He sat in front of us and at that moment I knew something great was going to happen. He was one of the first ones rushing the court too. GLORIOUS

No sit Sunday was bigger.  They also beat Texas at the Bob when they were #1

I want to say Texas was #2 or #3 then.  I was at that game.  I believe the #1 team had lost that same day, so it was going to be #1 Texas had they beat us.

Huh.  Who would have predicted a Husker victory tonight?  No winners on the cip contest.  We'll do it later this season.  Maybe at the Final Four!  

In this thread I had Huskers by 10, but Huskerkid21 had us by 14 !! Oh baby he was close.

Biggest win of Fred's tenure? By a lot? 

 

 

Obviously. But maybe it won't be by the end of the 2023-24 season?

 

DREAM BIG!

We could have lost this game and I still would have said this was fun. Let's go! Love the effort.

 

I'll only half-agree with that. That win was deserved. And both for the team and fans is what I'm talking about! GBR!!

They beat Texas, but they most certainly were not ranked number 1. 
That was our first win over a #1 ranked team since 1982 against Missouri, and that game was on the road.

I'm not feeling great about this one... especially if Brice cant go and Gary / Mast pick up a couple of early fouls..... a smart man would probably put money on Purdue -7.5 with Brice maybe not being able to go ..... BUT IM DUMB AS HELL SO SKERS BY 14 AND WERE RANKED WITHIN DAYS #rollskers

Dumb as hell or genius? Nostradamus pick here

If I recall, the #1 team lost that week and Texas certainly would have been #1 when the new rankings came out had we not beat them.

This is correct.  Texas was #2, and we kept them from being #1.  That was a great game to be at!

[hhcmatt]

I think the ranking notes are based on the AP poll. So if a team was #1 in the coaches poll, it might not be noted.
