Could be they peaked and are starting a skid.

Basketball (like baseball) is all about peaks and valleys.

You want to peak come tournament time. I like to think the Huskers are still growing up.

The one good thing about this is Indiana moves up in the RPI.

We have two quality wins and two "double" quality wins according to the RPI. Indiana could make that 3 with a win like they had today.

I can't remember the last season that we even had over 2 quality wins.

Rootin' for Illinois here @ Penn St to keep the Huskers in the upper half of the Big 10 bottom dwellers.

 

[Red_Alert]

Illinois won @ Penn St.

Huskers now control their own destiny for the bottom 6.

Northwestern (5-6)(12-12)
Indiana........ (4-6)(14-9)
Nebraska..... (4-6)(12-10)
Purdue........ (4-7)(14-10)
Illinois......... (3-8)(14-10)
Penn State... (3-8)(12-12)

So, I'm going to say that Sunday is our last chance to make the tourney. Win at Sparty and then hold serve at home, we gotta chance. Probably need to go 2-1 in Indy to even up our neutral court record.
Another embarrassing road game, though, NIT is the best we can do if we don't run the table in Indy.

I do not think we're ready to do any of those things yet. But a guy can hope.

Realtime RPI now has us at #64 and projects us to finish 9-9 with a win over Wisconsin.

I'm pulling for Michigan St.

There's no way the Huskers can finish higher in the standings than them in conference play, but they can finish higher than Northwestern.

I just want Nebraska to finish in the top 6 of the standings and get a minimum NIT bid. I'll consider that a successful year.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

We were picked preseason to finish dead last.....

Tim Miles should get coach of the cot damn year

I mean we can still win the big ten turny right? slim chance. Ok say we do win the big10 does that mean we are the number one team in the big ten or does it go by over all record.

There is a regular season Champion and a tourney Champion.

The regular season Champion is the #1 team.

Ok that makes sense I couldnt figure out how they did that.
