2015-2016 B10 Schedule

[bball23]

Just announced.  Here is what we get:

 

Nebraska’s 2015-16 Big Ten Opponents
Home-and-Home: Indiana, Northwestern, Penn State, Purdue, Rutgers
Single-Play Home: Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio State
Single-Play Away: Illinois, Iowa, Michigan State, Wisconsin

 

 

 

I personally like it.  Kind of bummed we don't get Wisy, Iowa or MSU at home.  But the home/home series are vs teams NU can beat at home and on the road (if we play well).  Then hopefully sweep or win at least 3 of 4 home games vs the "home only" teams.  This is a schedule where if we play well we can end up 10-8, 11-7 again hopefully if not better.

I thought the same thing. Depends in what order we play evertbody, but as of this minute it is managable.

Why we play/don't play who we play twice

That's a schedule we can do some damage with IMO.

We'll have to win with it and be mindful about not scheduling too much garbage pre-conference

Given our probable results this year, we likely will get a lower rung ACC team in the Big Ten/ACC challenge.

If I had to take a stab at it...I would say Clemson.  But, I'm not sure they really base the matchups on how a particular team did the year before.  JMO

Right now we slot in right around the Pitt/NC State region I would think.  Either one of those would be a welcome opponent.  I suppose it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility to draw Florida State again either, which would kinda suck.

As far as the B1G schedule, we have no excuse not to finish in the top 1/3 of the league with that schedule...and we'll probably need to in order to get to the dance.

 

I'm pissed about not getting Iowa at home for the second time in 3 years, too...

[HuskerFever]

Very favorable schedule!

[hskr4life]

I like that schedule!  Very nice set up by names and times played.

 

Personally, I think we may have a chance to get a bigger name to come to Pinnacle... not top tier, but bigger name.

Next year is our year. And I am not trying to be facetious here.

For a second Jimmy I thought you had gone from being a Red Sox fan to a Cubs fan.

[Red Don]

I'm with Jimmy & Dimes.  We will be contenders next year!

 

(and I don't think our pre-conf schedule this year did us any favors)
