According to this USA TODAY article Nebraska still has some work to do to get in.

I do not follow the basketball team like many of you do but thought I would share it.

USA Today knows nothing about sports.there are 108 brackets used by various sources. Nebraska is in all 108 brackets.

I don’t think anyone is disagreeing that we still have work to do.

3 games at home and the other in Columbus Ohio, need to win two games..

I would be surprised if Nebraska's name is called on selection day. Team is all over the place
Wait, you WOULD be surprised if they DID get in?

I still think odds are in their favor of getting in, therefore it would be more surprising if they are left out. Now if they lose out, they don’t deserve a bid, but as others have said, if they take care of business at home, I don’t see how one can leave them out.

I would. It's just a really weird roster. Like a bunch of misfit toys thrown together. They have no point guard. It's just awkward. It would be very cool to see all 3 d1 teams called. UNL and UNO could very well be playing in the play in games on that Tuesday or Wednesday. Which for Omaha would really blow. If you win your conference auto berth you should be auto into the big bracket

Mind you it’s no longer a play in game..
NCAA Tournament consist of 68 teams.

So here’s the thing, all of the teams that are in a p4 conference and are <10ish seeds are all over the place and have misfit pieces. We can’t go 0-4 or 1-3 but we’re solidly in along with a lot of other flawed teams.

Yeah I think if NU goes 2-3 (that assumes a loss in the B1G tournament), they still squeeze in but it’s close. If one of those wins is over Michigan or at Ohio State, there’s a little more cushion. Win 3 and I think they’re in really solid shape.

That’s been typical of Fred’s rosters here, misfits thrown together. Completely lacking at one position or another. Always a couple of solid players away from having a consistently decent team.

UNO has a great group of coaches, led by Crutchfield. Having lost their star player to the portal after last year makes this seasons results even more impressive. I can see UNO and St Thomas moving past the Dakota schools as top dogs in the summit, their urban locations give them an advantage in my opinion.

It’s as simple as everyone has already stated. Win 2 more were safely in and probably a 9 seed. Win only 1 more, well, the 1 win better be Michigan and even then we’re probably looking at a play in game. 0-4 is game over, and like you said we would’ve proved we don’t belong.
 
CBS just said we’re on the bubble when talking about our game against Michigan. 3-1 is what we need.
