Nebrasketball Game #18 - Michigan State: Thursday, January 17 - 7:00 (FS1)

Miles could have easily stressed getting Roby the ball and clearing out for him to take Ward off the dribble.   Especially seeing Palmer continue to struggle. 

 

Again exploit advantages you have.

We put up a good fight but Sparty is just too good dagnabit.

We can beat this team,  but we can shoot 10% from the field.  Their star showed up,  ours did not.

I don't know that I trust Roby to consistently finish off the dribble.... More shots, and sets for Allen, though...

Now Palmer makes a shot

This was their best chance.  The monster that is MSU will only be better with Langford back and playing at home at the end of the year

I really liked what JPJ did against Indiana the other day and if he can play like that I don't think we need him to score 20+ every game, but yeah he didn't have a good night.

There is no timeline for him & he will need to get into game shape.

Out rebounded by 15, zero bench points and terrible from 3 point land. Other than that, not as bad as it could've been.

He gets going and his confidence grows and he plays better, see Iowa game.  Other bigger picture thing is making award work far more on defense and high chances of picking up fouls on a guy that only helps you when he’s on the bench.

 

definitely agree on the Allen part though

[The Murphinator]

What is going on?

[The Cornfather]

Hold up here a second...

Our best chance, is what I meant.... I'd be thrilled, but don't see that W coming to fruition.

Biggest series of events was when Palmer ran to save the ball and it dropped to Watson in the lane, we get nothing from the trip and then MSU I think drilled a 3 extending the lead to 7 or 8. Showing some fight though in the last minute.
