The wife and I are go to Indy next week for the women's BIG 10 tournament. I was thinking about driving down to Bloomington to watch the men Wednesday night, What would the chances be of scoring some tickets once I got there ?

Actually, this game is really easy to gauge.  We didn't shoot the ball well.  Everything else after that was poor.  It's not the end of the world.  Have to come back Saturday, lose that game, and it is NIT bound.  

 

Illinois is not leaps and bound better than us.  We just played stupid at times.  Took dumb shots.  Passes were poor, and yet we still had a chance with about 3 minutes to go.

 

Let's also not forget somehow Minnesota can lose to this same Illinois team AT HOME, and be considered a tournament team.  Shouldn't be considered a bad loss.  Find 4 more wins somehow, and we will still be dancing IMO.

That would be a rather easy one.  You might need to do it through stub hub or something though for peace of mind.  But you could probably easily get one there very cheaply.

Never in it after that damn banked in three.

Some nights it's not your not. For this roster, it's not like they were ever going to win 15 games in a row.

Everyone has a bad day at work.

Regroup Huskers and get it going.

F*CK, the reality of what this loss MEANS is setting in....I hate Illinois, man. I hate em.

Honestly this is just a bump in the road compared to what we can still do. Ok maybe a pot hole, but not enough to stop a car from moving forward.

The Huskers had their chances to win it but just couldn't over that hump.

I'd say your chances are extremely good in the "decorative metal falling from the ceiling" section.

 

If you wanted seats in the non-lethal sections, I dunno...is it their senior night? I'd still say you'd have a decent chance.
