First-half thread for NU vs. Nebraska

[lou v]

This is one the Wildcats have to get -- but I have a feeling that I'm going to be writing that a lot this year. Coming off of two straight losses, NU needs to notch a W against one of the surprise teams in the Big Ten this year. The Huskers are 3-0 with wins at Indiana and Maryland already.

We will win by ten or more! I guarantee it!

I think we're trying to conserve our energy for the second half.

I like establishing Pardon in the post early. He's made one and got another very good shot that just rimmed out.

Watson is going to be a problem for McIntosh.

Lumping left the guy wide open!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Lumpkin left the guy open again! Horrible!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Mac playing solid!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Pardon in post is needed! I agree

 

[lou v]

Nebraska is killing NU on the glass -- it's 12-4 Huskers in rebounding.

Mac with two turnovers

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

What a pass by Mac!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Skelly looks great

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

I told you,we are better with Ash out there! He has the speed to handle the exceptional guard play of Nebraska! A couple nice assists by Ash! His defense is what we need most! Hands in the face

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Law is on fire

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Mac is missing everything

 

[ubercat]

We've abandoned our energy conservation program. Good. Especially on D

 

[lou v]

Cats go to the zone and immediately give up an offensive rebound and basket by Jacobson.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Skelly looks good! Good team play by Cats!

 

[lou v]

Northwestern is 5-12 on 3s, Nebraska is 0-5.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Lindsey yes!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Cats by ten!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Love the play by Taphorn!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Pardon is the key! We have an inside game with Derek in there!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

What a joke! We were up by ten and had the ball! Law and Mac turned it over

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

They made the threes,we didn't!

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

We need better defense! You can't let these guys get the shot off! We need bodies in front of the shooters

 

[CatsUnderStars]

WTF happened? I went to get a beer and they up 10?

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Law turned the ball over and it was a huge momentum changer! Law needs to play better defense also! Skelly needed to make that layup

 

[SDakaGordie]

Ash played poor D in this half.

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Blowing at 10 pt lead with a 14-0 Nebby run at the end of the half-Yikes!
The turnover at the end with Nebby hitting a 3 at the buzzer hurt too.

Just hope the Cats put it back together in the second half. We need this win on the road.

Can we just get Wrassler his own containment thread where he can post to his heart's content?
