Usually I would agree.  Both teams were at full strength and played to win.  I will count that.  Sure it won't show up in the official stats.  We still beat them.  Plus, you play every game to win.  We won.  I will stick with 2-2.  

 

Nebraska played Miss St. twice, whether it officially "counted" twice doesn't really matter.

Why do I have this feeling we wouldn’t be considering ourselves 1-3 had we lost the exhibition?

 

Does Miles have two 20 loss seasons now since we lost our secret scrimmages those years?

 

Guess half the football team went 5-8 last year since they won the spring game.

No one truly cares whether NU won or lost the exhibition, it's the fact that the Huskers played Miss St. twice. And I doubt hskr4life really is all that concerned with the charity game result.

 

My takeaway is that I wished that NU's earlier experience in Starkville had led to a better result in the N.I.T.

I'm just happy that the biggest thing we have to argue about at this point in the year was if the charity game should count or not.  That my friends is one hell of a year so far.

If the exhibition counted there is a decent chance we wouldn't have been in the NIT

I don't think so judging by how far we were out of the bubble.

The NIT was seeded differently by different people than the NCAA.  We got screwed being put as a 5 seed.

S-E-C! S-E-C! S-E-C!

 

Oh wait. Do they use that cheer when they're getting their ass kicked? Not sure.

 

Whew - Michigan looks serious about winning the whole thing tonight.

[Cowboy Kermit]

I think Michigan is pretty good at the whole basketball thing.

Michigan is the definition of live/die by the 3...and right now, life is good.

when wagner gets uncorked, that team is nasty good. glad they're getting after it and abut to bounce another vaunted SEC team from the tourney.

is this the most mis-seeded tourney in recent memory? both the NIT AND the Dance? I can't imagine how the vaunted quadrant system survives this nonsense.

Michigan extremely well coached.  Hardly ever take a long two.  3's or rim.  Their d tries to eliminate those exact things.  Coaching at its finest.

totally agree. bielein such a good hire for them. i'm glad they finally are getting the kind of game they were playing to close out the conf tourney  with. it's been a dicey run for the wolverines up until now.

Completely different team when they are making shots.

Anyone else rooting for Nevada because they hate crayton.

LLLLLLOOOOYYYYOLLLAAA!

It'll be a mild upset if Porter Mosier is still the Loyola coach next year.

[brfrad]

That SEC is loaded.  They have zero teams remaining in the NCAA tournament.  Good job SEC, getting all those Q1 wins to fool the committee.

$EC has 0-for-8 remaining after last night's outcomes.
