This is one the Wildcats have to get -- but I have a feeling that I'm going to be writing that a lot this year. Coming off of two straight losses, NU needs to notch a W against one of the surprise teams in the Big Ten this year. The Huskers are 3-0 with wins at Indiana and Maryland already.

I think we're trying to conserve our energy for the second half.

I like establishing Pardon in the post early. He's made one and got another very good shot that just rimmed out.

Watson is going to be a problem for McIntosh.

Nebraska is killing NU on the glass -- it's 12-4 Huskers in rebounding.

I told you,we are better with Ash out there! He has the speed to handle the exceptional guard play of Nebraska! A couple nice assists by Ash! His defense is what we need most! Hands in the face

Cats go to the zone and immediately give up an offensive rebound and basket by Jacobson.

Blowing at 10 pt lead with a 14-0 Nebby run at the end of the half-Yikes!
The turnover at the end with Nebby hitting a 3 at the buzzer hurt too.

Just hope the Cats put it back together in the second half. We need this win on the road.

Can we just get Wrassler his own containment thread where he can post to his heart's content?
