It sucks that your positive was also a negative. The defense was decent, but the breakdowns and the 3-pointers kept Illinois looking invincible. I know teams will have off-shooting nights, but all of the airballs and shots barely hitting the rim was a little disconcerting. I understand Nebraska isn't 'there' yet, but at one point I started thinking about when I used to play 'Mike Tyson's Punchout' on the Nintendo against 'Glass Joe.' I remember I almost had to try to let him win when I understood how easy it was to beat him. I don't know, maybe not the greatest reference in the world, but to me this was a very winnable game for NU, and we let them off the hook.
