ChubbyLumpkin Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 1. Not terribly insightful but if the team is going to have a slump and bottom you'd want it to be now in January. The 2013-2014 team went 3-6 in the first half of B1G play before finishing 8-1. Still a chance to bottom out, figure it out, and catch some momentum. 2. Barring a complete collapse in the 2nd half of B1G play, Huskers have still taken a step up in last few years. The 2013-2014 team had 30-point losses on the road to OSU and Michigan where they got completely boat-raced. This years team hasn't had a game they've been completely out of early and overall the team hasn't had a loss like that since probably @MSU last year. Tl;dr Nebraska isn't complete garbage and has time to figure it out 1 Quote Link to comment

I hope we turn it around, but from what I have seen from Miles in his tenure here, I would not expect much from this team this year in making a run to the tournament. Quote Link to comment

Not at 3-6, and 10th place in the league. They've probably gotta go 7-4 down the stretch to be included in the NCAA tourney.... 6-5 at worst. Quote Link to comment

It'sNotAFakeID Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Maybe Copeland being out will open up some things. Sometimes having too many options is a bad thing. I'd imagine Miles will go Watson-Allen-JPJ-Roby-Borchardt. We'll need Akenten Borchardt and Heiman to step up, but maybe moving Roby to the 4 will be better for him. Quote Link to comment
