Introducing the Nebrasketbubble

[hskr4life]

We reallllllllllly getting close to the seasons start.  Would imaging MTE teams would travel in the next 14-15 days.  Scheduled, you’d think, would be wrapped up soon.

New article up from Robin!  Unfortunately OSU, Colorado St, and Cleveland St pulled out.  Other 8 are still in.  Looking to add two more “quality” mid-majors though a power 6 team will NOT be added.

As of Thursday, the Big Ten continued to debate how it would manage non-conference schedules or even if it would go to a league-only slate.

 

HuskerOnline learned that the MTE is now likely to include 8-10 teams, with no more than 10 in the field.

The eight known schools currently under contract are Nebraska, LSU, Northern Iowa, Illinois State, Western Kentucky, Nevada, San Francisco, and Saint Louis.

 

As things stood on Thursday, the hope is for 25 percent capacity, roughly 4,000 fans at Pinnacle Bank Arena. If that holds, tickets will go on sale to the public next week.

DW's school decommitting from Nebraska seems apropos

Oklahoma St, Cleveland St, and Colorado St out. The state of Ohio has a rule that anyone travelling to states with a positivity rate over 15% needs to quarantine and I wonder if they were afraid that Nebraska would hit that mark during the tourney.

Wonder when a decision will be made on fan attendance @ either/both venues? Where will this be televised? Looking forward to hearing the details as this unfolds...

Capacity for events has been capped at 500, doubt we see any general admission fans for this
