Huskers will make it to Sweet 16 this year





Sweet 16 was always a stretch
But yesterdays game happened. This team still has a lot of potential including a possible tourny bid
Well see
Nebraska's best team that I have seen should have made the Sweet 16, and they lost games. They lost by 20 at Missouri, and they lost by 13 to Okie State at home.

I don't think this team is that good. But good teams can get run out of the gym sometimes. If Nebraska can win more than they lose from here out, this will be a good season.

agree 100
non BBall fans dont realize this
 
Still stand by this?
Obviously not. Huskers sucked on Sunday. Not impressed with EVERY player coming under the screen and giving one of the best 3pt shooting teams target practice.

Creighton doesn’t want to shoot 15 footers. Coach Fred should have mixed up the defense and the full court pressure. He seemed a little shocked by their shooting % and locked up on making adjustments.

Does 10 more wins gets us to The Dance or do we need to win more than 10?
We need more than 20 wins, and we need to at least compete a little in the B1G Tourney. We can do this, they are all paying the hired guns now, so can we. I mean, I think we can make the dance.
 
pretty high bar. sweet sixteen....

maybe we should try eliminating the honor of being the only p5 school to not win a tourney game...

just sayin.......

The TeamRankings site I've been watching for a few years does thousands of daily simulations for rest of the season based on team stats and has one chart that shows "Odds to Make the Tournament Based on Win Total". I'm not sure exactly how they put it together, but they say we need 22 wins to have a realistic chance. "mshrug:
