Re: Nebraska Basketball 2017-18

Lots of missed opportunities. Missed multiple easy baskets.

It was different with the rule changes they made. Not sure on 3 point line or lane but I kind of liked breaking it down to quarters.

It’s fitting that NU is playing at 8 tonight after all of the home 8PM games on BTN.

Are the women on the bubble, or does it look like they are WNIT bound? I think they got lost in all the men's talk of late.

I think Dana is out of the hot water that he was in in Orgeon on his players off court behavior (one was for rape), so I I don't see him leaving Oregon. I think it's his final stop.

No way Dana leaves Oregon unless he is forced out for player issues, which I think has subsided.

Penn State takes down #8 Ohio State last night.

All signs seem to point to a No Sit Sunday against them for the home finale on Sunday the 25th.

NU still needs to win at Illinois and at home against Indiana before then. Neither is a give me.

Re: 2017-18 UNO Hockey

Hockey tickets are pricey. UNO went to tiered pricing, so they upper bowl seats range from $20-35. North Dakota and Minnesot Duluth are the $35 games.

For this weekend due to demand, UNO is selling $10 standing room only tickets.

Should be a great atmopshere.

It definitely hurt when Palmer was out. I understood the thinking of him needing a breather.

I also think it hurt with Bruno that Jordy T was in foul trouble in the 2nd half. ...
