Just hopped over to the Nebraska team page....boy how things have changed in Lincoln

[HawkeyesRuleURFace]

They have Tim Miles in their banner now

Nebraska fans have cared about basketball for quite some time.


Problem is that we were the exact twin of the Iowa football team in a college basketball world. We've sucked forever and have never accomplished anything noteworthy in the entire history of our basketball program. (That is if you would want to call it a program as opposed to a "club" team.)


With a new arena, coach, and rebuilt enthusiasm; Nebraska's basketball program/club team has a chance to be competitive in the future.


Hell, we might even have a chance of winning an outright Big 10 title in the next 56 years. Crazier things have happened. Even in Iowa.

We had Tim Miles in the banner before last season...

He's only national coach of the year.

You know what would actually be super fucking sad? If Iowa had Ferentz in their banner.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

I love Nebraska basketball with all my heart

 

[iowajerms]

I remember one time while I was out there at York, they sports radio was talking about UN-L's coaches hiring. They asked the coach at Dana College (not a college anymore) if he would coach them. That coach laughed at the proposal, saying he could get better recruits at that little NAIA school.

I remember going to a Nebraska vs #1 Oklahoma State wrestling meet (which is probably the best wrestling meet I have ever been to) and thinking why the event wasn't in the basketball gym. It was only $1 to get in. It would have been the most money that gym would get all year.

Are we talking about the same Kirk Ferentz that waltzed into Lincoln last year on Black Friday? What's sad is Iowa football has been in the shitter since 2011 when Nebraska joined the B1G and yet Nebraska still struggled...last year when Iowa was mediocre at best they destroyed Thee Mighty Huskers 38-17 in Lincoln but I'm sure you're not worried Brasky...you even said the Huskers have the Natty locked up this year...LOEffinL

Since when is the Orange Bowl not a major bowl game during the BCS Era?

Also, we know we don't have football tradition like Nebraska and only 1 title and 1 Heisman. But I would bet since Nebraska won their last NC, Iowa has played in more BCS and January bowl games.

 

[Blackshirt]

Well I've never sunk low enough to visit the Iowa board, so whatever.

 

[HuskerinBig10]

Nebrasketball had the highest increase in attendance of any team in the country, Nebraska went from 10,000 fans to over 15000 fans per game. Having a new arena helped, because the new arena seats more.

Nebrasketball averaged over 15,000 fans per game.

Of the 18 teams with the highest attendance in basketball, seven were from the B1G. The B1G led the nation in basketball attendance for the 38th consecutive year.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

That makes me proud and slightly embarrassed at the same time ^^^

 

[Brasky]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Nebraska had the 13th highest attendance for basketball in the country.

Only dropped one game at home and it was to Michigan with a last second shot that didn't fall.

You aren't wrong.

We really struggled in neutral settings. Just a sign of a young team is all.

1-4 in a neutral setting.

That 1 win was vs Wake Forest in the ACC v B1G right?

Georgia.

We played Miami this year at home in the ACC challenge.
