Just 5 points 2fg the last 7 minutes doesnt cut as Nebby turning the vice grip

Nebby is a nice balance of offensive capable players while playing very sound defense. Very well coached and disciplined

Its a team we all wish Pike had

Pike is incapable of running that offense

So you think the other teams know we will double the mid screens and never stop? Also remember when in game threads were 15-20 pages long?

I wish we could pass the ball around the floor without throwing the ball directly into a turnover.

Nobody does it as much as us, I expect a turnover a nearly every pass, that Buchanan pass to Zrno that was stolen immediately is our entire season.

Cant even settle for a good attempt with a winding clock, instead Nebraska gets it and scores.

Thats entirely on coaching. This is Eddie Jordan level. Keli must clean house. NIL doesn't fix your fundamental flaws.

Id only want Francis, Powers and Buchanan back. Maybe Dortch.

And the bathrooms closest to the APC are having issues. 5/8 stalls in the ladies room are closed & I'm told the same in the men's room. Per the attendant "someone put plastic in the toilet in the men's room" and screwed everything up. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

We spotted Nebraska at least 10 points off of turnovers. That, and Buchanan’s injury and time out of the game on D are the difference right now.
There is a reason for that. They got pokeaways that Pike was known for. This is a very good team. Its not as close as you think. Our offense is dreadful because of solid Nebby D. 2 fg in 7 minutes

What is Pikes latest fascination with Zrno

19 minutes, no points, is it his lockdown D?

We don’t need that offense.

We need better defense, to not turn the ball over, and to add someone who is capable of scoring the ball in the paint. That player (whether a PF or our center, or ideally both) is not Dylan Grant.

Zrno giving all kinds of room to Hoiberg, a good 3-point shooter. If you can’t stay with him, at least force him inside into help D. Anything but sagging back and allowing a wide open trey.

Zrno and Powers are frosh. They miss assignments and make mistakes. When they play together, one of them is also defending a bigger SF. But our options are limited.
