Seems like petro would be perfect for this zone
Boz came on and helped big time. With Wags shooting ability and mihailo ability to drive and pass due to his quickness it could get wags some great looks to play off the ball with Mihailo. It's tougher today fir Boz to drive and pass

Nebraska wasn't going to shoot at that ridiculous high rate for a full 40 minutes. It never felt out of reach to me
The only positive when one guy goes nuclear...

The rest of the team has no rhythm. I'd attack him on the offensive end. Keep him in foul trouble.

Eventually he'll stop playing D in fear of getting fouled out.

I am going to just believe that the goal is to let a stud go bonkers first half so that when they are shut down in the second, Brad can tell everyone to shove the complaints about adjustments. There must be an agenda here lol

We just need to rebound like we can. Multiple times in the first half we had more people in a better position and Nebraska still came away with the rebound. They just plain want

Will rewatch later but would love to know the # of dribbles before made shots of the Husker players in 1st half. Seems like all catch and shoots. I don't recall Sandfort dribbling before make....then there's their other 3-5 other made shots 🤣

Good close to the half … But the whole reason we needed it was because of how poor we started …

Can’t do that against good teams …
Very, very rare a team shoots like that. The list is incredibly short in terms of teams who can overcome a top 25 team shooting 8-15 from three, and have it tied at halftime.

It took a little home cookin' to get us back in this. Loved/hated that foul call giving Boswell three foul shots. probably not going to get that in the second half - but don't think we need it - Nebby is going to be dispirited by only coming out of the first half with a tie. If we can start strong out of the half, it won't be close.

Playing with fire letting opponent out hustle and out shoot you until you wake up and turn things around. Really top teams won't let you get back in the game. Like UCon 2 years ago and Duke last year. Killer instinct, which we need to start having.

Need a 3 point shooter in there to loosen up Nebraska's D. Everything is just clogged up. And get MIRK OUT!!!!
