***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT NEBRASKA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Mitchell and Christie are 0-10 from the field. Hey guys...PLEASE stop shooting!

I think we're gonna need Cam if we're gonna win this one

No, they are going to have to make some shots to work nebbie out of their doubling down D.

Fox seems to have knocked the rust off. Progressively better as the seasons gone on. Could be a big difference maker if he returns next year and remains healthy. A full offseason after a full season…would be great.

Excited about that as well. It would be surprising to me if he didn't come back. Definitely would hurt.

100%. He can get his own shots and we need him to snap out of the mini slump.

 

[007gopherfan]

3 pts from Garcia, Mitchell, Christie and only down 8 pts....Need to get these 3 going!

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

you want them shooting because if they hit any semblance of their average in the 2nd half, it makes the entire offense open. that's the shot/play they're giving us.

If they don’t make shots we’re done.

Up 8 at halftime against tOSU and looking good, and the game thread was at 3 pages, with page 1 mostly about Battle.

Down 8 in a frustrating game on the road at half and we’re at 6 pages.

I hate this place.

 

[SHGopher]

Have to hope they start dropping. One previous game the perimeter game was dead in the first half. They stayed with it and torched the other team. Hard to know to stick with it but probably have to.

Unless he physically can’t go…he’ll be back. Self proclaimed hoop head. Wants to have a career in basketball. Another year with the Gophers likely helps that goal.

Then piss off

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Thorson!

 

[MUgopher32]

Finally a couple good possessions and Hawkins chucks up a 3

Cant have that

 

[WilliamsArenaGuy]

A. It’s not our night. This sucks.

B. I’m starting to wonder if we will ever win a game in this godforsaken fucking arena

 

[leib0039]

24 min in this is probably one of the worst stretches we've played in a while. Don't even look very competitive. 16 minutes to change that

 

[SHGopher]

Bad call

 

[howeda7]

I think it's safe to focus on NIT-ology.

 

[Bad Gopher]

Payne shying away from contact again. Don't give me that bullshit that he's too assertive. LOL

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Nebraska is just quicker to almost every ball tonight. They sure do play well at home.

 

[WilliamsArenaGuy]

The biggest criticism of Johnson in this game is that Payne needs to sit. Probably would’ve been better off not starting the second half at all. For some reason he cannot play in this game and the refs refuse to give him anything no matter what he does.

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

We just can't get the ball into the post.

It's remarkable that we haven't. That place is fucking kryptonite.

You go ahead and do that. You are one of the most pessimistic people on here.

Yeah, he has only two fouls well into the second half but that hasn't helped us.

 

[Blackhammer]

I love the announcers, OMG they held them to 20 for the half, shit Nebbie scored 28. Not much better boys!

I’ll take 28 it’s quite a bit better.

 

[007gopherfan]

Time for more Fox!

 

[007gopherfan]

Wish the gophers would put the students all long the court...sure helps the atmosphere each possession.

He thrives on irritating people. Best to ignore him.

I don’t have anybody on ignore. If I need to not reply I just don’t.

Small ball time
