No post game thread? I was astonished at how the refs were letting Nebby get away with gang rape in the first half. And the team was obviously tight, missing the few open looks they got.
Loved the second half.

Guess I'll reply to myself.
I knew immediately that the problem in the first half was too much pressure--with all of the history around them, the team was way too tight. And Nebraska's constant body fouls didn't help.
I would love to know what GMac said at half, it certainly loosened them up. And Hilton went from a mausoleum to the rockin' house it should be. Great job, guys!
I continue to be amazed by the transformation of Sean Haluska...

15 turn overs first half, 0 turn overs the 2nd half. Pretty much says it all

Imagine that
I guess they get lonely in Nebraska... because their players were sure hugging our guys a lot.
Coach Sadler cracked me up to at times the way he threw his players out of their seats and on to the floor. Insted of Bobby Knight throwing chairs, we have Sadler throwing players!

I love the move GMAC did with sitting brackins (all) and Wes (most) of the 2nd half. Sends a strong message. Even though Wes had flu like symptoms it shows that we can survive with him back where he belongs.... in the F role not the Guard position. Granted this was another lower skill team but Wes is not a SG.
Huge game by Haluska and Clark. Nice comeback at home for a must win.b

I think we will see Wes playing more inside as he bulks up. Craig actually didn't play that horribly in the first half. At least he didn't force shots like he did against Oklahoma. Hopefully he comes back strong next week.

Wes was inside where is gimpy ankle wasn't a disadvantage moving laterally against healthy perimeter players. Once he's fully healthy, he'll show he belongs outside.

Was not happy in the 1st. 2nd half made my day. I have a ton of faith in the coach and players. Go Clones!

Also if no one heard.. Brackins, Wesley, Diante, and Sean (that i know of.. and fromthe radio) all had the flu through out the week.. so that makes this win even more remarkable

That works for me. How it happened I could care less.
Hope all our guys get healthy.
