Game Thread Nebrasketball Game #11: @ #13 Illinois - Saturday, December 13 3:00pm Peacock/NBCSN

[Dr.DrakeRamoray]

We won. And the refs did everything they could to keep it from happening.

I don’t think I’ve laughed this hard in ages, this is objectively hilarious, KP never change

I still can’t believe the start Sandfort had. Can’t believe we stole that kid from Cockeye

 

[ThankGODforWVB]

How absolutely beautifully wonderful fantastically incredibly fabulous!!

I'm 45.....we've never had a better buzzer beater in my life. That I can remember.

Not if you weight for quality of opponent, road game etc.

Biggest shot of my NU fan life

Charles Richardson hit a 25 footer to beat Texas Tech in Lubbock 15-18 years ago.

 

[COYS]

Hate to say it but Essegian injury and Jared Garcia getting more minutes and looking like a dude might be the best thing to happen for this team.

 

[MaxHuskers34]

I feel a 18 ranking coming monday

12

 

[COYS]

Also, Sam Hoiberg becoming one of the best PG’s in the Big 10 is not something I thought I would ever see.

Now I know its early in the conference season .... but I just want you all to savor the fact that we are #1 in the conference right now .....

 

[HuskerChemist]

Did Frager get hurt?

After being predicted to finish 14th

Did Frager get hurt?

No, I don’t think so. Why do you ask?

 

[HuskerChemist]

No, I don’t think so. Why do you ask?

He was on the bench and had a weird looking brace on his knee

Are you saying that was a bigger shot?

TTU was mediocre that year and so was Nebraska. This yrs Ilini is a Final Four pick.

Different positions.

Garcia is getting minutes to spell Berke and Mast. It'll be interesting what happens with Oogie returns as Garcia has earned his minutes the last 2 games.

45.....we've never had a better buzzer beater in my life. That I can remember.

James Palmer hit one in 2018, against Illinois in Lincoln.

Jamar Johnson hit one against #3 Kansas in Lincoln. Circa 93

Hoppen hit one in the 80's.

Shields may have had one too, can't remember if there was any time left or not.

Palmer hit one against Penn State too. I also remember Teddy Buckets getting a last second layup against Penn State to finally get Nebraska's first conference win another year.

Go to post #298 & watch the video.

He had a sleeve on his leg. Looked just fine celebrating.
