2025-26 Season Notes

[ECisGod]

NCAA is making a few small rule changes for the 25/26 season.

College basketball rules will have coach's challenges like the NBA, but more needed to reduce monitor reviews - CBSSports.com

100 days until the BYU exhibition, 116 days until the regular season opener against West Georgia.

The BYU exhibition is the season to me - damn I hate that school.

We are now under 100 days until the season opener against West Georgia (98 to be exact).

ESPN & CBS Sports each have really early and general season previews (Nebraska isn't mentioned in either of them).

We will get to that super hyped-up game against West Georgia... after 8 Husker football games....

In the meanwhile, hold tight.

Remind us again in November. We are still in July.

Do you say the same 100 days out from football season?

I know that football is the end all be all of most people on this board (and the state), but I would rather count down the days to basketball season.

I see what you are saying. You are riight - it is good to get excited about BBall as well.

Personally speaking, my love for hoops doesn't get going until October each year. My favorite month too.

Lawrence, Blue, Hoiberg and Jacobsen all working at PG so far.

Berke still battling "nagging injuries."

This team is abundant with newcomers. And I am not opposed to it. In fact I am actually very interested.

Curious how coach Hoiberg puts it all together.
