They played valiantly and Coach kept them in control. It is evident we need more depth. Only 7 guys played tonight. During the regular season, you need more players. You don't have the benefit of all the TV timeouts, like in the tourney. Coach definitely has "buy in " from the players. He will build a winner!!
Actually the number of TV timeouts doesn't change from regular season to the tournament. 4 each half at roughly 4 minute intervals. Your post did make me look it up and what is different is that the timeouts are a little longer...by 45 seconds. Halftimes are also 20 minutes instead of 15. I did know halftimes were longer but I guess I wasn't aware that timeouts were longer....learn something new every day I guess.
and the phantom fouls down the stretch against NU....grr.
Thought the same thing and just kept telling myself that the "ranked" teams will get the benefit of the calls. Coach Miles is keeping his calm and hopes to get calls to go the Huskers way in the future. Looking to the future.
