Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

YAY HOOPS: Penn State at Nebraska Live Game Thread

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.

UNL's big man might not go tonight.

Maybe Graham and Sasa will have big nights.

I miss Rec Hall.

Biggest reason I wish we hadn’t joined the Big Ten. That was one hell of a home court advantage.

I turned on the TV to check the score

and I heard, “studies in mind control” and saw the U of M banners.

I thought OSU already discovered this?

Which is why Tressel got a parade after being fired…

Down by 18

which is incidentally the amount in hours it takes to drive to Lincoln from State College.

Considering putting the game on mute.

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.

In football, at least

If Penn State fans and alumni truly believe that chant that echoes throughout Beaver Stadium ("We are....") then it's time to show it.

What does it take to rebound well?

Seems like luck, but the ball always seems to bounce to our opponents!

a lot of misses

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.

Some guy at PSU Hershey Med Center just discovered a virus that eats cancer. Where were the CNN trucks for that? THON will probably break $10 mil this year. Put that on "Outside the Lines".

I'd still worry about Wisconsin with Cox

But ultimately, that’s a good sign
