We split another week, this time a loss at home and a win on the road. This has been quite the season, frontloaded with many downs ('Fire Hoiberg' threads starting to stack on top of each other) to winning 6 of our last 8 games (conference games!). This is by far Hoiberg's best team, and that's riddled with injuries and starting former bench players. We've officially wrapped up the regular season. Now, anything goes.

Let's reflect on the season for a moment. We started out the season with some mild optimism. We beat some early cupcakes and were showing some decent form, then we get hit in the jaw by St. John's. Then optimism starts to dwindle as we lose 2 games back-to-back in the ESPN Events Invitational in Florida. Among injuries and starters not performing well, we still muster up three straight wins. We solidified our Nebraska state title and the energy in the program is starting to resurge. Although we went 1-2 against top 15 teams, we held Indiana close for awhile and we took Purdue to OT (or they took us to OT). We survived all of the cupcake trap games for the season, but our fans weren't expecting much out of the conference season. We start out 3-9 in the Big Ten (losing 6 of our last 7 games) and Hoiberg's name was essentially etched into the hot seat at this point. But then we go on a 6 game run over our next 8 games to close out the conference season. Having beat Creighton, Iowa twice, and Wisconsin all in one season. All of a sudden there's some long-shot NCAA tournament conversations and, more realistically, NIT hopeful conversation brewing. Aaaaaaaaaaaand then a shot back down to reality after losing the first round game in the Big Ten tournament to last-place Minnesota (now 5-12 in Big Ten tournament games, with Hoiberg seeking his first win in four tries). In retrospect, it was almost as if we went on this wild ride where the pinnacle would get you close enough to have hope, but not even close enough to have a shot at any postseason. All that said, I looked at some prior "Final Standings" HHCC threads and we're in a completely different place today. Last season still had some COVID scheduling adjustments, the season prior had massive cancellation and rescheduling impacts, and the season prior we saw Hoiberg crouched over with the flu in the Big Ten tournament. The world is different now than it was before. Health and safety, NIL funding, relaxed transfer portal rules and COVID extensions, Brad Davison finally retired, etc. We're losing some key contributors after this season, so there's likely as many unknowns next season as we've had over the last few seasons. How that will shake out? We'll find out soon enough. With that said, here are your final results for the 2022-2023 Husker Hoops Central Challenge. We have, yet again, a 1-time winner of the HHCC trophy. Handy Johnson took the lead in the final two weeks and never looked back. And for everybody else, you contributed to knocking Ken Pomeroy out of the Top 10. LNKtrnsplnt and hhcmatt also take the podium this season, with silver and bronze, respectively. Congratulations, Handy Johnson, and thank you everyone for taking part in HHCC this season! This game lives on because of the participation and contributions that you make throughout the season.

Back at it. Splitting some home-and-aways with a win and a loss. And putting a stop to a four-game losing streak. Much better than last week with two losses. Coming up, we have another home/away.

This was probably one of the most optimistic weeks of losing we've had in awhile. Let's see if it can translate into some more meaningful wins as we wrap up the non-conference slate.

THREE THINGS THIS HHCC ROUND: 1) Score prediction for Nebraska at Indiana (as usual). 2) (BONUS -5 points) Predicting the exact number of three-pointers made (3PM) by Nebraska during this game (e.g. I am looking for an answer like "10"). 3) (BONUS -5 points) Predicting the exact number of conference season wins (Dec. 7-10, Dec. 29-Mar. 5) -- (e.g. I am looking for an answer like "20," which indicates the number of wins you predict Nebraska will win in the conference.).

TWO THINGS THIS HHCC ROUND: 1) Score prediction for Nebraska at Penn State (as usual). 2) (BONUS -5 points) Predicting the exact number of assists made by Nebraska players during this game (e.g. I am looking for an answer like "5").

Wait a minute. Who's that in first? The one who's running HHCC? RIGGED, I TELLS YA, RIGGED! Quick. Deflect! Deflect! So, um.... Ken Pomeroy. He's in the Top 10. We need to do better. We're splitting another home and away this week in the conference slate. Home game vs. Ohio State (2-4 in conference play) and Penn State (3-3). We're splitting home and aways the following week with some favorable matchups as well. This is the point in the season where you start to position yourself as a top-half or bottom-half conference team. Which will it be?
