    It kinda sucked big-time, Eli Rice could have sorely helped NU when teams D'ed up C.J. hard. He would have been a nice change-of-pace.... oh well, next year. Always lookin' to next year. Cubbies fans know how that wound up in '16. There's always hope, Big Red. Keep Grindin'!!!

    I need to commend all of the NU fans at the game. I heard the noise for a while in the 2nd half. Thanks for doing your part, and hopefully I can join you next year at the big dance when we are cheering on our Huskers!!!! GBR always!!!!

    Lots of 1st and 2nd round sites within decent proximity.
    Cleveland, Denver, Milwaukee, Providence, Raleigh, Lexington, Seattle and Wichita.
    Regionals not so much.
    Indianapolis, Atlanta, Newark and San Francisco.
    Final 4 in San Antonio.

    If the Cubbies can win it, the Huskers (and the Indians) can too! 😁

    NU fans tried to bring the energy, it just wasn't meant to be. Just talked with J-Law and told him how proud we are of him. Even gave him a hug. That kid is very cordial and a nice fellow as well. I'm happy to root for these guys, who seemed to genuinely love one another. GBR Always.

    CanadianHusker reacted to The Polish Rifle in Screw Trev   
    I hate to dwell on this, but he really F'd this team. 99% of getting a dub or two in the tournament is matchup. I highly doubt we get A&M if Trev doesn't do what he did. NW the past two seasons get overrated, ice cold, mid majors. We get a P5 team with a top 10 ceiling, playing their best ball.  So thanks Trev, parting gift of a lifetime.

    This. I've lost people, that's the worst. Been divorced, that's next. I've made a lot of long distance moves in my life. This kind of feels like that. You know when you move that you are never really going to see people in your life again from where you are moving from and it's sad.

    Still the most wins in a season for this program since before many of you were born.
     
    I'm disappointed. Demoralized. It was embarrassing. The aTm fans were jerks. All of those things.
     
    But the sun came up this morning. I have a tee time. And my guys were still the best team we've put out there in close to 3 decades.
     
    So, I'm keeping my season tickets and I'll see you all at the vault next fall.
     
    Best regards,

    And that's where we are in this rebuild. In Fred's first three years, we had a smidgen of inexperienced basketball talent and low- to mid-level athleticism. Last year and this, we added experience and basketball talent. For next year, we need to add more athleticism without sacrificing basketball IQ and experience.
     
    That's a tough needle to thread at a place like Nebraska.

    Perhaps someone more skilled at getting video shots could put this moment up but at about the 17 minute mark in the 2nd half, a TA&M player absolutely RUNS OVER KT sending him flying to the floor. The ref is trailing the play. How he could have missed that is mind boggling. I know it was just one play but it was indicative of how this game was, and other games are, played. The frustration of that no call is what I believe caused KT to get T'd up later AND what led to Gary jawing with the A&M bench later on and getting a T. Nothing but admiration for the athletic abilities of the A&M players but this kind of basketball without consequence is bad for the game. There are plenty of contact sports like football and hockey. Please, somebody, rescue basketball from this.

    The stadium was maybe 60% full. Of those there, it was 70% Nebraska.
     
    I'm so numb. Heartbroken.

    I second that. This year was definitely different from 2014. We weren’t even on the bubble at the end. They are going to be back next year after they grab a couple of transfers in the portal. And I really like how Brice ended the season. He will be very good next year.

    As a fellow Cubbies fan, I couldn’t agree more. Fred will deliver sooner than later.

    That’s great! Except for the Gunners thing! 😁 I have found there are more EPL fans on average across Canada than I knew in the US. Of course, it’s really taken off in the last decade or so as well. I do find the announcing and commentary for the EPL in Canada much better than the US. We have the EPL on Fubo and all of the shows and commentary are from the UK. And yes, Rice has turned out to be amazing. I wasn’t as sure at the start of the season but he has made me forget all about Partey. I think Ange will bring Spurs to challenge for titles, but like Arteta it will take a couple seasons. COYS!!! 😁

    I’m not so sure. That year we made a run at the end to get in. I felt good about our chances this year in early January.

    Sheesch!
    this has been a great year!!!
    we outperform our 12th place prediction.
    our third place finish is in a conference that is undefeated so far (except for us) in both the NCAA and the NIT first rounds.
    we made it to the dance.
    we don’t get to play a nobody at the dance and pretend we beat someone good.
    the last game and a half exposed our weaknesses.
    Fred Hoiberg and Co. will continue to improve Nebrasketball.
    it’s been a great—and totally unexpected—run this season.
    can’t wait for next year!!
