Huskers vs. Illinois

[Wonder Monds Fan]

Neither team has an offensive rebound yet.

[Wonder Monds Fan]

And as soon as I post that we get the 1st one of the game with 2:27 left in the half.

[carrolltonsker]

Richardson with a 3 and NU is down 22-21. Steal by NU and McCray is fouled. He makes 1 and the score is tied 22-22 with 2:20 to go.

[Wonder Monds Fan]

All tied at 22.

[carrolltonsker]

NU with another steal. NU ball after the TO with 2:03 to go.

[Wonder Monds Fan]

This is certainly a better game than I was expecting.

[carrolltonsker]

McCray shoots an air ball.

[Wonder Monds Fan]

Bo with a 3! We lead 25-22.

[carrolltonsker]

Spencer with a 3. NU up 25-22 with :50 to go.

[carrolltonsker]

McCray is tied up on the rebound, but it's NU ball with :42.6 to go.

[carrolltonsker]

Talley with turnover #12.

[carrolltonsker]

Poor possession by Illinois. NU leads 25-22 at half.

[Wonder Monds Fan]

Illini fans are booing, I don't blame them.

[carrolltonsker]

Both teams with a total of 24 turnovers. I don't think this will be an ESPN instant classic.

This is certainly a better game than I was expecting.

Better in that it is close.

[Wonder Monds Fan]

Yeah that's definitely what I meant, because it sure hasn't been pretty.

[Knight]

Bruce Webber teams since he has had his own players are commonly low scoring teams. But I don't know about this many turnovers!

[HuskerInOkieland]

Thanks for the play by play. I could not find an online stream to the game so I am somewhat sitting this one out. Man, I hope the Big Ten Network comes here soon.

Illini fans are booing, I don't blame them.

Thats appropriate.

[Wonder Monds Fan]

Fun stat, in the 1st half both teams committed 12 turnovers, and both made 8 FGs.
