UNI v. Creighton

Re: UNI v. Creighton

Once again can't crawl out of that big hole we dug ourselves at the opening of the second half. Just too far to climb when you have to fight so hard to get within 4.

If UNI gets hot, Jake may get the four wins he needs to eclipse Sam Weaver...

I won't hold my breath.

Re: UNI v. Creighton

We can always seem to make the games interesting, eventually we have to put a great offensive and defensive game together.

FWIW...a UNI loss in HD looks just as bad as without.

Re: UNI v. Creighton

Coleman needs more time on the floor. When it was looking horrible E had the big dunk 3 point play and lit the fire. That is why he needs to start. one huge play and everyone goes. Too bad it couldn't last. This is the first UNI game I had a chance to watch this year other than the Iowa game and honestly there not as bad as I thought. I just don't like the constant 3's! Get the ball inside, Jordan had 10 in the first half, E started the comeback in the 2nd. Why so many 3's? GET THEM THE F***ING BALL!!!!

He got caught looking and standing around a lot for easy buckets.

Re: UNI v. Creighton

Someone help me understand...why can't we hit 3s when we need to, yet the other team can??? This goes well back to Mac's tenure as coach. Is it someonething about Jake's practices (that he theoretically inherited from Mac), such as lack of emphasis on shooting??? Sure, Travis hit a couple tonight to keep us in it, but our 3 point shooting has been woeful other than that, while CU can seemingly hit them almost at will.

Also saw a couple of classic examples of no offensive movement, then throw up a wild miss as the shot clock expires. Again, stuff we saw during Mac's tenure that Jake seems to have inherited.

Re: UNI v. Creighton

This flat start to the second half is getting old. The problem is, it has been a trend with Coach Jake's teams. I don't care if we're missing a point guard, I can't believe that's the reason every other team comes out of the half looking sharper than we are.

It seems that since about half way through last season the team has been ice cold. There were a lot more KABOOMs before that.

Re: UNI v. Creighton

am i the only one who thinks Jordan and Eric COULD be a force in there together?? Koch does not need as many mins as he is getting, he is a turnover waiting to happen. Take some of his mins, keep Jordan and EC in there more!!!

Re: UNI v. Creighton

This is only the second game I have been able to see on TV, IL State the other, and I have read a number of posts regarding players Jake is putting on the court. Was it just me or did it look like UNI had a nice thing going with Coleman and Egelseder on the floor at the same time? CU was having a hard time when they both were in there, why not take it to them inside with the advantage UNI had.
