OK, with Pitchford being 6'10" and having a 40"+ vertical ...

What's the over/under on opening tipoffs won for the Nebraska basketball team this year?

 

Do we finally get to stop conceding the opening tip to the other team?

I'd also like to get rid of that tradition of not winning an NCAA tourney game.

Thirty-one games for sure, including the B1G tourney.  More if we make the post-season.  But just going with the regular season 30 games, for setting the over/under, I'd say the over/under for opening tips won this season should be set at 20.5.  I'm saying we should win 2 out of every 3 opening tips this season.

 

So, are you taking the overs?  Or the unders?

You are working under the assumption that Walter will win a starting job???

We'll put him in there for the opening tip.

I would as well, but one never knows.

Okay Norm, you realize that if we do this, someone (hint, hint) is going to have to make it a point to keep track of this crap!
