Yesterday's win assures us of a winning

record through the Big 10 tournament and a post season bid for sure!!  Obviously there is work to do to get where we want to in post season.  But what a thrill in just two years to know we are going to keep playing into March.

technically, it only assures us of .500 at the bare minimum...

 

 

but I'll take it!

Did I do my math wrong?  16-10 with four regular season games and at least one tournament game gives me 16-15 through the tournament.

No, you're right.  We're guaranteed to finish over .500 through the conference tourney even if we lose out.  But, if we lose our post-season tourney first-round match-up after that, we'd only be at .500 for the year.  So, you're both right.  But I know what you meant, colhusker.  You were saying we'd have a winning record going into post-season tourney play.  And that's true.  We're a lock for some kind of post-season bid.

I also believe we finish the season on the high side of .500 which I will admit I didn't think was even remotely likely after starting the conference season 0-4.

I think this is 49'r's point:

16-14 Reg season + 1st round B10 loss + 1st round NIT loss = 16-16.

Thankfully, I think we'll do much better than that.

He is correct to that point, I said through Big 10 tourney.

Ah, yes. I misread your post. Sorry. I was up late celebrating winning 5 in a row!

[PimpMario]

We could go 16-16 with a loss in the NIT.

 

But that is awesome.

 

We are at worst in the NIT.
