Post Season Tournament Possibilities

I know this isn't Husker related but how in the world is nova ranked ahead of creighton? That is insane. Creighton beat them by a combined 50 pts between the two W's. Creighton is also number 1 in the big east and nova is 2 but the AP has nova 8 and creighton 9. That makes no sense to me

Nova has a better record and their losses were all to teams in the top 10.

I see what you are saying but Creighton was NR and #18 when they demolished Villanova.

I could see the argument more if there were 3-4 spots between them. Being right next to each other, that argument doesn't hold much water, imo.

Ain't this the truth:

Takes some getting used to this #Nebrasketball world where road games against Illinois and Indiana are considered "bad losses."

I REALLY want to see this team in the dance. We are playing very good defense and also scoring. In the last 10 years, we have had teams with good defense but we couldn't score to save our lives. I want to see if this team can win our first tourney game.

I think in most years that statement will be an anomaly, Indiana and Illinois are usually pretty good, but it still sounds awesome.

Minnesota won last night over Iowa so we need to keep pace!

Come on Huskers!

Just keep on doing what you have been doing recently! Just win baby!

Nice link up Mavric!

Following all those game results makes for interesting conversations yet I believe if we just take care of our own sh*t, we are in. It fly's or falls with what we do ourselves!

You mean their losses were all to Creighton.

Really like that link. Will help me decide for who to root for...

Lunardi says that Nebraska can go 2-2 down the stretch, win a conference tournament game, and find themselves in the tournament. If this is the case, our best case scenario might actually be finishing 5th and playing the "worst" team in the Big Ten.

 

[GSG]

I say we just win the rest of these regular season games and try to get a bye

USA today projected Nebraska and Minnesota IN!

This could be about as good of a draw as the Huskers could get - barring a tremendous run in the B1G Tourney.
