Didn't dawn on me and forgot the tip in 3 years ago until I read the article in the OWH that we haven't beat Michigan in Basketball since joining the B1G...

Today would be a perfect time to GIT-R-DONE.

MIchigan matches up very well against us. They are extremely long which is preventing us from penetrating right now. We have to knock down outside shots if we want to win.

Absolutely need to shot very good behind the arc today and Michigan is very good at 3's.

Why does every stinking home game we get the group of refs with their heads planted firmly in their ***?

Can't watch at work so I'm listening to Kent. He makes it sound like NU is getting the short end of the stick from the refs. Is it as bad as it sounds?

Refs stop play while Nebraska has the ball, and nearly give the ball to Michigan for no reason. McVeigh gets shoved out while scrambling for the ball, and it's out on him instead of a foul. Tai Webster manages to commit a foul by being close to someone with the ball. The list goes on.

I love watching our team play. This is the first time in a long time I have seen a Nebraska basketball team that actually played like a team.

They've missed a lot of calls both ways. they are just a lousy group.
I think you're being a bit generous saying they've missed "a lot" both ways. They've certainly missed a few against Nebraska, Tai Webster nearly walked to the basket from about the three point line and wasn't called for traveling, but Michigan has been getting away with it all game long too, so not much there. Tai Webster has two fouls, both pure BS. The last one, Michigan guy was behind Tai, going for rebound, hooked Tai's arm, Tai clearly did nothing to be called for a foul, and was called for a foul, and a shooting foul at that, when the guy wasn't remotely close to shooting.

I'll agree, most college crews suck bad no matter what, but Michigan has certainly benefited this game.

Can't win if Michigan doesn't miss any shots...they may have finished this one off with their start to the 2nd half.

You're right this 2nd half has not been called fairly at all.

Pretty sad refs can't recognize a total flop when they see one. Three undeserved, unearned points to stop the run.

Well...NU has gone on a little run of their own. Hopefully the 2nd half hole wasn't too big to overcome.

Serious question, was there some sort of rule change regarding pick plays I missed? Anymore, guys look like they are blocking in football, not setting a pick.

Shields is having an off day and nobody else is picking up the slack. We were due for one of these games I'm afraid. Still have a shot.

If not for the three free BS points Michigan got on the non foul, it would be a one point game.
