What I learned from this game: Isaiah Roby can jump about 20 feet into the air. When he learns to dunk, look out.
Palmer went from goat to G.O.A.T. in about 30 seconds there... glad for him I guess but he's keeping all the cardiologists in Lincoln busy.
Why can't Nebraska find someone who can rebound? I understand that the offensive rebounds are sometimes coming off of crazy shots, but it seems like Nebraska is slapping at rebounds that the other team grabs. We need Chubick or Markowski or Wilson Thomas or someone who is motivated to rebound.
BTW, Borchardt had a pancake block. I don't think they chart those for basketball though.

Oh Grow up!!!! LOL!!!!! Fun having you on line tonight CB.... It's always good to chat with you... Have yourself a great evening Sir, and I'll chat with you later..... GBR!!!!!
OK. When is the next game.......................so, I can go hide?
And here I thought that you were now on your computer, and not your phone.... mmm hmmm....They are keep cardiologists busy all over the country, my friend!
Frustrating to say the least...
We listened to most of first half on radio broadcast. Finally, got to tv and set DVR to record rest of game. The plan was to FF through rest of game after finishing the birthday cake for my son who turns 10 this week.
So we are FF through the game and my son tells me that NU is on a 14-0 run to take the 8 point lead. We see way too many offensive rebounds go to Illinois....way, way, way too many.
Then we see Roby catch the ball on the right wing, survey the floor, see that absolutely no one cares that he has the ball (which we know to be true because we are pausing it), see that no one is even looking at him until his second step, explode into "watch this!" as he launches eye level to the rim for a dunk that would have been completely the most high flying, death defying dunk in PBA history...if not NU history.
We also see Roby's amazing save, Copeland's amazing block, and more offensive rebounds go to Illinois....and then......the DVR replay stops. No way!!! We don't get to see the last 7 minutes or so....no game winning shot.
The rebounding.......
Still take the win!

The announcing crew mentioned that Illinois rebounds 37% of their missed shots for the season. I know that the Huskers always have issues with giving up OR but that stat is ridiculous.Frustrating to say the least...

Thanks for the info. It is a ridiculous stat, but giving up offensive rebounds always drove me crazy.
Thanks...usually, it's no big deal. More disappointed for my son since watching the game was something he was looking forward to tonight.
No.
why does Nebraska always end up with bigs that can't dunk very wellFrustrating to say the least...

I think the dude who came over to try and take the charge messed that one up a little bit...I think Roby has a chance to change that.
one time he should have just laid off the glass and got the+1
