Nebraska Game Thread

Molly and Kyla look pretty good to me. Not hitting their shots but getting alot of open shots. Good flow which seems to be the
most important thing to get confidence. I feel a little better about our bench.

Plus Hawkeyes.

Whoa there, Gus! I resemble that remark!

Why does that cow have a hole in its side (Nebraska commercial) that everyone is sticking their hand into?

Yep. Seeing lots of nice play and contribs from everybody. This is good.

That in-bound pass to Nurse for the 3 is automatic.

Nice win, but Nebraska is not a good team. We better clean up all the missed uncontested layups. We won't get away with those against Maryland, assuming we get the opportunity to make some against them.

The answer is "fistula."

84-41 final

84-41. I'll take it. It wasn't the prettiest, but there were solid contributions from everyone. The starters got a break for the first time in a bunch of games, and we got to see a lot from the bench. Seeing what we saw from the Frosh tonight, I'm not worried. They need work, as all freshman do, but there's potential in them that I can't wait to see Geno pull to the surface.

Not very crisp, but a 2-fer on the road against a major conference team. I'll take it and move on.

 

[Fairfield Fan]

Why were Napheesa and Gabby in there at the end, and Pheesa taking a jumper? Shouldn't they have been resting?

 

[pvdoggy]

It's not often that an opponent has a better Assists/FG ratio than UConn.

 

[Fairfield Fan]

Oh, I see. At the end of the game, the game tracker goes back to the beginning.

Never mind....

Good game, all benches were performed great

True. But not exactly a "back up the truck and start over" kind of problem. They will be OK.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Saniya's stat line: 8/5/4/3. Nice way to return.

 

[oldude]

Note that Geno never put Danger back in the game after she picked up her 3rd foul in the 1st half. Message being sent.

 

[msf22b]

A little hellter-skelter but

tonight..maybe for the first time:
Katie Lou was Stewie-like
Indomitable, unstoppable, tough on D, stealing balls

Wowsa.

That was really fun - not quite the post game style from TN, but it is cool that some young guys are caring enough to do this I suspect after each game - and they know their basketball.

Loved the fact that the crowd gave a standing ovation at the end of the game - respect from Nebraska - hope their coach can built a team worthy of their fans!
