We have a better chance of winning this than we did the MSU game.  I think Minnesota is beatable.  Maybe we should just put three guys on the court.

We lose by 15+

NU has been horrible from day one of the Tim Miles era.. yes, I know about the one year blip.

Wonder what team will miles will have tonight. The slow prodding hesitant to shoot team or the free flowing team that scores 80.

They key will be getting them in foul trouble.  They play 9/10 deep, but only 6 do any of the scoring.

  That's hard to do when you take jumpers all game 

 
Let’s hope they remember how to rebound.

2nd/3rd/4th chances killed them against MSU and could happen tonight with Minny’s bigs

 
Make it a rock fight.  Classic Nebraska upset formula.  Refs letting us be pretty physical is a good thing at home.

 
One wishes the lead was a little bigger than 8 after getting their bigs in foul trouble.

Must continue to attack the rim in the second and for the love of Joe McCray, stop the ball in transition.  Rebounding gets better as well and look out

 
We are playing much better.  Hustling and running a bit which is nice to see.  Gopherhole is pissed about the refs, I don't blame them.  They've called MN pretty tight but we've got away with some stuff.  Ultimately we can't control that so just come out tough in 2nd half and grab a W 

 
Fun game to watch, the team is playing really well.

Just out of curiosity, why isn't McVeigh getting much playing time this year?  Last year he was a nice 3 point shooter off the bench.

As Omaha Husker says his defense is horrid.  What he may give you from beyond the arc(6-9 points) he easily gets torched for that many.  He gets abused when posted up, easily beaten off the dribble and routinely will get lost when trying to double

This score is way closer than how the flow of the game feels

 
The rotation they are using tonight is working great, I wouldn't change a thing.  I figured it was because the guys they have are playing better.  But on nights when they struggle from three, he can help get some points.

 
When they push tempo and attack the rim this team can look sooooo good.  The amount of poor contested shots is less and the ball movement is more productive
