We need to work our way out of this mini slump. In my opinion, Mast is trying to do too much on the floor & Berke needs to be a dawg on the glass. Other than Frager, im not worried about the rest as they have a lot experience!

The Iowa game was our most difficult remaining regular season game, and if we were to finish the regular season with just 4 losses, it'd be hard to see us not getting at least a 3 seed.

I agree.

I have been going back to that sight posted earlier in the thread. They break it down pretty well. 5 more wins gives us a 61% at a 3 seed and a 37% chance at a 2 seed. Different ways to get to 27 wins though. We can lose one more regular season game and then beat a good team in the B1G tournament and likely end up better than if we win 5 straight and go 1 and done in the conference tournament. 2 seed seems within reach but we have to be perfect, or very close to it, to get back to the 1 seed line.

If we get to 30 wins, we will have won the conference tournament (and all 5 remaining regular season games).
 
ESPN's guess today has the Huskers as a 4 seed the South region playing Steven F Austin in Oklahoma City. B1G has 11 teams in the bracket with Michigan as the overall #1 seed and UCLA & USC as the last 2 teams in.

CBS's guess today has the Huskers as a 3 seed in the West region playing Portland State. Ohio State is in the First 4 Out.

This is pretty cool to look at as well. Giving us a better than 60% chance at the sweet 16.
