Last Sunday's game against Indiana marked the unveiling of the new and improved Tim Frazier, now with 'karate-chop' action. Be afraid, Nebraska. Be very afraid. (Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images)
As Eric mentioned in his preview this morning, this is one of PSU's better chances at a Big Ten road win. With Tim Frazier and Jermaine Marshall having established themselves as consistent scorers, it's up to guys like Ross Travis, Billy Oliver, Matt Glover, and Jon Graham to not only help pitch in scoring-wise, but to also fill up the stat sheet with rebounds, steals, 3-pointers, and in general to keep up the scrappiness and ATTITUDE they've displayed against the Indiana schools. With that being said, expect to see a Nebraska team that's as desperate as some dude trying to score at a bar during 'last call' fighting like hell to get their first Big Ten win against one of the easier opponents on their schedule.
Tipoff is at 8:30 PM ET and can be viewed on BTN. Otherwise, your only other option is to listen to Steve Jones and Dave Baker on the radio (Sirius Channel 128 or one of these local affiliates).
As always, the standard open thread rules apply: No porn*, no trollish/racist/sexist/homophobic/threatening comments, and no links to illegal video steams of the game.
* Exceptions might be made for pictures of scarecrows getting it on in a corn field.

Well chosen photo.

UNL's big man might not go tonight.
Maybe Graham and Sasa will have big nights.
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
Let's go state
Keep our momentum going.

