Right-- I'm not saying that weekend 1 or even 2 for that matter is make or break for the season. However, as you mentioned, having a solid 1st and 2nd weekend would mean that we're probably ahead of the learning curve for some of the young guys and good things are on the horizon. A not so great 1st and 2nd weekend means that we'll have a lot of work to do.

Big wins can overshadow a lot of warts on Selection Sunday. Not many teams in the conference, if any, will be able to point and say “we have wins over Wisconsin and Purdue” but we realistically could.

Oh the days! 10 years later and now you have to check yourself out.

Definitely our Non-Con SOS will be a talking point if we’re anywhere in bubble territory.

That’s sad— even though that letter was… woof… she seemed to be a lifelong Husker fan and attended the basketball games. This means she passed before seeing what so many of us are hoping to see once in our lifetimes.

Obviously Team A is us. Team B? Memphis. Top 25 team, was a “lock” for the tournament. American trending toward possibly only getting 1 bid.

I like Blind Resume Tests... so... who you got between these two if you had one bid to the tourney? It's probably pretty close. Team A: (15-6, 5-5) NET 62, KPI 27, SOR 38, BPI 68, KPom 53 Q1: 3-3, Q2: 2-3, Q3: 3-0, Q4: 7-0 NET SOS 67, Non-Con SOS 317 AVG NET Win 171, AVG NET Loss 59 Team B: (15-5, 4-3) NET 59, KPI 20, SOR 28, BPI 60, KPom 60 Q1: 2-2, Q2: 5-1, Q3: 3-2, Q4: 5-0 NET SOS 91, Non-Con SOS 68 AVG NET Win 145, AVG NET Loss 96

Results (1/28/24): While it's probably likely that both Memphis and FAU are in... the American is eating each other up right now. Memphis is 4-3 and FAU has had a lot of close calls. Memphis and FAU play each other twice. Neither seem like a Top 25 team right now though. Memphis will most likely fall behind us in the NET and we in the 60's.

Well know quite a bit after weekend #1 crazily enough.

Especially when you had the Duke OC as they make it sound.

NET drops to 62. Quads: 3-3, 2-3, 3-0, 7-0 Remain Quad games as of today 1: Wisconsin, @Illinois, @Northwestern, @OSU 2: @Indiana, @Michigan 3: Michigan, Penn State, Minnesota, Rutgers Safe to say winning out at home is a near must.

Results (1/27/24): These are more fun to do when you’re inflated and not deflated. But alas, we move on. Non-Con opponents outside of KSU did really well. They may drop to a Q2 for a bit. Bubble games with so many games left are meh to go too in depth, but a lot of other bubbly teams sucked today too.

Big drops back into mid to upper 50s for both KP and TRank.

Game 11… must win… we need you PBA! Huskers 78 Wisco 72

That’s ridiculous

I’ll stick with what I said earlier… NCAAs or bust. Theres no reason that shouldn’t be achieved at this point either.

This. I’m tired of not even having a chance to do something we’ve never done before.

It shouldn’t be pointless though… that’s part of the problem. This team is 15-5 and has beaten a likely national championship contender. Something is seriously wrong if this team doesn’t dance.

Was better for a second. Thought we might cut it to 12 or something crazy.

We all are and frustrations are understood completely.

UMD was dead last in B1G 3PT%… 28%. At some point you’ve got to realize that everyone having their “day” against you isn’t just luck. We’ve got to figure out why and fix it.

Venue’s are still drivable for anyone that wants to go watch some ball though! Ha!

Committee at this rate is going to look at our road record and not even have to get to the point spread.

It’s not just that we’re losing our road games… it’s that we’re getting blown out of the water. We aren’t even competitive.

Miles “flash in the pan” NCAA team had 4 wins away from PBA including 3 true road wins and one was at MSU. We’ve got to find a way to play on the road.
