I will say it again...I wish we could have pulled that PSU road game out. So close.

Whooohoooo, huge come from behind win, impressive late run indeed. Way to go HUSKERS, job well done. Hopefully this momentum continues for the team the rest of the way and even more so in the big dance. Great job HUSKERS.

I’d like to have the KU, Creighton, and UCF games back too. Could easily be sitting at 22-4 right now. I think we’re seeing a team that’s really improving throughout the year. With that said, I still think NU needs a 5-1 finish and a B1G Tourney win to go dancing. And I think they can do that.
 
Anyone think that with all the distractions at MSU that they could slip up on a game or two? Would be a lot to overtake them but who knows what could happen.
 




That was a really good win. I know Wisconsin is not very good this year, but the way they had to battle back and overcome a lot of adversity on the road was very important.

I think those games you mentioned are "program losses". Sometimes you have a program that expects to win, and that pushes you over the top, because you are Kansas. You don't lose to some random team in a tournament because you have a tradition. Nebraska doesn't have that... hopefully it is building. Maybe next year those are games they win.

This was a "lunchpail" game: they showed up, went to work for 40 minutes and ended up winning going away. They expected to win, and they did. Fun to watch these guys growing.

That said, I doubt they can win any games this next week.
 
NU stands at about 57 in the rpi. Not great and not a lot of opportunity to improve that in the regular season....BUT after Minny they have 4 of theor last 5 at home against fairly weak competition. I'd say the odds of NU finishing top 4 in the Big 10 are pretty strong.

The big 10 is bad this year but it IS the Big 10. There is no chance they get less than 4 in regardless of RPI, SOS, etc. Could probably say the same about 5 bids too. NU would have to trip a couple times to blow it at this point imo.
