Nebrasketball Game #17 - @ Indiana: Monday, January 14 - 5:30 (FS1)

Michigan State game is going to have one heck of a crowd. There is some confidence back. Great road win to slap on the resume.

 

[ColoradoHusk]

That’s a Quad 1 win right there. Plus the margin of victory will help in the NET rankings.

I’ll give Timmy some credit tonight.  He saw the zone was effective and knew he had to try to protect his guys with foul trouble and he actually stuck with it.  As opposed to other times where he curiously abandoned it in the same scenario.

Defense won this one.  And did it against a very good/efficient offensive team.

will enjoy it, but know Thursday will be a much different monster coming into PBA

 

[TonyStalloni]

I was impressed with G Watson tonight.  He hit big shots, played decent defense, operated as the floor general and stole the ball while nearly laying down.  Great night Glenn.

 

[BigRedBuster]

He’s not in there to run an offense through him.  He knows it, Miles knows it, his teammates know it, everyone on this board sans one person knows it.

he knows his role and does it VERY well.  He’s there to eat minutes by setting very solid wide screens for the guys who need to get to the rim, rebound and body up opponent hits.  Any scoring is a bonus and even Tanner knows that.  Everyone knew that BEFORE the year

Again he played HUGE tonight.  Moreso considering he could easily had bitched out because of the tooth issue

Yep. Tanner has been playing his roll very well off the bench. I’m one that never thought he would be contributing like this. 

If he’s out for MSU it’s going to hurt.

Lol. Not on person took the “Nebraska wins by double digets” option.

Because you'd have to be psychic or crazy to make that pick based on every thing the Huskers had done on the road recently.

Big win tonight. Now they just need to play with tje same urgency on Thursday.

 

[MileHighHusker]

Good win despite the Roby foul trouble. Great to see Watson step up and Palmer get seven assists. Thursday is going to be fun. Wish I could be there.

Honestly I think the win tonight will enable NU to play loose and free, as there won’t be a ton of pressure to beat Michigan State. The win would be great, but getting 1 win this week was what NU needed, and that’s been done.

While it's been fashionable to pick at the defects in this team, it might be productive to remember that (during a challenging schedule), all of the losses have been away from home (3 Roadies and 1 neutral) against ALL RANKED opponents...

Preface, it has been bad both ways..BUT

This officiating crew has been baffling.  Never seen so many drives where a guy gets hit from multiple players get no called and then the smallest of touches gets the whistle.  Let the posts beat on each other on one side of the floor and then a touch call after the ball is reversed to the other side.

I’m all for letting guys play, but this game has been interesting to say the least

Ever since the score was 26ish - 9 ish the officials decided that a C effort would be good enough
