These last ten days or so have been really fun as a Husker basketball fan.  Let's keep it going!

Playing on Wednesday makes our path more difficult, unfortunately.

 

Would love to stop playing on that day going forward.

This is true.  A Wednesday team has never won the Big 10 tourney.

Verge HAS to hold his own against Boo, that’s the key for the Huskers advancing…!!!

Amazing, Nebraska was a 1-16 team that won 3 straight (ALL ON THE ROAD); meanwhile, Minny was a 4-11 team that lost 5 straight. That first B1G win for NU this season was against.... Minny. The deciding factor. Niice.

Well... Likely path is...

 

Northwestern --> Iowa --> Rutgers --> Illinois --> Wisconsin/Purdue.

We'll be in the finals.  But not against either Wisconsin or Purdue.....

I actually like playing Iowa in game 2 instead of game 3 because our legs won’t be as tired. That’s still quite a gauntlet of games. But... why not us?

True-- game under our belt, but not too tired legs.  Going to have to jump on Iowa in that Thursday game... but first... Wednesday.

[Bugeaters1]

Will Trey have to miss any of the Northwestern game?

Yeah, we will definitely have our hands full with NW. Hopefully Bryce is ready to go and Verge keeps up His outstanding play! 

[thrasher31]

Playing NW leaves me indifferent. They've beat us pretty handily twice now, but we're obviously playing way better ball then we were then. Need to find a way to contain Pete Nance/Boo Buie and I think we'll have a good shot. Nance destroyed them in the last game and Boo in the first. 

 

I want revenge and I hope we find a way to pull this one out.

What time is the game I'm not seeing anything online? I scored a ticket to the Big 12 tournament a couple weeks ago- lower level for 5 bucks. Thought what the heck I haven't been to a game since the pandemic. Now Nebraska decides to play great basketball :(
