Minnesota has a 36-30 lead at halftime, with 9 3’s.
Hoiberg has 14 points but no steals.
Sam is the only one playing well. Mast, once again, is not scoring, Sanford hasn’t got started, and our 3 point defense is out to lunch.
I hope Fred can light a fire under them at half time. Unsurprisingly we really are missing Frager.
We’re picking it up to start the 2nd half. Still shooting poorly from 3. 3 for 16. Minnesota starting to get into a bit of foul trouble which could be important down the stretch.
Huskers have 2 players with 3 fouls, too.
Huskers put on a show in the 2nd half and win 76-57.
Second half was 180° from the first half. Minnesota stopped hitting 3’s and we started. Not the greatest performance but that says more about the current state of this team. What would have been a great win in previous yeas is now put under a microscope. Sure is fun. Now on time Ann Arbor. If we manage to pull that one off, the sky’s the limit.
GBR!
11 regular season conference games left, 3 against rated teams, and everybody is going to be giving Nebraska their best shot.
