We wasted all our threes to on Purdue.

Gary with 2... Iowa with a 12 point lead. This could be a loooooong night.

I saw at least one Husker fan asking about parking and tickets on their Tweet about the game tonight. Then there was this.

What would be absolutely hilarious and not completely out of the question is if Husker fans match or outnumber Hawk fans

Haslam loves the Huskers and we love Haslam. Lol

According to Fran— officials were able to make it in and game should be a go. Fans on the other hand?? There might be 1000… maybe!

Oregon St was up 10-12 when I fell asleep. Woke up to see they lost in OT. Ughhh

Make the NET make sense pleaseeeee! San Francisco got a 5 point boost for beating the mighty San Diego by 20 last night. They went from 42 to 37 in the NET. They are also 0-3 in Q1 and 1-1 in Q2. St Mary’s got a 12 spot boost in the NET!!! 12!!! That’s the same boost I think we got for beating Purdue. Who did they beat? Portland. By 43. Obviously the NET favors how you beat someone more than who you beat. I know we had some gripes about our weakish non-con BUT the last two non-con games we kind of hurt ourselves by not hammering them into submission.

Gonzaga’s resume is terrible. How were they even ranked? Oh well— won’t be after tonight

Weak or.... Scared?

Iowa fans do not think we'll get this thing in tomorrow. "How do people think this happens?! It’s not just 30 players, a handful of coaches and 3 referees. You’re asking local people to drive in a blizzard to serve a ****ing ice cream cone and serve idiots beer. Stupid decision play if the forecast holds. Also the women’s team from IU isn’t getting in if they leave 3 hours earlier. If they didn’t leave today, no airline is going to be sending a plane into the scheduled winds with some snow."

Big one against Minny. They will probably be upper half of the conference and we're fighting for a Top 4 spot.

Markowski has had a rough go of it this quarter.... wow. That might be putting it lightly too.

This one could get interesting if we don't get our poop in a group.

100% we’d be in if the season ended today. We have more Q1 wins than most teams currently thanks to MSU and KSU.

If you remember wayyyy back to our team that didn’t dance and then got screwed in NIT selection… Hasla was one of the only metrics that had us “in” and he would almost tweet about us daily. I think he has a built in Huskers boost in that metric lol!

Would assume that’s illegal and could probably be shut down at any time. Definitely willing to pay $6 to not have the feed pulled right when Purdue cuts it to two lol!

Yep— KenPom is just one of multiple different metrics listed on team sheets used by the committee. Theres never been a team with 0 Q1 wins selected as an at large, which is why that Purdue game was so important. All of our other games this year will teeter between Q2 and Q1 outside of probably Wisco at home. Win that one and you’ve almost guaranteed yourself TWO Q1 wins.

Provided a huge meltdown, that Minny loss will remain, at minimum, a Q2 loss.

Interesting-- I'm not sure that I'd agree, but there is a history of high level KP teams being left out of the tournament. In most instances, the team had 1-2 metrics that were very different than a KP ranking. For instance a Top 40 KP, but a sub 75 RPI or sub 50-60 NET. Should our metrics that I posted earlier today remain pretty much the same. I don't think we'd have a problem getting in. Especially with 3 Q1 wins already in our pocket. I know those could change.

Are you saying if we finish at 35, we’d be on the bubble?

I would assume the team has already left or will soon be leaving?

I think I saw that that both Wednesday games are on Peacock this year too. So if you want to watch some Wednesday madness… you’ll need it. Unfortunately the Huskers won’t play until the games are on BTN.

All of our metrics really kind of line up this morning for the first time this year HaslaMetrics: 25 (this one always seems to be high on us) RPI: 30 (According to Team Rankings) T-Rank: 39 KenPom: 39 NET: 41

Hey Hey Hey— your post had me curious so I hopped on the latest net and checked and by golly we jumped all the way from 46 to 41 last night thanks to a plethora of teams losing or looking like poo!
