ScottyIce Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Was that banked in 3 on Miles coaching strategies as well? Quote Link to comment
seaofred92 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 that is the right call unfortunately I think. Not enough there to overturn it. Don't give up a good look at 3 here and don't foul and we will be fine Quote Link to comment

seaofred92 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 It just doesn't make sense why you are doubling on the perimeter and leaving their best player wide open for a 3. I mean literally zero sense. Double the post fine but why the hell are you doubling the perimeter there? That just flat out doesn't make any sense 1 Quote Link to comment
seaofred92 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Also note how efficient Wisconsin has been the last 5 mins of regulation and OT. They don't give away points There is your difference in the game. Morrow misses 2 FT's with Nebraska up 2 Wisconsin makes a 3 and that will do it. Quote Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Another dynamic end of game/set play drawn up there Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Nebraska has had a ton of success double teaming tonight. McVeigh was even there to help. Sure you can pinpoint a couple plays on defense as being costly, but anyone that wants to blame D for this loss is crazy. TO Missed FT Missed lay-up range shots. Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 What I don't understand is the drive by Tai at the end. Happ is in and there isn't a crease. Plus, Tai has been pulling up for jumpers all game long. Wasn't the best idea by Tai. Quote Link to comment
B.B. Hemingway Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Miles is as bad of an X's-O's coach on this level as you can imagine. End of regulation, and the end of OT was a mess. You could say the samething about the end of damn near every game. I like him, but I can't see Timmy getting more than one more year. Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Ouch from Gard. "Can't be worse than tonight." You realize your opponent had 20+ turnovers tonight, right Greg? Quote Link to comment

Sure you can pinpoint a couple plays on defense as being costly, but anyone that wants to blame D for this loss is crazy. TO Missed FT Missed lay-up range shots. It is all situational though. You have zero need to help off of Nigel Hayes with 18 seconds left in the game up by 2 when you're 23 feet from the basket. It just doesn't make any sense. I'm all for the doubling in the post- it obviously kept Nebraska in the game tonight. But it was totally and completely unnecessary at that point in the game and it wound up costing Nebraska the game. All of this is irrelevant if Morrow makes his FT's. But its Nebraska and this is what we do- we don't shut the door on teams when we have the opportunity. Its why we've lost 3 games by 1 point this season, blew the Clemson game when we had the lead late in the second half, and even some of the wins (Purdue, Dayton) have been more about surviving our massive amount of mistakes rather than us truly closing the door on them. Its frustrating and I don't know that its all on the players- wtf exactly was Miles trying to accomplish out of that last time out with 17 seconds left? Team looked completely confused. This is a game that Nebraska should have won and what's frustrating as a fan is that this is the fifth time I've said that about a Nebraska basketball game this season. Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 We outshot them from the floor 40% to 36% We outshot them from on 3s 43% to 36% We outrebounded them 50-37 Yet we still find a way to lose because we turned it over 22 times. Quote Link to comment
seaofred92 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Even with the 22 turnovers the most frustrating statistic for me tonight is Nebraska from the free throw line: 15-24 for 62.5% You can't shoot that low of a percentage from the line at home. You just can't. I don't care if Morrow has missed the past 7 games, 1-5 from the free throw line including 0-2 at a time when Nebraska needed at least 1 is just ridiculous. Quote Link to comment
