Everyone else pulling for the Huskers? It'd be great to see them take down a giant in the Big Dance... Just noticed KenPom has them at 49. Should move up a little from 50 in the RPI as well.

Still have some work to do but damn, GBR.

Most of us are trying to stay grounded. It won't take much to pull the rug out from under this thing.

If nebraska takes care of business at home theyll ne dancing. Thats it. Thats all they need to do.

Well, Tuesday is going to be a big game.

Basically do or die for the gophers and Iowa could really use a win as well for other reasons.

They'll need to do more than that.

If they only go 2 of 4 (home wins), they'll still need 2 wins in the Big 10 Tournament IMO.

They would take Minnesota before Nebraska right now.

I think 2 home wins and 1 in the b10 tourney is enough only because that would include a top 10 rpi win and likely keep nu around 40-45 in the rpi even with 2 road losses. Clearly winning 1,of the road games locks it but isnt necessary imo.

Pulling for them to pad IU's resume.

It would be cool to see Nebrasketball make some waves in the tourny. Same with NW.

OK.

I didn't realize you still had hopes of getting into the NCAA's. IU's remaining schedule is damn tough.
@ Wisconsin, Iowa, Ohio St, Nebraska, @ Michigan


How many do you think you need?

 

[Red_Alert]

4 wins there and 1 in the Big 10 Tourney will probably do it.

 

[Red_Alert]

Maybe 3 to finish the regular season and 2 in the Big 10 Tourney.

Keep in mind the selections usually occur before the B1G tourney final, so it's only the first couple games that matter.

you know that winners of conference tourneys get auto bids right?
