It takes a lot of pressure off Petteway when the others step up like that.

Time to shut the door

Is that about 13 free throws in a row for Shields? That gives us a huge boost.

 

[HuskerNationNick]

33 points, 15/15 FT

Just amazing with time left on the clock!

 

[Minnesota_husker]

If we have serious interest in contending, this is a must win.

The Vault* needs to be rocking. Illinois has talent but isnt deep. Need to have guys attack the hole and get them in to foul trouble. Petteway/Shields gotta be aggressive.

*Are we officially calling the Pin-bank the vault?

I quote myself because I am a great basketball mind....

But seriously great job by Shavon.. played with confidence.

Groce will be getting that Technical shortly

 

[Omaha-Husker]

Incredible how few FG attempts Shields has taken with that scoring total.

 

[NUance]

If this comes down to a free throw contest I think we got it in the bag. Huskers been real good at the line this year.

 

[HuskerNationNick]

Incredible how few FG attempts Shields has taken with that scoring total.

Currently he is 8-12 for FG which is above his average and 2-4 at the 3pt, agreed though, as half of his points are from FT's lol.

That is an insane scoring performance. A lot of guys need 20+ shots to go for 30 on the night.
