[ForeverADog]

Nebraska leads 50 to 42 with 10 minutes left.

Upset Alert!

[ForeverADog]

52 to 47 Nebraska.

[ForeverADog]

55 to 49. 8 minutes left.

Texas is struggling a bit against Nebraska's size.  This game worried me coming in because of Nebraska's size and because they're really tough at home.

getting on here to say that.  at the risk of incurring the wrath of AAW, Nebraska is getting a lot of help from the officials.

[bullets13]

Nebraska's PG pushes off EVERY time he touches the ball.

[bullets13]

Jeter just traveled throwing the inbounds, got the ball back, carried the ball, and then sent two forearms into Balbay's chest as he brought the ball up.  he then passed the ball and UT was called for a touch foul :)

[bullets13]

Texas down 8 with 1:36 left.  looks like they're going to drop one.  Good time to do it, as far as i'm concerned. 

[bullets13]

Texas was down 11, gets 3 freethrows, makes them all, fouls quickly, Nebraska misses both, then Texas hits a 3 taking about 5 seconds off the clock!  Texas down only 5 with 1:33 left!  At least we have a game!

[bullets13]

Nebraska makes 1-2 FT, up 6.  Hamilton makes 1-2, Horns offensive rebound, Wagmene to the line for 2!  Horns down 5 with 1:14 left!

[bullets13]

Wagmene makes 1-2, another offensive rebound, putback for Johnson!  Steal by Texas, Wagmene makes both freethrows!  Texas somehow ties the game with 1:07!

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

cmon Horns!

[bullets13]

Nebraska makes 2 FTs with 42 seconds left.  Up 2.

[bullets13]

Man, Hamilton's 3 rattled out!  Nebraska to the line for 2 with 29 seconds left.

[bullets13]

Brown fouled on a 3!  3 shots for Brown to tie with about 13 seconds left.  He misses the first.  Crap.

[bullets13]

2-3, Horns down 1 with 13 seconds.

[bullets13]

officials allow 4 or 5 fouls before finally calling one, allowing 5 seconds to run off the clock.

[ForeverADog]

What a comeback either way!

absolutely.  it's great to see the horns battle through.  it's an experience they needed after all those big wins to help prepare them for the NCAA tourney.

[bullets13]

Texas loses by 3.  Still, a lot of heart shown by the horns, and a valuable experience for them.  I'd rather them not coast through 15 games heading into the big dance.

[ForeverADog]

I see your point as using this as a motivation factor. But....


Losing SUCKS!!!!!!

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Should drop no lower than to #3. we still a number 1 seed

[baddog]

Nebraska acting like they won the national championship tells me all I need to know!

Hook 'Em!!
