Nebraska Omaha Game Thread

[lhsgolf19]

Solid Effort tonight... Need to tighten up on D and take care of the ball... The Mavericks are 2-2 on the early season... Let's end on a good note before we head to Hawaii.

Game is on Tuesday Night at 7 PM and will be shown on Spectrum News 1 & ESPN+.

Starting Lineup:

G 10 Ayo Akinwole 6’0” 165 JR Papillion, NE
G 0 JT Gibson 6’3” 195 SR Brooklyn Park, MN
G 4 Zach Thornhill 6’4” 185 SO Lenexa, KS
F 13 Wanjang Tut 6’8” 205 SO Omaha, NE
F 40 Matt Pile 6’8” 240 JR Wichita, KS

JT Gibson leads the way at 15.8 PPG... Akinwole off to a solid start 12.3 PPG 6.8 RPG 6 APG... Finally, Pile is averaging 12 and 10 a night.

Get the job done! Hopefully we see Jordy get some minutes on Tuesday.

Go UD!

With 6’8” and 240 in the middle, and Moulaye redshirting, I hope Jordy can get 10-15 minutes tonight, to help get the rust off before Maui. Sounds like a good opportunity, Jordy’s health permitting.

Yep - seeing Jordy get some action and Ibi scoring around 10 or so would be a nice boost going into Maui

Okay I'm new to Spectrum and I was just looking at my guide and it's not showing the game on at 7pm on Spectrum channel One. Is it usual for spectrum to not have the guide right, or is it on another channel?

[lhsgolf19]

Jordy in uniform tonight per Jabo... Awesome News! I hope he plays a little, that would be fantastic

[lhsgolf19]

Same starting lineup as the CSU game:

Crutcher, Chatman, Landers, Mikesell, Toppin

[shocka43]

Ted Valentine in the house. I hate that guy.

[lhsgolf19]

10-10 with 13:45 left in the half

[jack72]

Defense decent so far, unlike our rebounding. We have given up 3 offensive rebounds.

[lhsgolf19]

16-12 UD with 11 to go

[jack72]

Obi to Ibi for the flush. Love the sound of that!!

[lhsgolf19]

Great Effort on Defense right now

25-12 with 7:40 left in the half

[frisco flyer]

It is encouraging to see the defense continuing to improve.

[frisco flyer]

Ibi is playing his best basketball in a Flyer uniform...also encouraging.

[jack72]

Wonder if we will see Jordy the next time their big guy, Pyle, come back in.

[jack72]

How about that D?

[RamodWaleskowski]

Trey Landers is a da** monster!!!!!

[jack72]

This is the team we have been waiting for.

[lhsgolf19]

Really Good Half Defensively

43-24 at the break

[EliteEight]

Great first half. Chase and Ibi are looking much more comfortable. Strong rebounding from Chase. Ibi looking confident on offense.

[The Fly]

Impressive first half. Great job of sharing the ball, finding the open man. Defense was stellar. Very few fouls and turnovers.

[frisco flyer]

The best half of basketball so far this year, both offensively and defensively.
Interesting that it happened without Obi heroics.
All three transfers who played made solid contributions.
Here’s hoping for a solid second half.

[jack72]

Very good defense. Held them to 42% and only 25 pts and 11 turnovers. Good shooting at 55% and 38% from three. Only negative is rebounding, where we were outrebounded 16-15 and gave up 5 offensive rebounds.

Have to love the help defense. I thought it was better than any the last two years. Also great ball movement and sharing of the basketball.

[cj]

0 dunks for Obi so far.

Playing well everywhere except the free throw line. Need Obi to nail these next two.

Spoke too soon!!

[jack72]

Good timeout. We have lost focus.

[lhsgolf19]

63-45 with 11:30 left

[lhsgolf19]

67-52 with 7:50 left

[jack72]

Time to pull up our big boy pants. We need to run it back to 20+, and not let them get it under 10.

[The Fly]

Lackluster play much of this half. Need to play with effort all 40 minutes, guys.

[jack72]

That's what i'm talkin bout!

[lhsgolf19]

84-62 with 3:20 left

[jack72]

Obi with 21 and 6 and I believe only 2 dunks.

[jack72]

Mikesell with a solid game tonight of 16 and 4 and 2 assists.

[312to937]

Teams are going to come close to scoring 100 points combined this half

Ibi delivered the “ten or so”. No Jordy. Secret weapon unveiled in Maui?

Really? Three games into the season and your making this comment. Maybe your dog would not be mad if you did not kick it so often!

[EliteEight]

Can I get a Happy dog instead? We won by 23 and Jordy will make a Hawaiian arrival.

[tirebiter]

So, what does the Obi dunk-o-meter read? I think I heard he was closing in on 100 career.

I predict at least 100 this year.

93-70 final

espn and google have the final score

I believe their last basket was waived off. 93-68.

[frisco flyer]

Last shot was just after the buzzer and did not count

[Figgie123]

Trey Landers made 5 field goals last night to increase his career field goals made to 251. In doing so, he passed the minimum field goals made for consideration in career field goal percentage, and is now in 8th spot in career field goal percentage at 53.5%. Just ahead of Anthony Corbitt (53.4%) and behidn Damon Goodwin (53.8%).