OT in NW-Mich game
Means we get to miss the tip of our game. Great.
mundyscorner99 - January 11, 2012
What a derpy ending.
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
Nebraska's home arena seems a tad Rec Hall-ish
Tim Aydin - January 11, 2012 via iPhone app
It is
But not as cool as Rec hall.
AriesGD - January 11, 2012
I miss Rec Hall.
Biggest reason I wish we hadn’t joined the Big Ten. That was one hell of a home court advantage.
M1EK - January 11, 2012
No BTN in this hotel room.
So this is what I’m going to picture for the next two hours:
M1EK - January 11, 2012
This
Only with more missed three pointers.
Tailgate Shogun - January 11, 2012
rec
tlrpsu - January 11, 2012
Same here...
Awesome picture though.
TheSwish - January 11, 2012 via mobile
BOO HOOPS.
Chris Grovich - January 11, 2012
Just disorganized right now.
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
Is that really Bo?
I can hardly recognize him without his cat.
PSUinBOSSton - January 11, 2012
What is the aggregate age of our head coaches now?
Is it a record?
PSUinBOSSton - January 11, 2012
Holy crap, this is awful.
I guess we were due for one of these after the last two games.
Chris Grovich - January 11, 2012
Pat Chambers looks like he's gonna pull a Cantafio in the locker room
DO YOU HAVE ANY PRIDE, BILLY? HUH? DO YOU?
Tim Aydin - January 11, 2012 via iPhone app
Do you think
he brought a VHS tape to smash?
Tailgate Shogun - January 11, 2012
He's gonna break a laser disc
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
Nice to see you back at BSD phiman!
Paige2PSU - January 11, 2012
Gotta stop by the bball thread.
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
Not as chaotic, though!
Paige2PSU - January 11, 2012
It's like everything is on slo-mo compared to EDSBS.
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
No shit!
But I love that place!
Paige2PSU - January 11, 2012
7-9 for free throws
Trying to stay positive
psfann - January 11, 2012
Is anyone here?
Anyone? Anyone?
What’s the score?
Paige2PSU - January 11, 2012
Eric gave me an update on twitter.
Paige2PSU - January 11, 2012
Nope
and not good.
Tailgate Shogun - January 11, 2012
37-25 UNL 18:50 left in the second.
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
Can't we...
Just play Purdue again instead?
erieisforlovers - January 11, 2012 via mobile
Yeah
This is not good.
mundyscorner99 - January 11, 2012
Guarding guys outside the three point line is stupid.
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
It could be worse...
We could be Navy… Just sayin
erieisforlovers - January 11, 2012 via mobile
WHY MUST WE SUCK AT BBALL!?
tlrpsu - January 11, 2012
im good now
tlrpsu - January 11, 2012
University of Minnesota + Mind Control = Not good
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
Say what now?
Kyle_Martin - January 11, 2012
What about that wasn't self-explanatory?
PSUinBOSSton - January 11, 2012
I turned on the TV to check the score
and I heard, “studies in mind control” and saw the U of M banners.
Frightened.
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
I thought OSU already discovered this?
Which is why Tressel got a parade after being fired…
Kyle_Martin - January 11, 2012
On second thought,
Wouldn’t surprise me one bit if Minnesota was behind the 8-ball on this too
Kyle_Martin - January 11, 2012
M1EK - January 11, 2012
Ok, you have a knack for posting great pictures
run with this!
Kyle_Martin - January 11, 2012
I luv the Z man
but this movie was pretty terrible
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
I dunno
I’ll watch anything with Steve Carrell in it
Kyle_Martin - January 11, 2012
Did you see
Crazy, Stupid, Love yet? Awesome movie!
Paige2PSU - January 11, 2012
It's on my list
Kyle_Martin - January 11, 2012
I've seen it twice now.
I made my dad watch it. He thought it was going to be a chick flick and didn’t want to see it, but he ended up loving it!
Paige2PSU - January 11, 2012
but strangely addictive
im going to eat your pudding
DocPennState - January 11, 2012
Just saw it on that BTN commercial
Didn’t know what it was about really. Just didn’t look promising
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
Oh I'm not watching
Kyle_Martin - January 11, 2012
Down by 18
which is incidentally the amount in hours it takes to drive to Lincoln from State College.
DocPennState - January 11, 2012
I mean, they're still playing hard. They're just terrible tonight.
Chris Grovich - January 11, 2012
Considering putting the game on mute.
Good lord these guys are dumb.
psuphiman80 - January 11, 2012
THEY'RE ALIVE.
I mean, still down 11, but alive.
Chris Grovich - January 11, 2012
I have seen PSU down by a lot more and come back
well that was last year. we will find out if they can do it this year.
jetskijoe - January 11, 2012
Too bad Billy didn't save a few of those 3's from the Purdue game
We could use them now!
mundyscorner99 - January 11, 2012
I hate to ask if a team is good or not because it completely disregards articles written on the subject but...
is Nebraska good?
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
No. But they are tonight.
Chris Grovich - January 11, 2012
I don't think they are
But I think this is a case of a team playing much better at home. Sort of like PSU does. PSU is not in the same league as Indiana but at home they can make things much more competitive. Conversely I think we are going to see plenty of growing pains on the road with a young team.
mundyscorner99 - January 11, 2012
That's probably true.
Chris Grovich - January 11, 2012
In football, at least
ICEICETHATGUY13 - January 11, 2012
Interesting comment on Nebraska's shower facilities...
/awkward
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
What does it take to rebound well?
Seems like luck, but the ball always seems to bounce to our opponents!
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
a lot of misses
farrellpsu - January 11, 2012
I'm happy we got a Special Teams coach today, by the way :-D
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
So...since this game is a bust pretty much
Anything random we can discuss?
AriesGD - January 11, 2012
love the grit
and determination, but my god my high school team shot better
farrellpsu - January 11, 2012
We seem to inspire good shooting for our opponents
I dunno why…
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
Aaaand, I think we're done here. Damn.
Chris Grovich - January 11, 2012
Ben Jones
tweeted that 4 star Safety Demetrious Cox will visit this weekend. Was going to be visiting OSU but was turned away because OSU only wants 5 kids to visit at once. Apparently he was not too thrilled by that.
Ben16 - January 11, 2012
I'd still worry about Wisconsin with Cox
But ultimately, that’s a good sign
ICEICETHATGUY13 - January 11, 2012
FG's 15-47 3FG's 2-19.
Chris Grovich - January 11, 2012
also at home
we seem to get charges…on the road none
farrellpsu - January 11, 2012
They're not giving up!
Mr. Rosewater - January 11, 2012
TF is a baller
DocPennState - January 11, 2012
Statement of the night

DocPennState - January 11, 2012
