HuskerActuary Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 Holy crap, just a terrible start to the day for us. Dating back to last night's Bonaventure win, that's four games in a row where we really needed one team to win and they did not Quote
Cookie Miller Wasn't Dirty Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 3 minutes ago, HuskerFever said: It's tough. Before this game they were: RPI 21, KPI 14, SOR: 19, BPI: 32, POM: 31, SAG: 30 And our beloved quadrants before this game: Q1: 6-6, Q2: 2-3, Q3: 3-0, Q4: 5-0 So they've got real good numbers. But the eye test would be very different. Unfortunately I think they'll get a little more slack than they should. A five game losing streak is a five game losing streak. We had one when we got in the tournament in 2014, but not this late in the season when it all starts to matter! Let's say they lose two of their final four: @KU, KSU, @Bay, ISU. RPI Forecast has them around 38th. Things would definitely get interesting if they lost their first Big XII tourney game. Quote

Im starting to like when I don’t have a dog in the fight, Because this whole thing is a hot mess. one Conference beats up on each other, they are all good, the other beats up on each other, they are all mediocre. itll be funny, and frustrating, when the Big 12 and the SEC struggle in the NCAA’s.

brfrad Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 This was my first time watching Oklahoma. It seems they are way too dependent on Trae Young. If he is shooting well, they can beat anybody, but if he is struggling, anybody can beat them. Not a good recipe for a long stay in the tournament. Also, I am going to drive myself insane watching these bubble games. It's like I'm watching a Nebrasketball game all the time. Might need a little break from these games. HolyBobpilgrimage 1 Quote

Cookie Miller Wasn't Dirty Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 Would be nice to see Northwestern hold this early lead on MSU. Vaults OSU back to the one seed and makes one of our road wins look better, with a possibility of later creeping into Q1 territory. Blindcheck 1 Quote

I’m confused if the last couple days mean the big ten is full of parity like they say the Big East, 12, or SEC? I’m sure we’re just MAC #2. Quote
HuskerFever Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE BIG TEN????? Northwestern 43 Michigan State 17 with 3:28 to go in the 1st! Quote

The whole perception by the media is one thing, let's hope the committee understands that winning on the road is difficult. Nebraska has an opportunity tomorrow to go to 5-4 in the Big Ten on the road, and 7-7 away from PBA on the season. And NU is 14-1 at PBA....Nebraska needs to take care of business, and let the chips where they may. GBR Quote

NeeandMe Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 I understand that watching bubble teams you should see more wins than losses, that's just how it works, but watching every frikin bubble team pick up big wins every frikin night is getting real old real fast.

HuskerActuary Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 For what I would call the "really important" games we are 0-6 so far today, and in three of those the team we wanted to win was the favorite. Unreal! ShortDust and Cookie Miller Wasn't Dirty 1 1 Quote

hskr4life Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 I’m just thankful that the seasons ending a week earlier than usual. My lord I don’t think I could do it another week. On the flip side, I hope we do enough to end the season that I don’t have to freak out conference tournament season. HuskerActuary, ShortDust and HolyBobpilgrimage 2 1 Quote

HuskerFever Posted February 18, 2018 Report Posted February 18, 2018 @royalfan, we've got a mini miracle here. Marist actually pulled one out. Delaware State, however, fighting real hard for last place. Quote
