Both Harris and Epps need 20 minutes on the floor each and Rogers needs 10. We need to save our energy as we are only playing with 8. Harris just makes plays and Epps scores. Rogers is a garbage man who collects rebounds and plays good D.

Walker vs Dane. Who will get two quick fouls. Harris has stay on the court? Watch for foul disparity tomorrow.

Brad is “elite” at inserting “elite” in his pressers

I can tell the win against wisky has calmed BU down by his lowering of the " UM " rate back to that 16-17 per minute level.......One " UM " every 3.5 seconds is a good rate for BU , as anything around the 20 " UM's " per minute show's an elevated risk of a slippage of the tongue and ensuing higher decibel response's............also , he tends to ramble 3-4 " UM's" together which means he is buying time to make his next point of view which usually means about 8-10 seconds of unemcumbered non " UM's " being brought forth.......

Analytics being the hot topics these days , I am fully committed to staying on top of this vastly important part of today's BB scheme........I really really am..

carry on my wayward friends........................

I've watched parts of 4-5 games that nebby has played this year..
This is gonna be a tougher game than previous years.
Their center Walker is playing better than ever and they have a blonde headed freshman who is a good all around player....
I hope the yesterday team play Illini show up instead of the psu/ mildcat game Illini mentality......
LETS GO ILLINI !!!!!

Nebraska 65-Illini 57

This can only happen if the Husker basketball team plays the Illini football team. And maybe not even then.

But seriously... the mood in Huskerland is much brighter now that the football team finally seems to be on a recovery path under its new leader. That mood has been missing for the last 20 years and after several false-restarts.

Some of those Good VIbrations might rub off on their roundballers. So the Illini have to be their Top 20 version and not the Penn State-Missouri-Northwestern version.

One thing I just noticed and is a bit concerning ... I am REALLY hoping Wisconsin proves a turning point, because we have alternated between wins and losses since Syracuse represented our second win in a row on November 29th:

L at #22 Maryland
W vs. #2 Texas (New York, NY)
L vs. Penn State
W vs. Alabama A&M
L vs. Missouri (St. Louis, MO)
W vs. Bethune-Cookman
L at Northwestern
W vs. #14 Wisconsin

First of all, that really shows the importance of that Wisconsin win ... however, it also shows how important stringing together an ACTUAL winning streak is during this stretch:

at Nebraska
vs. Michigan State
at Minnesota
vs. Indiana

We are MORE than capable of winning all four of those games and riding a 5-game winning streak before OSU comes to town and we travel to Madison. Losing in Lincoln and "bouncing back" with a win vs. Michigan State might not be good enough. We seriously need this one to establish legitimate momentum that we have not had in several weeks. At this point, the thing I worry about the most with our guys is confidence/mental toughness, and you get that by winning Big Ten road games. Let's do this!
