That is for all of college basketball?  Wow...

It just points out how frustrating this group is.  Several of them were somewhat successful elsewhere before coming here.  Many were great shooters.  Get here? Can't it the rim sometimes.

 
Huskers played 14 games against 11 tournament teams.  That's over 50% of their schedule.  

That includes:

Illinois 1 - twice

Michigan 1 - once

Iowa 2 - Once

OSU 2 - Once

Purdue 4 - Once

Creighton 5 - Once

Wisconsin 9 - Twice

Georgia Tech 9 - Once

MSU 11 - Once

Maryland 10 - Twice

Rutgers 10. - Once

Unfortunately, we went 1-13 against them.  But, that's a brutal schedule. Average margin in losses was 16.46 points.  Not sure how, but it's the 39th at SOS.  Interestingly, 9 of the top 10 SOSs are Big Ten teams.

If the Big Ten stays this tough, we will have our work cut out to even be middle of the road Big Ten.  On the flip side, if we make it to the tournament with this type of schedule, maybe we will be able to actually win a game.

I'm sure the Doane game hurt our SOS  in the NET.  It is fourth at Ken Pom because it excludes Non-D1 games.

 
I'm going to do some analysis of where NU sits at the end of the year versus high major teams once the dust settles on the NCAA Tournament. Just haven't had the time or energy to do so yet.
