Does NW get away with the moving screen every game?
What an adjustment by the staff, it’s been a weakness letting guys go off, glad they found a way to tourniquet the BB bleeding

When this team busts their !!! on defense, we win.

Trent Meacham agrees.
Should have asked for a blowout win, but wouldn’t ask for a gift receipt it’s a keeper.
I'm going to claim another victory here. Watched the entire first half and was disgusted enough I just switched to watching Jiminy Glick clips, which was a sheer delight. Grabbed my phone and saw we cut the lead to 4. Flipped the game on, they instantly stretched it back to 12. That was it, I was done for the night. Waited until 13 second left to go back to the game.
so again, you're welcome Brad

I'd rather michigan lost! Looking forward to starting the NIT chant on March 2nd...and Rutgers lost
Harris and Rogers, superfrosh getting a rep now.
Basketball is a game of runs. Wow.
I was worried when Epps missed the 3 when we were down 40-36. I was like oh man that might have killed our momentum. Then Buie hit a 3 the next possession. Was not looking good. But basketball is a game of runs lol.

Good lord! Hard to understate the importance of coming back like that. That makes a team come together and really believe in each other.
Here’s to Ty making hustle plays all game. Here’s to Harris’ incredible defense. And here’s to TSFJ (can we say that now?) for stepping up as a leader and putting this team on his back.

I feel slightly less crazy for driving back to IL for the Michigan game and then Purdue and then back to NE after that.
In fact, I'm adrenalized enough to do the drive before work tomorrow.
Holy schmack

It's like that on here when we are up 30 at half...
Would 89 Ga. Tech and 05 Arizona be somewhere in those top 5 comebacks?

I try to post it after every win. It’s my thang.
I thought we were headed for a repeat of PSU/Mizzou/IU. We are bipolar as bipolar can be but we do NOT get swept by Northwestern around here.
Welcome back, UCLA Shannon. Harris and Rodgers once again bringing the energy.
Now if we could just cut out the stretches of dumb basketball, we'd be a force to be reckoned with.
We can all back away from the ledge. This team is going to the tourney.

That was a really special comeback. You can't do that without heart, hunger, and teamwork. Three things that I questioned us having. We waited all season for a time when we would finally put it together as a TEAM. And we finally got it. We finally got the potential and the possible ceiling. It seems crazy to call a win over Northwestern as a possible season changing win. This was it if I've ever seen one. If we build off of this and this taught us who we are as a TEAM, then we do have promise, we do have a high ceiling, and we can make a run in the dance. Special stuff. Season changing stuff. May we go from here and never look back. Hell of a win. Hell of an effing win.
I'm gonna to be so swagged out on Teams calls tomorrow. Suspenders, jersey, pom poms, orange blazer.
