There's no moral victories after that one. Especially when we had a whole week to plan and only one game for the week. That was. Well. Tied for the largest ever loss margin in that series. It also wasn't a great performance for HHCC either. I had to look back a couple of years and it seems this is the worst average HHCC scoring since December 7, 2021. That was a home game against Michigan, losing 67-102. The average HHCC score was 95.4 (vs. 87.9 in this week's game). On the bright side, even Ken Pomeroy and Bart Torvik didn't even break the top 20 scores for this week.

Anything that involves "Tied for largest losing margin in the series" warrants a bit of reaction.

So glad we could end this bloodbath of a prediction thread.

Prediction: Nebraska 72 - Creighton 70

oNE - 78 Mini - 72 10

"I could've done that for $2,000!!" "....wait.......... *I* could have done THAT for $2,000."

That explains the FNBO smell over there.

TWO THINGS THIS HHCC ROUND: 1) Score prediction for Nebraska at Minnesota (as usual). 2) (BONUS -5 points) Predicting the exact number of conference season wins (Dec. 6-10, Jan. 3-Mar. 10) -- (e.g. I am looking for an answer like "20," which indicates the number of wins you predict Nebraska will win in the conference.).

If you want to know what an SEC echo chamber looks like, look no further than the comments:

Regardless, I really hope they make it a point that you get penalized for soft scheduling.

Another perfect week for the Huskers. We're now 7-0, which is one of our best starts in 30 years. This next week is a big one. Just one game to prepare for. Ken Pomeroy is currently Top 10 and Bart Torvik is Top 15. There's more work to do, everyone!
