7 pt win...6.5 inches

Nebraska - 78 Wisconsin - 69 4

Yeah, they will be out for blood when we meet them again in the Sweet 16, Elite 8 or Final 4 this year

Ha, it is funny how much our perspective has changed since the Minnesota 2H debacle. I look back at my early posts in this thread and cringe. To be fair though, the 2H against Minnesota was one of the most pathetic 20 minute stretches I could remember in quite some time and that was against what I thought was a terrible basketball team. It turns out Minnesota doesn't appear to be all that bad of a squad. The Creighton game and the 2H of Minnesota appear to be an anomaly at this point (hopefully!). I guess the moral of the story is that fortunes and our perspective can change quickly. I'll try to remember after the next bad loss but this is precisely why fan is short for fanatic! Fortunately we don't get paid to make head coaching decisions or Fred would have been run out of here hundreds of times over again

FYI that this deal only includes the Women's NCAA tournament...it does not cover the Men's as CBS and Turner still own those rights through 2032.

A good old fashioned curb stomping was a nice way to start!

That was a statement win. Beating a blue blood, even one that's down a bit will open eyes. Time to emphatically back up this win on Saturday against a ranked and beatable Badgers team!

Well, I can certainly understand your confusion as the intent was that was my pick. I am not exactly sure what happened!

@HuskerFever...I think my prediction for the SCST game was accidentally omitted. It wasn't a great prediction but better than a zero

By the looks of it, we might be solidly in the field

The real sweet spot should be getting to 11-12+ conference wins!

NU - 82 ND - 55

Yeah, this info is available for AP voters but not Coaches. When we received the 4 AP votes a few weeks ago, this came from one voter voting us #21...not 4 voters voting us #25.

4 votes in the Coaches poll this week

Yes, enjoyed Tampa Bay and the atmosphere. Husker fans easily outnumbered Texas fans by probably an 80%/20% margin, which shows again we have the best fans in the world. Their senior dominated team may have gotten us this year but we'll be back to finish business next year.

NU 74 KSU 68 Clean sweep today!

In Tampa so will be watching a national championship winning team. Will have to catch basketball on DVR. GBR!

Yeah, they tumbled 27 spots in KenPom down to 68. That will certainly leave a mark. FWIW we're currently at 63

Ah, they must have us winning 13 conference games

More games. But we won't be counting those much longer. Just the days until the next coaching search when optimism can return.

Embarrassing effort. Atrocious basketball in the second half. Outworked, out hustled and out coached. A lame duck, bad basketball coach, without his top player, made adjustments and out coached our soon to be lame duck coach. We will get to compete with Minnesota for a new coach in a few long months. Just a disgusting display tonight and I am usually on team sunshine.

You could say that he gambled and lost
