Game Thread: Nebrasketball @ Illinois -- 1:30pm CST on BTN

This one is important. Need to get a 3rd consecutive win before a brutal stretch of 4 games.

Could be a nice momentum boost or it could be the opposite of we come out flat on the road.

I'll be watching with ye, jjm

 

[Brasky]

As will I

Illinois just recently knocked off Purdue fairly easily.

This one won't be as easy as the past 2 games. Really expecting to be trailing most of this game. I just hope we can hang around and give ourselves a chance late.

Kendrick Nunn must be held in check. If he goes off we're screwed.

Michigan State isn't a juggernaut this year. I think that game is winnable.

I can easily see them losing all four though.

Big game today, I agree.

Illinois will come out shooting well and have a small lead heading into the half, maybe by 5 points. Then will shoot something like 15% in the second half and lose by 10. That's just how they play, Groce can't seem to figure out the second half

Season ticket holder for football, make the 14 hour journey usually 3 times a year. Alum no, FSU is a shit school academically and I've got no problem saying that

Eh. Nebraska isn't much better. Wouldn't say it's a "shit" school though.

Graduating in the spring from University of Chicago instead. But did apply to FSU just for shits and gigs

 

[Brasky]

Nunn's gonna have a big head going into this one.

I'd take Tallahassee over Chicago this time of year.

Do we have tipoffs in our games?

I don't know because I've never seen one.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Wow we actually get to see it this time
