Huskers Host Jackrabbits Friday Night

Friday's matchup will be carried nationally on BTN with Chris Vosters and Nick Bahe on the call. The game can also be streamed via the web, smartphones, tablets and connected devices through the Fox Sports app.

Fans can follow all of the action across the state of Nebraska on the Learfield-IMG Husker Sports Network with Kent Pavelka and Jake Muhleisen on the call. The game will also be available on Huskers.com, the Huskers app and TuneIn radio. The pregame show begins one hour prior to tipoff.

The Nebraska men's basketball team hopes the third time is the charm. Nebraska (0-2) had plenty of chances against Southern Utah before dropping a 79-78 heartbreaker to the Thunderbirds, with opportunities for go-ahead baskets in the final seconds of both overtime periods; but could not capitalize before Cameron Oluyitan's basket with 3.5 seconds remaining gave the visitors the win. Sophomore Cam Mack's final attempt rolled off the rim at the buzzer in the second overtime.

I have a bad feeling about this game! We just don't know how to finish, if we are close and not being blown out! :(

That will be fun to watch. I look forward to an exciting game and the Huskers will finally get it together just enough to pull out a win.
 




This will be my first time this year to watch our new basketball team. Gbr
Well, we aren't very good right now, so just don't expect too much and if, if we happen to win, well that will just be the cats freaking meow. We should win tonight, I hope. GBR
 
Here's 'The Skinny' (from another site :Redface:)

The Skinny: It's possible that overall this is a better team than Southern Utah but it feels like their style and make-up are a bit more suited for Nebraska's roster and game plan. The Jackrabbits aren't going to win most rebounding battles, they want to play fast, and they turn the ball over at a fair clip. South Dakota St would probably be better served getting back and making Nebraska play a half court game but it seems unlikely they're going drastically change their game plan.

South Dakota St is a bit like Nebraska in terms of having a new coach and a fairly new roster. Gone is Mike Daum, the core of their string of NCAA runs as well former head coach TJ Otzelberger to UNLV. New coach Eric Henderson spent a number of years under Otzelberger at SDSU and Iowa St so you'll get a bit of Hoiberg flavor here in terms of prioritizing pace, transition, and 3pt shots.

While Nebraska will always shoot the 3, it seems like they should really look to attack the paint given the Jackrabbits' lack of shot blocking as well as penchant for fouling. Defensively, Nebraska needs to track the post players and 3pt shooters, which should be very easy just based on body type. Anyone who isn't a post is a threat to shoot a 3.

Last but not least, this is a South Dakota St team that isn't going to pack it in should Nebraska jump to any sort of lead. Is this the game where Nebraska takes a lead and holds it?
Prediction: Nebraska 85 - South Dakota St 77 with a 95 % chance of Runzas


Players to watch: David Wingett and Baylor Scheierman
The Nebraska natives are 3pt shooters for the Jackrabbits. Wingett has been more accurate 44% with less volume. Scheierman has been much more aggressive, shooting from NBA range when he's feeling it, but has only hit 30% thus far.
