Sidelines - Nebraska

I'm all in on #ExtendWoodson I might start a movement

There are really not any true bottom feeders this year besides Minnesota that's what makes it so tough. USC and Washington have enough talent to beat any team and Northwestern is well enough coached to beat anyone. Usually there are about 4 bottom teams you can chalk up to a W. Not this year.

Bold prediction: Berke plays limited minutes (8-10 minutes) and gets hot from three randomly on Saturday.

With the ACC talk imagine if Forbes fails to make the tournament again at Wake. Guy has been on the bubble for like 5 straight years now, what a waste for Hunter. he could've come here and been a legend forever instead he's sitting on the bubble at Wake Forest.

I feel like that 2018-2019 team had to have been up there

Penn State is tough people are sleeping on them. That NIU transfer he's a center I can't pronounce his name, but he is really good.

Teams I'm scared of that will give us problems UCLA, Oregon, Maryland, Illinois, Michigan Teams we match up well with Indiana, MSU, Purdue, Northwestern, Iowa Teams that could go either way Rutgers and Penn State (they look really tough so far) Teams we absolutely can't lose to USC, Washington, Minnesota

I never would've thought in the off-season Gavin would be one of the first guys being eeked out of the rotation. His physical tools are a match made in heaven for Fred and our system, but he looks lost out there. Maybe Wednesday's game will be a "figure shit out" game for Gavin and they play him 25+ minutes.

Skers- 85 SD- 63

I've never said anything bad ever about Jeff Goodman (how do you look in Orange)

The key to beating Kalk is to go right at his chest. He doesn't foul, so he's almost too conservative for his own good. Creighton has problems with Ashworth getting hurt, and they have major problems at the 3/4 position. Loved Juwan and if Conor plays like this all season we are a DANGEROUS team. Also give Nate Loenser whatever he wants keep that guy around forever.

Anyone catch any Illinois games yet this year? They are uber-talented but extremely young and are lost on defense. I really don't know what to think of them. They could win the league, but I could also see them missing the tournament because of their youth in the thick of big ten play. Jauckonis is an incredible talent at PG and Will Riley is breaking the reclassify myth in college basketball. Thoughts on them? Right now they are the team I'm most confused about

It's going to be even more painful this year with the football game the day after because there will be jayskers in my face shitting on Nebraska on Friday that will be in the trenches with me for the football game on Saturday. Screw all jayskers

I forgot to add I also hate this "we don't care about Nebraska, Nebraska only cares about us, we care more about the big east" approach Creighton fans have taken the past few years. Them pretending they don't care about an in-state rivalry, yeah ok whatever

Growing up in Omaha, I have always separated my hate for Creighton from the fan base to coach Mac and their product on the floor. I hate their fan base; I don't hate Coach Mac or their style of play I actually think they've had a lot of fun players to watch this past decade. That being said, growing up in Omaha, I've put up with Jayskers my entire life they suck. They always have their noses stuck so high up in the air for a program that has only made one elite eight you would think they've been to multiple final fours the way they act. At least Husker football fans have seen winning so can act that type of way (to a degree). Creighton has not. Describing jayskers to my out of state friends they all see the stupidity that being a jaysker is. It blows their minds when I tell them yeah so basically 70% of their fan base cheers for Nebraska in football, baseball, and volleyball then come December they all hate Nebraska. It's never made any sense to me they suck I really hate their fan base, but have a ton of respect for what Coach Mac has been able to build there.
