPJ's midsection?

Good old boy refs. Nothing will be done. That tape needs to go to the league office, and th official suspended that made the call on Jordy. That was ****ing ridiculous.

 

[bigboxes]

There's something in the air tonight. The stars are bright.

Fernando.

I'm sure we just don't understand the complex nuances of what the officials were watching. And Turgeon wasn't really out on the court squealing at the officials - he was just politely asking them what they saw.

 

[HuskAir]

And a no and-1 call on JPP's drive to the hoop? Cmon.

 

[schuele]

Fernando.

You were just late to the Fernando party!

 

[bigboxes]

You were just late to the Fernando party!

Though I never thought that we could lose, there's no regret.

 

[schuele]

Ouch - needed Copeland to finish that dunk.

 

[bigboxes]

Palmer is seriously proving himself among the elite. Wow.

 

[Husker4real]

Boy, we've had chances to stretch the lead a few times, but Maryland just keeps fighting back.

 

[bigboxes]

Jordy is the weakest link.

Yeah I am sure our resident ref excuse maker, super-ref, will be along soon to tell everyone how hard it is and that they are just calliing it straight up.

 

[schuele]

Jordy is the weakest link.

He played okay tonight until he got a couple of crap calls on him.

Sometimes it's ugly watching him and Okeke out there, but NU needs minutes from them. Not necessarily a ton of minutes, but some.

 

[scarletred]

Jordy is the weakest link.

Just needs to play smarter.

 

[bigboxes]

Boy, we've had chances to stretch the lead a few times, but Maryland just keeps fighting back.

Five points is easy to make up. I wouldn't stress it. You make a basket. The other team doesn't covert. You make another. Five points. That's just what the Terps did.

Yeah, his 2nd and 4th fouls were a joke.

 

[bigboxes]

PALMER FOR THREE!

 

[bigboxes]

It would be nice to see this squad come back next year.

 

[Lincoln100]

Please stop showing our bench

 

[schuele]

Watson getting a little too anxious to pull the trigger. What's the hurry?

 

[HuskAir]

Need to put these guys away.

 

[bigboxes]

Man, that should have dropped for Roby.

 

[anon_umk0ifu6vj6zi]

Needed to take a timeout 2 possssions ago and get Palmer in the game. Always wait too long for the media timeout. 2 blown chances. Roby needs to make these count

 

[scarletred]

Need to put these guys away.

Ditto.
Foul out Hueyer too.

 

[kaz36]

Just needs to play smarter.

They need to tell Jordy that he only gets one dribble in the post and then either shoot or pass. Teams know when he puts the ball on the floor that they can get him to turn it over when they collapse on him.

 

[HuskAir]

Cheese and rice, make your free throws.

 

[BigBallerRed]

On one of our classic droughts. Not a good time for this.

 

[scarletred]

Cheese and rice, make your free throws.

FT have costed us so far hope it doesn't make the difference.

 

[BigBallerRed]

Should have NEVER subbed Palmer out. Ballers need to be in the game at crunch time.

 

[bigboxes]

On one of our classic droughts. Not a good time for this.

I can't say there is ever a good time for this. This game can't all be on Palmer. Watson has been missing his shots. This team needs to have ball movement to find the open player.

 

[schuele]

Great hustle by Taylor there. That's a big stop - now they need a bucket.

 

[bigboxes]

Nice grit by the boys. Need to dig this one out. Obviously, make free throws.

 

[anon_umk0ifu6vj6zi]

Waiting too long to get our all-conference level scorer back on the floor better not burn us. Look for Copeland now!

 

[BigBallerRed]

Bailed out with the Roby rebound there.

 

[mwulf]

do you foul here under 10 seconds?

 

[schuele]

Nice board by Roby. Not the guy I wanted on the FT line, but he sank 'em!

 

[bigboxes]

Obviously, make free throws.

Boxes is hot tonight!

 

[anon_umk0ifu6vj6zi]

do you foul here under 10 seconds?

Yes. On a 2
