Griesel on that last loose ball dive:

I actually like Higgins. But maybe that's just me. Great to see some Nebraska officials make it to the Final Four.

If you told me this before the game, I'd take this any day.

Sammy H takes a shot to the face. Then goes down court to drain a 3-pointer.

Absolutely terrible look to have so many people flocking to the concourse with 2 minutes to go in the half.

If a 22-10 record leads us to having to play on the road in the first round of the NIT to Mississippi State, I don't know that any remaining possible record this year is going to have us qualify for the local YMCA tournament.

This doesn't matter as much unless we take care of business tomorrow. Let's start that home stretch off strong!

It sounds like Amazon is playing hard ball with the Pac-12 and other media companies are dropping out of the race. Worst case scenario for the conference is getting a weak deal and teams start to leave.

FWIW:

It took them that long?? We're just ahead of our time.

I think it's because last season he was one-dimensional on offense. Now he's not only effective outside the perimeter, but he's all over the court. Much harder to defend when things are clicking.

Sam gets us.

Hoiberg said in the postgame that CJ has been shooting lights out in practice. Well. It's nice to see that finally translate in the game.

The headline during Pikiell's postgame: "3rd highest FG% allowed under Pikiell (58.2%)"

I said it last game and I'll say it again. Sam Hoiberg. Putting in the work that doesn't make the headlines, but still an important part to this team.

I've always seen Hoiberg at a 5-6 year type of tenure (it's been leaning much closer to 5 after the first 2 seasons), as treacherous as it's been, that chance for longevity is what we've lacked in our men's athletics as of late. But this doesn't understate how important next season is going to be. Any bit of step back next season is going to raise a lot of eyebrows. But between now and November, at least for me, there's no evaluation or criticisms. But starting in November we must start to see some results come to fruition.

Huskers - 66 Turtles - 78

Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio State, Penn State, Wisconsin, and Rutgers has lost to a bad team. Their resumes are completely destroyed and their postseason hopes are dashed. Or at least that's all I've heard in all of the postgame reports. Always a story of their team playing bad, not us playing well.

No. But it still might be enough tonight.
