While not a Basketball fan I do follow, listen and watch Husker games. You 
did a great job in picking this one apart and I consider Barry's benching 
Maric as losing the game. To me that was the second worst call I have seen 
this year and the other was the Umpires call against the Mariners for 
pushing off in the end zone when they got a touch down during the Super 
Bowl.

I think Barry is a good Coach that makes very bad decisions and I am sure 
Knight thanked him for that decision when they shook hands at the end of the 
game.

Considering what was at stake, the momentum and resurrection garnered after
Wednesday night's big win in Ames . this egg-layer-of-a-defeat


This one was tough to watch.


The Huskers had absolutely EVERYTHING to play for.  Colorado had lost
earlier in the day and a win would tie the Buffs with the NU-CU game coming 
up
Wednesday in Lincoln.  But they didn't play like a team that had as much to 
play
for as they actually did.  I was questioning the decision to let Maric  sit
while Tech turned the game completely around.

 Moe would have told someone to  "hair-lip him!"
 about the time he continued on with his stroll-through-the-park  way of
moving to and catching the ball anywhere he so desired.

This Nebraska basketball season is starting to remind me of the movie
"Groundhog Day."  They really laid an egg when they had everything to play 
for.

Huge opportunity lost today.  There were a lot of disappointed Husker  fans
filing out of the Devaney Center after today's effort.  As you looked  at 
the
last five games of the conference season after the win in Ames on 
Wednesday,
this is one that you HAD to think Nebraska HAD to win.
