Texas at Nebraska

[Horns11]

At least we're going through this game now and not a month from now. It was bound to happen.

 

[mb227]

when will Texas learn to play two complete halves?

 

[GemStateJim]

Lotsa time left. Let's see how our 'Horns respond.

Nebraska's defense causing Texas to miss slam dunks and layups. Very bad performance by Texas. All Nebraska, they lead by 8. Texas remaining schedule looks tough with games at Colo, at Baylor and home to Kansas State.

 

[warrior]

Outscored by 15 in 2nd half so far Horns not responding at all.

 

[scottnaustin]

Win: I'd say the announcers are balls deep in Lincoln.

I hope we wake up...down 6 with 8:25 left.

 

[Bevo-Stevo]

FINALLY the ref whistles Husker for over-the-back. Benn happening all freaking game.

Agreed with earlier comment....need to switch to zone on D.

Shooting 35% now. We've forced a few too many shots, but we've also missed some wide open looks. This is one of those games where if we're knocking them down we blow them out.

They're shooting 51% now. Way too many easy layups.

The good news Nebraska is in foul trouble, bad news Thompson keeps missing free throws and Thompson now in foul trouble with 4, very poor game for him

Jordan Hamilton has No field goals in 2nd half, 11 offensive rebounds for Nebraska only 6 min. left Neb by 6 with the ball.

 

[warrior]

Texas cannot even cut into the lead which is 8, Texas is out of gas.

 

[warrior]

Basketball team losing by 11 and baseball team losing 10 to 1, so far not a good day for Texas

 

[warrior]

I thought Neb could win this game by a point or 2 but I did not think they could blow out Texas, Neb looking for 13 point lead

 

[GemStateJim]

That baseball game was ugly. It was broadcast at TexasSports.com and it was not a pretty sight.

 

[Longhorny630]

i didnt realize that they gave out championship belts to unranked teams wearing montreal expo hats.

Maybe this loss at this time of year is exactly what Texas needs? They are getting their asses kicked right now, I give Nebraska alot of credit, they play great defense. Texas will fall in the polls but not too far but today Texas did not look like a number 1 seed.

 

[Win]

Stopped watching the game, but heard 2 whistles in the last 5 min, I'm not getting upset that each whistle is going against Texas at this point of the game.

 

[Third Coast]

I knew these lethargic efforts in the 2nd half would catch up to us one of these days.

 

[charloscarlies]

They just put up a graphic showing NU w/ 36 points in the paint vs 10 from Texas. Says it all IMO.

Nebraska does not give you many open looks, their defense is # 1 in Big 12 for a reason.

 

[Longhorn0184]

I don't know if it's been mentioned but how many tipped balls out of bounds that caused turnovers did we have this game?

I want to say at least 5 that I can think of.

This just looked like a sloppy game by us today... hopefully this will be a nice wake up call for us.

Plus... on the bright side... we aren't going to be #1.

 

[warrior]

Texas cuts it to 5, they have a chance with 1.33 left

 

[Uninformed]

I think it was a mistake having Balbay in the game when we are down by double digits and Nebraska is packing in the D. We need someone to help open up the court. Luckily Hamilton is starting to get it going. More than likely it is too little too late, though.

 

[warrior]

Balbay does play good defense though

 

[arieshorn]

OMG...wtf is going on in the last minute of this game!

 

[warrior]

The last minute has been unbelievable, Texas has tied it up at 65, Awesome comeback

 

[charloscarlies]

And Hamilton takes another poor shot...

Not his best game for sure.

 

[warrior]

Nebraska has ball and at the line with 2 point lead, can stretch it to 4 with 29 sec to go
