@Norm Peterson I scrape that data from the RPI Forecast site http://www.rpiforecast.com/teams/Nebraska.html

 

It hasn't been updated yet to include the win last night but so far they have us slotted right at .500 still:

 

Final Record	Expected RPI	Probability
22-9	45.7	0.03%
21-10	56.2	0.24%
20-11	69.0	0.92%
19-12	81.6	2.89%
18-13	98.7	7.10%
17-14	116.6	14.74%
16-15	136.0	20.76%
15-16	155.2	21.95%
14-17	173.3	17.04%
13-18	190.0	9.68%
12-19	206.2	3.54%
11-20	220.2	1.02%
10-21	235.2	0.08%

 

For anyone depressed about yesterday's loss, I'd recommend going back through this thread from page 1 - just 6 weeks ago we were looking at a less than 1% shot at 20 wins...

Even more impressive to me is

 

 

 

 

 that it appears you traveled to the future to capture this post.  How'd you do that?

It's more than likely my fault because I know computers hate me. I go to Wal-Mart, computer scanner acts up. So I use self checkout next time...computer scanner acts up. Try to haul corn...scale computer acts up. There are more examples but I will quit there. Probably has something to do with the verbal abuse I lay on my computer when it acts up. So my apologies for turning the computers against us.  

I feel the same way but it’s not just computers with me, it’s all technology.

If Nebraska can beat Indiana & PSU to finish up the regular season, the Huskers will have beaten the 0.03% that was predicted in early January for a 22-9 regular season. That's as dramatic as it gets as far as outcome variance.

 

And, another thing: the 22 wins would be the 2nd most regular season wins in Husker hoops history, tying a team from nearly a hundred years ago.

 

This team is doing great. Let's enjoy the ride!

I actually spent an hour or so last summer doing some research on that team, which finished the season 22-2, and in particular the man who coached that team.
