Nebrasketball @ St John's

- Start date
1 minute into watching my 1st game of the season and I am already reminded why watching college basketball is so frustrating: THE REFS!!!
McVeigh is a defensive liability. Can only play him when the other team also has a slow white guy he can guard.
He’s not that bad, but he is a match up problem against a team like this. We won’t see much of Jordy IMO.
Might as well at least chuck it the direction of the rim instead of turning it over. We must have 20 turnovers by now. St. Johns is really quick.
Borchardt is playing early in a game? Too bad he can't make a free throw. We're getting killed. St. John's D is just stifling.
Looks like a pretty typical Nebraska basketball team.
Sigh....

Well, these guys look like basketball players, but they don't play that way.
Jordy is a big bodied center. He should be a force. Is there a reason why Nebraska doesn't throw the ball inside to him every time?
First half impressions...we look every bit of the team that was predicted to finish 13-14th in the Big Ten.
St. John's looks tough. Small ball and they can run/shoot/defend
I can tell you. Nebraska gets into a motion set, makes a few passes to the three point line extended with high picks, then the guy who catches at the top of the key takes it to the basket and heaves up a prayer.
That is the offense.
I don't know what is worse. Watching our offensive line try to block or watching Nebrasketball try to do anything offensively or defensively.
I say that because you can run a motion offense with 2 bigs setting picks in the paint, it works, and it takes pressure off the other 3 have to create offense.
Of course, you have to be able to shoot the ball well at the perimeter...

Jordy looks like he's regressed. Copeland can't hit the side of a barn. Somehow Evan Taylor looks like our best player.
He's hit-and-miss. I would like to see him get the ball a bit more, but he's not skilled enough with the ball - not yet anyway - to be the main offensive option.
No, he’s not. He’s a turnover waiting to happen. He may be the biggest disappointment of the season thus far.
Okeke made a dumb play on the goaltend - but I don't see why in the Hell that earned him a seat on the bench. Huskers need someone athletic in there to defend the rim, or the Johnnies are just going to run layup lines all night.
I thought they said in the radio the last time he played St Johns with G’Town he scored 28.
Thanks. I don't watch Nebrasketball much, because, well, we usually suck.
Jordy is big. Looks like he needs a summer with Patrick Ewing or somebody who can teach him how to throw that weight/height around near the rim.
These other guys, just damn. St. John's guys can ball. Our guys, not so much.
Not unathletic though. Some descent looking athletes.
St Johns has some playas. They will kill Crayton this year in the Big East. Long and athletic.
Ol' Doc Sadler playing Michigan tough on the road, tied at 32 at the half. Maybe Hoiberg taught him how to coach offense.
Agree. St. John's is good guys. They play like Golden State, small ball, with shooters/quick defenders.
