Game Thread Nebrasketball Game #21: @ #3 Michigan - Tuesday, January 27th, 6:00pm Peacock

[Baron Winnebago]

Fuck, but Nebraska just showed America that they'll come at you Monty Python Black Knight-ing with a shank and you better come correct

 

[MaxHuskers34]

Also, Nick Stauskas is an embarrassment to BBall analysts everywhere

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Michigan coach is a hardcore douche

He has high pitched voice. Mich is a bunch of frauds.

Had the lead the whole game and the refs decided naw your good we are going to take this away

That was a fucking mugging. We took what, 3 free throws the entire game. Give me a break. I am so impressed with this effort. Fuck that announcer though. Any AP voter who watched that game should jump the Huskers over Meetchicken.

 

[Ext. 55]

The result is what the league wanted. That’s why it was called that way. We would’ve had to beat Michigan and the refs away. Very tough to do, especially with Frager and even bigger Mast out. Why was Mast out?

Flu

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Berke missing those bunnies killed us

Refs would have made up for it.

 

[Flabio]

Fuck that. Bullshit call after bullshit call down the stretch.

Have you watched any NBA? Game is not close then the refs jump in a bunch of free throws happen and it’s a close game down the wire just like this game. Exactly the same. It’s not a sport it’s controlled entertainment.

Hoiberg out coached that guy all game. We played without 2 players who play meaningful minutes and had them on the ropes until our legs gave out.

 

[Pepe Silvia]

We can still clinch the title right?

we would techically need UM to lose at least one more since they have the tie-breaker, if we won out.

Michigan still has to play MSU twice, @ Illinois and @ Purdue. 3 losses will probably win the conference

 

[BIGSTICK67]

Bitchigan and their douche fans and the B1G and their douche refs can fuck right off...helluvan effort by Fred and the guys tonight, let's get healthy and kick the shit out of the FIBs Saturday.

Pretty much. So much that you received 69 likes from me. Self righteous conference to go along with the Michigan fan base.

 

[iruletheskool]

I hate losing like that.

Two big time starters. Mast was the bigger loss as he could’ve taken advantage of pulling their bigs outside and away from the basket.

This actually tracks. First NBA game ever this past weekend. Lakers came storming back. Lots of fouls and stupid turnovers. Game sucked honestly.

They're good, but not near as good as I thought.

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Yup. Credit to Michigan. They knew they had a ref advantage and exploited it badly

Fixed it

They manufacture a lot of last second shots and drama which drives ratings. It’s all about ratings.

 

[PonyBoy]

Cale's 10+ minute streak comes to an end. 😞

One of gutsiest team performances I can recall in some time.

 

[Ironwardog]

Refs literally kept Michigan in the game the last 4 minutes. Absolutely pathetic display from the BIG’s A team

My problem wasn’t necessarily with the calls against us, it was the LACK of calls against Michigan when we had guys getting knocked down all game.

 

[Husker_in_OK]

Sucks we lost but man that was a respectable loss on the road vs a top ranked team without 2 of our main scorers.

Lot of season left. We’re legit.
