I keep saying to myself, "They are young. They are young." Looks like a lot of potential. How are feeling about this team tonight, @huskerbaseball13?

Basketball challenged so pardon if its a bad question. it doesnt seem Nebraska players away from the ball move or set off ball screens. is this just the offense we run? just doesnt seem like alot of movement away from the ball.

They don't.

The game of basketball overall has gone to more of an isolation game and you don't see as much team basketball with screens and stuff like that. Under Miles, his offensive sets have been confusing at times and has lacked movement off the ball.

Is that our designed offense?

I hope not. I'd like to see more than just a few high screen and roll attempts, but I can't comment enough as to what Miles wants to do. I've heard a few young guys just aint getting it yet but can't confirm.

This game feels a lot like the Va Tech game. We should have buried them in the first half but we let them stick around. Hopefully we can't extend the lead a bit coming out of the half.

Really need some production out of McVeigh or the bench in the second half. Need one for McVeigh to go down to get his confidence back.

Missed dunk by Morrow. Missed non-contested bunny by Jacobson but good to see him hit that 10 to 12-footer. Clemson hits a 3 from beyond the NBA line. 7 point difference, dang. Tshimunga with some quality minutes, 3 points & 3 boards, couple altered shots.

Webster isn't seeing our roll guy, it seems like he was there 2 or 3 times for the dish.

McVeigh is definitely in a [road] sophomore slump. We need him to get back on track Saturday in a big way.

Game is spinning so fast in Roby's mind. I was hoping we would get 5-8/game out of him this season. Tonight is a chance for Turner from an offensive physicality standpoint.

It seems like Miles' offense is nothing but ball screens and ISOs. Which is what a lot of NBA teams do...but we don't have NBA talent.

As much as I dislike Creighton, I love the offensive stuff McDermott runs at Creighton. We'll see it next week.

Why won't Miles ever play Tshimanga in the 2nd half? He's done some good things inside. Taylor and Roby have been liabilities.

Geezus. The foul discrepancy is a little embarrassing. NU has 17 fouls and Clemson 6. NU has shot 3 free throws and Clemson 16.

Nice job by NU to keep this within reach when it looked like it was getting away from them.

Now...FINISH!
