Maybe Nana or Thor can knock down a couple of 3’s and help the cause, MAYBE...

I dunno. There's a lot of "runaway truck-y" stuff about this team, too. If by that you mean collectively unable to put the ball in the little hoop thingee for weeks at a time. 

There's a metaphor out there somewhere. We just have to find the right one.

I get the feeling this is the part of the thread where we do a number?

 

"Somewhere.....out there....."

[Huskerone]

Not sure about a metaphor, but I'm pretty sure there is an emoji

I think the bubble has poped...

Technically... no.

 

In reality... yes.

 

The slim chance that we had probably went buh bye tonight along with the teams will to finish the season strong.

Right now? Yes. But it's still not completely out of reach.

 

But our odds are probably closer to 10-15% now.

What our Ken Pom chances of winning 3/4 down the stretch? I’d guess less than 10%. Maybe 3-5%?

[HuskerFever]

We have two more chances left. Either:

 

1. Our playoffs start on February 23

2. Or the playoffs start on March 13

I'd say 6.2%.

65 percent of all the world's statistics are made up right there on the spot
82.4 percent of people believe 'em whether they're accurate statistics or not
I don't know what you believe but I do know there's no doubt
I need another double shot of something 90 proof
I got too much to think about

Poped, popped, pooped, whatever the word is it applies.

Well, Nana made 1 and the other 2 looked "decent" at lift-off.

Well, ppl can talk about it... Just not including NU as a 'real' part of the discussion.

Heres the thing man... yes we don’t have Copeland.  However, we certainly have the tools to compete.  We were leading Purdue AT Purdue, we just beat Minnesota and Northwestern without Copeland.

 

If you make the dance... I don’t care what year it is... you deserve it.  If we make it this year, it means we kicked adversity in the chops and beat multiple ranked teams in our final 6 OR we went on a run to beat multiple ranked teams in the BTT.  Either way, we’ll deserve it.

 

Give me NCAA or nothing every year.  Screw the NIT.  No one cares, no one remembers, and not one player WANTS to be there.

 

If Miles sticks around, it’s because he deserves it.  It’s because he and the team did what everyone else said was impossible one week ago.  If the only two NCAA tournaments I can remember are under one coach... give me that coach and an “unhealthy” program any day.

Sorry man. I mean you're right. But how has this aged? My take was extremely pessimistic but it seems we have the weakest stomached team in the history of basketball. No FIGHT in them.

Turn out the lights, the party’s over and tomorrow starts the same old thing again.

What? A team with the history of Nebraska does not turn down an NIT appearance. Heck, Kentucky played in the NIT about five years ago.

Serious? Lame duck coach with players who are seniors that checked out.  Not going to happen if given the chance.  Wheres the motivation? If this was a young team maybe but not this team
