Break it down for us @Jack_John_Mark

Honestly, I find it very strange that Moos has handled this the way he has. The guys are playing with a HUGE chip on their shoulder right now and they could easily make a deep run in this tournament.

If Nebraska somehow wins it with a limited rotation, Tim is gonna look like an amazing coach and there is no way Moos will be able to fire him. So I don’t understand the path he chose here.

As for this matchup, Nebraska should be favored in Lincoln. It would be disappointing to lose at the PBA to a kinda half-ass Butler team. They just aren’t that good, and if Palmer and Glynn keep scoring like they have been then we should win comfortably.

LMAO!!!

It would be fitting to get eliminated by cretin, but it's not likely both teams get that far.

I haven't seen the bracket. How far would they need to advance in order to face each other?

They must win two games.

Nebraska beats Butler and TCU.

Creighton beats Loyola Chicago and Memphis.

TCU has not been playing good basketball at the end of the season, and Nebraska has not played good basketball in 2019.

I will pick UNC Greensboro to dominate the NIT. My basketball knowledge is highly suspect.

Clemson should win the NIT.
