How much does a story line truly help you get selected? If Keisei keeps playing well and keeps national media intrigued, does that help tip the scale in a bubble scenario? The committee is human, so I have to think it would help some even if they try to only look at results.

Watching to see if we can lock in Hoiberg's first sub-40 KenPom ranking before the Iowa game.

Even if it ticks back up in the 40s it should be a new low KenPom number for HCFH, which currently stands at 44.

 

We did it!!!  We even expanded our lead on OSU if ever so slightly.

 

38 Utah St. MWC 15-1 +16.13                                
39 Nebraska B10 13-3 +15.94                                
40 Ohio St. B10 12-4 +15.79

Make the NET make sense pleaseeeee!

 

San Francisco got a 5 point boost for beating the mighty San Diego by 20 last night.  They went from 42 to 37 in the NET.  They are also 0-3 in Q1 and 1-1 in Q2.  
 

St Mary’s got a 12 spot boost in the NET!!! 12!!! That’s the same boost I think we got for beating Purdue.  Who did they beat?  Portland.  By 43.

 

Obviously the NET favors how you beat someone more than who you beat.  I know we had some gripes about our weakish non-con BUT the last two non-con games we kind of hurt ourselves by not hammering them into submission.

I'd love for us to be a 5-seed in the same region where they're a 4-seed. Would LOVE to have another shot at them.

Let’s start with the basics. Win one. 
 

If Nebraska finishes with 25 wins but won one game in the tournament, would the season be a success? 
 

But I agree norm. Let’s keep winning past that and knock out Creighton 😉

Haslam loves the Huskers and we love Haslam.  Lol

 

Back in 2018, he and I exchanged a lot of messages. He's a Wisconsin guy but he really liked that NU squad. Wished his opinion had mattered. 😉

Took a nose-dive in the NET. #42 to #54. 😔


37 Hasla
48 KenPom

49 TRank

 
Literally gave everything we received after our Purdue win back.  We’re actually lower than where we were Sunday before the Purdue game.  Sunday after Wisco we were 51…

The Hoiball giveth, and the Hoiball taketh away.  This is the way of the Fred.

 

Ken stays at 21-10 (11-9).  Torvik says the same, 21-10 (11-9).

 

San José State hasn't played since Tuesday but they have dropped to #171.

Seems like the 64,000 Question is:   Where would we be if we'd lost to Purdue (as expected),  and won at Iowa B1G time?

Torvik has not changed the W/L prediction on any of our future games.  He is still predicting nine wins and five losses to finish-out the season.  So I'm not sure why our projected record changed to 21-10 instead of remaining at 22-9?

There are several 50-50 games, so it's basically accounting for the law of averages, I suppose.

KSU had moved up to 75 in the NET BEFORE their win over Baylor this evening.  They should get a nice bump from that too.  So as of now we are 3-3 in Q1.  That is a top 15 in the nation Q1 record.  There are only 20 teams in the nation with 3+ Q1 wins.

KSU NET is 69 and they are now a Q1 win.
