Fred. Friggin. Hoiberg!

Big question... do we still get BTN on Thanksgiving?

Double nut kick If that’s happen!! We’d have to watch Noah have a hell of a game and then be late to the Huskers basketball.

The only positive? We don’t have to worry about the game in front of us running long!

So.. uhh.. are we just hoping that we can add a team or are we shopping elsewhere at the moment?

FIFY

Umm....

How bad is Penn State?

Would be interested to hear why someone picked last years Jucos vs this years.

I will say that it’s a big joke that we’re less than a week out and teams can just drop with no penalty. I could see dropping and staying home because Covid, but not dropping and going to another state.

Sounds like we’re looking for replacements four our tournament when we should be looking at replacing someone elsewhere.

If there’s one trend that’s a little scary at the moment, it’s that I’ve seen a lot more teams pulling out of tournys than scheduling them... so the chances of us losing more teams are much higher than adding a team or two. Maybe it’s time for AD’s just to start tweeting out open dates like some HS ADs are! Only half joking.

My goodness-- COVID is everywhere right now. Playing the games in Missouri isn't any "safer" than Nebraska. Honestly, how close are we to just shutting down college athletics for a while? Probably closer than many think.

Didn't even need to create a new thread.

"Agreed, here’s why: 1 Nebraska returns only two guys who averaged double-digit minutes last year. 2 Each of those guys averaged single digit points, rebounds. 3 They have a collection of transfers and JUCOs, including leading JUCO scorer nationally last year, a head case, amd even if these guys were all studs it will take time for newbies to gel." At least someone halfway did their homework.

Yeah— we’ll be lucky to get a few games in next week I think.

I just hope we get to play 1-2 games next week.

This. Is. Gold. If I could give more than 1 up vote, I would!

Not surprising, but SLU isn't too worried about us. "Nebraska is terrible" We'll be "the worst power conference team in the country"

Oh-- Didn't know it was a recruiting weekend for them. That changes things!

Never too early to start scouting our board competitors..... here's the best I could find. McNeese: NONE SLU: https://www.billikens.com/forum/index.php?/forum/101-billikenscom-main-board/ SFU: https://hilltophoops.home.blog

That would only leave SFU as the possible non-televised game. If we get that on BTN, then GA Tech will be on some ESPN channel and Creighton will most certainly be somewhere on TV.

From my understanding, it's more a round-robin type setting than a tournament type setting. So you play your games and go home. There's no "final" game.

When I go to Huskers.com and the basketball page, I see McNeese at 11 AM on the 25th

Huskers 79 McNeese 62 Non Con Win %- 68% Total Win%- 50%
