ILLINI VS HUSKERS 6:30 FS1 (-4.5)

Nebby on a 6 game losing streak so we will see which team shows.

Last 5 common opponent Maryland, they lost by 3, we lost by 21. They can be fully capable but I would expect us to win the game.

Nebraska has a huge differential in points scored vs points allowed. A low scoring game is not to our advantage. Fortunately, Nebraska can't shoot but we can't either.
We should win the game with rebounding, assuming nobody picks up 2 quick fouls. Rebound those missed 3s and score 75+ points.

The point differential in conference games only.

Our offense is abysmal. This game is brutal basketball.
Looks like shirts and skins at lunchtime at the Y.
1-13 from three.

Man why can we not figure out that driving the ball initially will A) get us some great looks against a subpar team, B) Open up the 3 Pt shooting more for us...

No we have to go 2-16 and still can't figure this out. We keep doing this type of game planning, we ARE NOT "built" for a long run this year. You cannot live and die by the 3 if you are having games like this and NOT mixing things up to get scoring going....over what 5 minutes without a FG??

DGL is the ONLY aggressive driver on this team...White is there but comes up short many times. At least DGL gets it in his head I am going to the rim and does!!! Best player for us right now imo.

Wow

Humrichous with no points and 3 starters with 10 total.

I think the concern is they have had plenty of time to prepare a game plan with this roster without a post.

They thought they could roll the balls out and win.

Need to make adjustments.
In bad extended shooting slump from  three and may simply just be a mediocre 3 point shooting team.

We go as our defense and shooting go. We gave up 40 to a team that can't score and we're not shooting.

Those last two by dunks by Williams to end the first half were inexcusable defense. They fell for the same fake handoff play twice - one of them after coming out of a timeout. Shows you where are heads are at tonight.
