Fortunate for us that Nebraska isn't shooting well, because our defense is giving them pretty much everything. Same old story, but we'd better start scoring again because we don't seem capable of defending.

I love Beilein. So don't throw me in with those whiny assholes.

But we've always been HORRID in the following situations: (1) inbounding under any pressure whatsoever, (2) defending an inbound, (3) at the end of the half. 

Every. Single. Year.

I think it would be sweet if our best player would actually play. That would help the team tremendously. Kind of getting tired of the lack of info except for him being pain free followed by some excuse why he's not going to play again. I personally think it's just Beilein and his overly cautious nature. It is like the auto bench from two fouls

absolutely killed us that half. 

Like 4 bad decisions there that could have given us 8 more points. 

I felt like we got hit with some very questionable calls - the first Shields block/charge call is one I would really like to see again, as it was a *huge* play in settling Neb down. But there have been a number of outright home court, home coach calls against us. 

I hate the way Coach uses our end of half fouls to give. For fuck's sake, let them get into their offense before fouling. He always fouls right off the bat which makes it a pointless strategy. 

Missed bunnies, missed free throws. 

Hard to feel confident going into the 2nd half with the sickening feeling we could easily be up double digits with a few better decisions, and maybe and then some with a few non-homer calls.
