I will give them props.. When they get down they are able to claw their way back into it. We are not getting blown out as bad. Better talent, of course, is the reason behind that. We just need miles to do a better job in these close games.

There was a point midway through the second half where it looked like the distraction caused by Jordy Tshimanga’s sudden departure had gotten to Nebraska’s players against Penn State on Friday night.

But trailing by as many as 16 points in the second half, the Huskers were able to rally back and send the game into overtime. The comeback would fall short in the end, however, as jumper by Tony Carr with 2.7 seconds left sealed a 76-74 victory for the Nittany Lions

While Nebraska’s ability to fight back and send the game into extra time was admirable, it didn’t lessen the sting one bit for head coach Tim Miles and his team.

The loss drops NU to 12-7 overall and 3-3 in Big Ten Conference play.

“It’s really disappointing that we come out with an opportunity to win a game like this and we just don’t come out with fire until we’re down 16 points midway through the second half,” Miles told the Husker Sports Network.

I can hope Miles would take the 1-3-1 that worked well and incorporate more trapping.  The athleticism and length that is on the floor when Roby is in could be SO effective.

That first one on duby looked to be a terrible call. I wonder why they don’t make that reviewable like they do if a toe is on the line for three pointers. Then wasn’t there another one where a penn state guy flat out grabbed the rim when the ball was up there to pop it out?

 
Yeah...PSU basketball is totally known for getting all the calls at home.  It’s ehy the have such a great record
