40 to freakin' 25!

Now, I know that Nebby is a short team, but at least coming in, rebounding was viewed as one of their strengths. And both teams shot well, so the domination was not influenced by poor shooting. We just embarrassed them on the boards. Let me repeat, EMBARASSED them. Feels good to say that.

Thanks for indulging me. Did I mention we EMBARASSED them?

Late in the first half Nebraska was still getting a lot of offensive boards, as we were playing a lot of zone. We tightened that up as well as a lot of other things as the game went on.

Earlier, I think that they were leading in RBs at the time they went up by 12. They were getting a lot of put backs. So that means we really smoked them down the stretch when Pardon got into his put back groove. He didn't just get the RB, he knew what to do with it and took it straight to the basket.
