Nebraska on a big run... our ball movement has been pretty bad once Loyd left the game.

Ducks are choking... It's going to be tough winning these close games without someone able to take/create their own shot.

yeah your percentage goes up when you don't have one player making 3 of 11 or whatever.

Great finish my the team after Nebraska made their big run to tie it up. Nice to see them finish off the game on the road and get a big win.

Next year!

Pretty good game for Oregon, I was surprised at how they handled being on the road against a pretty decent team.

Great win! Being able to hold on with Nebraska charging hard in a hostile environment is a great accomplishment, plus Nebraska could be a tournament team. I'm loving the progress of this team, and it should only get better.

Go Ducks!

Sloppy finish and Nebraska is mediocre team, but I'll take it. The team isn't totally clicking, but they look a lot better since Jabari departed (would still love to have him back). They aren't turning the ball over nearly as much. The team is still pretty weak at PG. Sim was solid for the most part, but isn't a true PG or playmaker. Loyd is a natural PG, but is often undisciplined and makes bad decisions.

Olu had a terrific game. Obviously, he was overmatched against Diaz - who has about 5 inches on him, but Olu is a very good defender against guys who are under 6'9. He has long arms, understands good positioning, and has excellent lateral quickness. Jeremy Jacob did a really nice job fronting Diaz towards the end of the game. Jacob is just a really solid player, when healthy.

Tony Woods has the potential to be the best player on the team. Not sure why they weren't going to him more. Woods is a very good defender, but only a so-so rebounder.

Tyrone Nared is the most underrated player on the team. He does everything well and has high basketball IQ.

Really liked Bruce Barron's energy. The kid played hard and seemed to play within himself - he wasn't trying to do too much.
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”

i wouldn't underestimate this win. nebraska is a bubble team who plays very good at home. they only lost twice in lincoln last year, both to tournament teams, and beat #13 A&M, #3 texas, and #22 mizzou. this is the kind of road win that can make a huge difference if we find ourselves on the bubble, too.

sim was awesome tonight, both from downtown and from the line. singler couldn't find his shot early but made the big plays late.

i'm surprised baron didn't get much time in the second half, unless i missed the memo and he got hurt. he hit a huge trey early on. agreed on woods, i figured his ankle was sore or something.

love nared.

some bullshit calls on ashaolu.

once emory figures it out i think he's going to explode.

Adding Joseph soon will be huge. It will really help to have another shooting threat from the outside.
