Game Thread: #6 Michigan St (15-2)(6-0) @ Nebrasketball (13-4)(3-3) 7pm FS1

[Red_Alert]

Michigan St -1 or -2 depending on the book.

Huskers put their 20 game PBA winning streak on the line.

Michigan St is tied for first place in the Big-10 and the Huskers are in a 4 way tie for sixth.

Sparty dropped their opener to Kansas and haven't lost since the Big-10/ACC Challenge @ Louisville. They've been dominant both home and away since.

 

[Skerpokes]

Let's goooooooooooo!

Need to start fast like they did against IU.

 

[Red_Alert]

Yup. Crowd will be pumped early. Need to keep them in it.

 

[Red_Alert]

Of the next 4 games they get Michigan St, Ohio St, and Wisconsin in The Vault. Only Rutgers on the road.

Time to grow up.

 

[Red_Alert]

Sparty -2 across the board now. A -2.5 just showed up on William Hill book.

Nebraska A.D. Bill Moos keeps close eye on Husker hoops and likes what he's seen so far

I hope it gets to the point where the Cretin win is an afterthought in the discussion of quality wins this year.

Cretin got railed last night. sMiles broke his 7 game losing skid against them, so it's only a good win for those in Nebraska that aren't jayskers.

We are going to pecker slap these east Lansing douchebags right back into their mothers hairy ass

 

[HuskerPower52]

Rebounds are going to be the difference in this game.
81-79 Nebraska

 

[GhostRiderRushville]

Thought I’d visit the Michigan St. game thread...wasn’t one

Poor shooting to end the half...2 pt lead turned into 5 pt deficit

 

[antone112]

Battled pretty well for 17 mins. Then the Tim Miles half court offense showed up.

Only down by 5. Will miles continue to allow the team to settle for low percentage shots or will he actually coach?

 

[tometom]

Got behind because had to help my kid with homework.

Half court offense is just horrible. It just sickens me that Miles can get all these good guys better shots. Too much standing around while one guy dribbles. D is holding up though, hope they can keep that up.

 

[corn train]

What’s thy score nah

 

[tometom]

Not getting shit for calls.

 

[tometom]

We need a guy that can shoot like that Winston guy.

 

[GhostRiderRushville]

What’s thy score nah

44-40 bad guys ....not sure I translated correctly tho

 

[Red_Alert]

Down by 7 with 6:56 to play.
