Some good, some bad, plenty of lessons for Husker hoops after trip to Italy

The Nebraska basketball team's 10-day trip to Italy can be distilled down to one 40-minute game.

"We played probably our best 20 minutes of the trip and also our worst 20 minutes of the trip in the same game," NU coach Fred Hoiberg said of Nebraska's 73-70 win over Silute BC on the third game of the four-game trip. "And you just try to take the good things and learn from them, and also the bad things, which there were plenty of both in that game."

Of course no one, especially the people who made the trip to Italy in early August, should forget the things that happened between the games.
