I hate to give SH too much credit for beating St. John's. Just like I was mad when Nyatawa placed St John's ahead of us a few weeks back, that team is 12-1 but 0-1 vs. teams with a pulse. 

 

This sounds awfully similar to what pundits kept saying about us last year. "Can't win a Q1 game" and then "Can't win enough Q1 games."

By my count, Sunday's game against Iowa will be the first game NU and their opponent were both ranked since playing the Fab 5 Michigan team in the Rainbow Classic on 12/28/1992.

 

That is unbelievable but (sadly) believable at the same time. Let's make this ranked thing a more common occurrence!!

I'll tell you how it affected us...we moved to within one one hundredth of a point of Wisconsin on KenPom:

He completely contradicts himself with his entire rankings. If you want to base you rankings on 'what you have done for me lately' - that's cool, but your rankings should at least reflect that. Also, Nebraska is 3-0 in their last 3, won all 3 by 19+ points, two of those being against power confrence schools. We've played like a top 20 school lately.

What has Nova done lately to be ranked? 1-2 with a loss to Penn? What has Butler done lately to be ranked? Lost to Indiana at home, beat Presbyterian by 9?

 

I'd have more respect for Katz if he came out and said "Oh sh*t, I forgot Nebraska!"

For me... it’s more the people that said Minny wouldn’t compete for upper half of Big 10.  I remember that post game thread big time.
