Penn State is the head scratcher for me.  Ain't played nobody yet.  Yeah, they beat Purdue but this year's Purdue team does not look like anything special.  But that's what happens when you game the metrics by blowing out overmatched opponents.  Reminds me a little bit of the 2018-19 Husker team.

Idk if these random non-con away games for P4 teams are going to continue. But watching this Alabama @ North Dakota game has been fun.

 

Could be a new recruiting tool in the portal.

Also— keep an eye on this kid should he want to transfer. Was a walking bucket tonight.

He’s up to 40 on Bama.

Getting that true road win off our back prior to January this year is going to be nice!

Beating two mid-majors basically counts as 1 full true road win. Lol!

 

In all seriousness— Thanks for that catch though!

Was that even against a Division 1 team?

It was against a team from Omaha, that much I do know.

These turn of the calendar brackets should be fun to see. Here’s our updated Team Sheet.

ESPN power index has us as an 8 seed right now. Almost every game is a big opportunity the rest of the way and it starts with UCLA on Jan. 4. They are highly thought of currently but i think our defense matches up very well against them and what they do offensively. The crowd should be roaring for that one.

So am I seeing this correctly that if we beat OK in the opening round we would then face Duke (provided they win their opening round game)? Has NU ever played Duke in a men's basketball game before?
