ECisGod Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 ESPN has put out their B1G preview. Not much love for the Huskers - all the "experts" have them either 13th or 14th. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/34845769/big-ten-2022-23-conference-preview-league-national-title-drought-end Quote Lunardi: I find Nebraska's Big Ten storyline fascinating. Growing up, the Cornhuskers partly defined college football for me. Now, they are close to irrelevant. In basketball, they remain the only power conference school never to win an NCAA tournament game. That should be impossible, given the overwhelming resources and random luck, but consider this: The 2018-19 Cornhuskers were headed for perhaps a single-digit NCAA seed before Isaac Copeland got hurt. Since then, they're 30-77 (24-67 under Fred Hoiberg) and picked for another second-division finish. Oh, and the football team fired another coach. Maybe moving to the Big Ten wasn't such a great idea. Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted November 4, 2022 Author Share Posted November 4, 2022 Something is pretty odd with Walker. Word is even the other players didn't/don't know what's going on. Speculation that he might not play Monday vs Maine. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 So....how many games do we will this year? By my count, there are 31 games on the schedule. I'm going to go with 8 wins. This sucks, I'm usually one that is optimistic before a season starts. It sucks because I feel like this is actually being optimistic. Quote Link to comment

ESPN's BPI predicts 14 wins (out of the 29 known games - 2 are unknown opponents in Orlando) w/ 8 conference wins. That may be overly optimistic, but I don't think it's unrealistic.

We lost our best player (maybe two) and are probably worse this year. I would guess 8 is about right. Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted November 24, 2022 Author Share Posted November 24, 2022 Odd that he can play tomorrow but not today. Quote Link to comment
