Didn't see that one coming, especially with UN playing back-to-back days with only 6 guys. Just our luck we ran into a hot team on a mission. FWIW, MD is ranked and lost by one more point than we did.
Nebraska Smokes Maryland
- Thread starter RU-ROCS
- Start date
But how could they with only 6 scholarship kids and two walk ons?
Actually Nebraska beat Iowa as well during their 3 game winning streak.
Does everyone feel better now?

If Rutgers had a scorer like Parker, their won/loss record would have been far better and they would have defeated Nebraska or had a first round bye.
Aren't you guys seeing the pattern yet? Next time you guys are so skeptical about our unhappiness with our coach, remember this game. We have two NBAers on the roster.
Same old story...
Wow. I'm shocked. And a little pissed that we missed a major major opportunity
Not sure about the “you guys comment” as I am very happy with Coach Pike.
Another reason why the outrage last night was over the top on this board.
If you're going to continue to repeat your drivel constantly, get player names right.

Maryland would have played better, bigger, against us..... would have been tough to get past them
When you have seniors like Palmer and Watson - who have cajones - and who are playing for a pro contract somewhere - the will to earn the contract can not be overlooked. Corey Sanders esque from last year.
So, are we better off with Tim Miles keeping his job or with him being replaced? We're moving up the totem pole, improving yearly... Nebraska is a team, along with Northwestern and a few others, that may fall to/stay at the bottom of the conference. What Miles job status benefits us?

Wow, thats crazy. How the hell did fernando not just completely take this game over?
If we had 1 more guy care at all last night we’d be in the quarters against Wisconsin who we led by 10 at their place this year
He’s a Maryland fan I think and referring to turgeon.
Third year in a row that our team is one and done in the Big Ten Tournament. We can do better. Ha ha, our melting board is already calling for Gary Williams to coach next week, and for Buzz Williams from Va Tech to come over next year...
No, I don't think so. It's always easy for us to gnash our teeth, but much harder to go out and find the right coach at the right time.
On the other hand, they had the same thing to the nth power in lacrosse and did actually go out and find somebody better about 8-9 years ago...
Good for Nebraska. Makes me laugh at the jackasses melting down on this board last night. I wonder how many MD fans are calling for Turgeon to resign.
I will say that I was nervous about Nebraska, who gave the Terps a tough game both times earlier in the season...
FT's, Maryland, 19-23. Nebraska, 13-19. Palmer, Watson, Roby, 24-19-15. Fernando and Smith for Maryland, 11 points combined, normally 23/game.
The posts in this thread are just absurd. No matter what Nebraska did today excuses last night or Sunday’s pathetic performances.
40 minutes in two straight games from Palmer. Love the kid for doing it and respect the coach for allowing it.
Turgeon was always one of the worst coaches in the league. Ask the Maryland fan base. His recruiting saves him and he’s one of the best at that. He does less with more better than anyone since Tom Crean.
Personally I don't think he's one of the worst, but I think he's in the bottom half...
Same here. I'm kind of happy for the kid, and also for Tim Miles whom I've always liked...
Nebby was tough on D against us, almost impenetrable and tough to get a good look from the arc. And despite their lack of scholly depth, they had a couple of the best players on the court.
I wondered whether they might upset MD, and I reserved my comments about last night until seeing what Nebraska did next.
Yes, we still could have beaten them, but throughout the game they never let us get comfortable or on a good enough run to ever put them away. In the end, with their star players unafraid to foul out, they took over and pulled away.

A&M is all over Buzz Williams right now....good luck outbidding the oil money in Texas.....and Buzz is from Texas so it's home for him.
Didn't know that. He isn't my personal choice anyway. Not that I have one...
