Recap: Nebraska 77, Wisconsin 68 - BT Powerhouse
 
http://www.btpowerhouse.com/2014/3/9/5489056/recap-nebraska-77-wisconsin-68
 

 

The students stormed the court, and boy did they deserve it. Nebraska has been one of the coolest stories in college basketball this year, and it seemed that they would not be denied. Shields ended with 26 points and Petteway ended with 26 points and 10 rebounds. This game won't harm the Badgers too badly - a strong performance in the Big Ten Tournament should keep them in the 2-seed range. And now, barring a collapse in the BTT, Nebraska looks like they're going to be dancing.

Though the Badgers got away with some lazy passes, uncharacteristic unforced errors still hurt them. They committed 11 turnovers that directly led to 17 Nebraska points. The Huskers committed five turnovers, surrendering only two points off of them.

Huskers Stand Tall vs. Badgers, in Big Ten Race - Corn Nation

These are nights that you dream of. As a fan, as a coach as a player, nights like this are why you cheer for a team. This is why players bust their hump in the summer when no one is watching. This is why coaches work endless hours and blow through cocktail napkins drawing up plays. This is why you pour your heart and soul and hard earned money into being a fan. For nights like this. With everything on the line, with the entire college basketball world's attention focused squarely on you, with an entire fanbase pouring every ounce of energy into making as much noise as possible, to stake your claim that you belong. To erase any doubt that Nebraska can play with the best in the Big Ten. With the bright lights shining and the BTN cameras focused on the Huskers and the pundits tuned in, the Huskers seized the opportunity. They stood their ground when Wisconsin weathered the storm and punched back. They erased any lingering doubt that they belonged. They belong. Get you're dancing shoes out of the closet. Shine 'em up, Nebrasketball, you've got a spot on the dance floor.

BTP Team of the Week, March 3rd-9th: A Distinctly Nebrasketball Feel - BT Powerhouse

 

http://www.btpowerhouse.com/2014/3/11/5493514/btp-team-of-the-week-march-3-9-nik-stauskas-terran-petteway-kaminsky-nebrasketball

 

It's been a special season for Nebrasketball, and they got quite a few special performances last week (the full extent of which you'll see in a moment). Shields was the Huskers' shiniest star, producing two team-high scoring efforts in their quest to reach the Big Dance. His 17 at Indiana was huge, no doubt, but putting up 26 points on 10-17 shooting in the biggest game of your career is a sign of a special player. It takes a crew of special players to finish 11-7 in this conference, and Nebraska's got 'em.

Here's more:

"Walter Pitchford, Nebraska: 2 GP, 16 ppg, 7 rpg, 12-17 FG (71%), 6-9 3pt FG (67%)

By this point you may be accusing our staff of Nebrasketball bias, to which I respond: so the heck what? They're the best story in the conference this season and by golly they're a really good team. Pitchford is the third Husker on this week's team, and that makes Nebraska the first team to feature three players on the same Team of the Week (probably their most impressive feat of the season IMHO). Pitchford has been their three point specialist all season long, shooting 42% from deep on the year. He certainly helped those averages last week, hitting three triples in each of Nebraska's wins."

The regular season wrapped up last weekend with a flurry of great games. Michigan beat Indiana at home to celebrate its first outright Big Ten title since 1986, Aaron Craft went out with a win on his Senior Day against MSU, and Nebraska picked up one of its biggest wins in program history over Wisconsin, which put the Huskers in great position to make the NCAA Tournament. Heading into the Big Ten Tournament, here are the BTP Power Rankings
