MBB: #19 Michigan vs. Nebrasketball Open Thread

Michigan is down early 5-6 after the first TV timeout. Defense looks solid but we have started out cold from the floor.

That’s two straight possessions with a foul on that Nebraska player that prevented Michigan from rebounding it that the refs didn’t call.

Having to multi-task here and TV on mute. It looked like a Nebraska player elbowed a Michigan player in the mouth when they were just standing there. What happened there?

Is anyone disseminating the accounts of this game without the consent of the BTN?  Just saw their warning!  Like anyone pays attention to this.  

Brown for two from the lane!

Brooks with 2 air ball 3’s. Need to work the ball down low. Way to many 3’s. Shooting has been horrible so far.

Michigan so far under Howard has had an issue with one player on the other team taking over the game. Also, Livers not being able to make a 3 is an unwelcome development.

That Allen kid is absolutely on fire. Would like to think he can’t keep it up all game, but Michigan has got to make someone else beat them. 

The rest of Nebraska’s team has done absolutely nothing.

Looks like a .500-ish B1G Team unless someone decides they want to be the go-to perimeter player to lead the way with Dickinson. Whether it's Livers, Franz, Chaundee, whoever ... somebody needs to establish themselves. Right now they look like they're just passing it around the horn waiting for someone else to be the man.

Well Michigan didn’t play all that well in the first half. At least they have the lead at the half despite shooting 4-17 from 3 and Livers, Dickinson, and Brooks only having 13 combined points. Need to get the ball to Dickinson more.

Livers has been disappointing so far this year. I thought he would be our 3 point shooter this year. Hopefully he gets it’s going soon.

This team really, really misses an above average point guard.  I like Smith and think he is a great kid, but wow this will be different next year with an above average guard.

Johns is really hurting the team too.  I know i said this a day or 2 ago, but i just do not understand how he has not developed.

Hunter is still amazing - feed the dick!
