I assume the B10 thinks they can feed a bad/tired Nebraska team to the bubble teams while Michigan won’t be forced to risk any losses on short rest? Great conference.
just bad defense tonight, not closing out on shooters. probably tired legs. am guessing this one gets out of hand.
our baseball schedule came out and it's beyond idiotic as usual we can't play non con games but we can travel down to Texas to play Purdue 4 times, because why not. then up to Minneapolis to play 2 different teams, neither of which are Minnesota, in a football stadium. after a home series with Rutgers, we immediately travel out to Piscataway where it seems like Rutgers gets to host a pod of games despite having junior college level baseball facilities. it's too dangerous to let us play any midweek games against Creighton or UNO but we can fly out to NJ to play the team we just played 5 days earlier I now understand why it took them so long to put this together, it must have taken a great deal of effort for Warren and his hobgoblins to come up with something so nonsensical.
I was just joking with you. I like hearing/reading what people have to say even if it's mostly the same. He got a shot last night and bricked it. I was really hoping to see him drain it and we could get a consistent 3 point threat going.
When Lakes checked in I was going to say Fred must read TMB. He was 1/3 and the one he made helped Nebraska cover at the end when combined with Webster’s late layup.
Sadly we finally shot OK from the line going 10/12 (83%) and 13/28 (46%) from three. Hung with them (tied) on the glass too. Just another day where we got sloppy, 11 turnovers to their 4.
Last night he didn't take a maybe 25% contested 3 and drove to the elbow. Made a move to get the defender in the air, then faded backwards and airballed it.... I was excited to see him make the move until I saw the result.
I agree this is shitty, but I'd like it if we were the bubble team in the conference. It's not like we're going to make the tourny, so why not grind and help the rest of the league look better. We get experience (assuming some games would have just been cancelled) in a tough situation. Just got to Fred's answer to the Michigan. He basically said the same thing, but more elegantly.
Oh yeah, I don’t disagree with why the B10 is doing it, it’s just kind of lame they continue to hide behind caring about COVID/safety while making one team do it, but protecting another.
The "when does spring ball start lol" part of our fanbase that's butthurt people defend Hoiberg and not their beloved Frost trigger the fuck out of me.
Sipple is already setting the table for excuses. He said on Benning's radio show that you can't blame Frost for the top two kids because Gayle Sayers and Larry Station didn't come to Nebraska and the Burke LB might be undersized. The next two in the rankings are TE's and we took 3 last year. He'd be fine getting the #5 in the state Hausman from Columbus. Said that would be a good haul. The hypocrisy of guys like Sip is what drives me crazier than the coaching incompetence.
I can't muster to be rustled by Sip because he's long proven to be a hack. He'll scrub the nuts of whomever occupies North Stadium. I'm definitely still mad about the coaching incompetence though. gbr nfm
