Mmmmm, I can't go there. If they win a tourney game maybe but they're still behind a couple 90's teams for me.
Hoiskers are 1.5 dogs on the road over the Hoosiers

- Start date
That was a f you for the nonsense with the clock.
Trying to make up for his missed bunny a minute earlier 😂… he needed about another 18” on that vertical
Some of those Nee teams had some really good players.
19 pts, 6 boards, 5 assists and 1 turnover. I'll allow it.
I think we can finish 3rd.
The 91 team was the best
Not sure about a couple of teams but the one with the Polish rifle and winning the Big 8 tournament and was seeded 3rd is the one I’m thinking of..
They would get my vote too. Cip also had a couple teams that would have made the tourney if the field had been 64-68 back then.
Yea, back in those days only the conference champs were in the NCAA tournament..
Even after at-larges got in, the field was only 32 for a long time, and 48 for several years after that. Sad that Andre Smith and Jack Moore, for example, never made the tourney.
Well, to be honest, I'm more of a casual Nebraska basketball fan, but I like their ball movement, defense is good, and we have 3 or 4 guys who can hit 3's.
To be sure, it's the best Nebraska basketball team in a LOOOOOOOONG time!
I truly believe officials sometimes want to watch a closer game so they call it to let the team get closer than go the other way and the game ends up 15
It looked like they got a call, "make this game close." Then another one, "not that close."
I was at the game where he ended Billy Tubbs OU career … sat 5 seats down from thst noted humanitarian Graham Spanier😂
Think bigger picture. Is IU’s coach ——-? Doing all they can to save his job. Woodson is pretty well liked.
Those were two different teams. The 1991 team that earned a #3 seed finished runner-up in the Big 8 tourney. Piatkowski was a bench player on that team. I believe the team he led to the conference tournament title got hosed in the seeding and ended up a #6, and had to go to Long Island for the regional. I'm still pissed about it!
I agree. It was comical watching their guy shuffle his feet 2-3 times and then do a Euro step on top of it with no call. One time he took 3 steps after a foul on the floor and they called continuation. Officiating is just bad all around these days and these refs seem to have some sort of Napoleon complex. As fans, we are always going to hate on officials, but right now is just awful.
Nebraska = 16-1 @ Home
Nebraska = 2-7 on the Road
That isn't a crowd noise discrepancy
It’s usually a shooting percentage discrepancy by the Huskers. Definitely not just a foul discrepancy.
The radio guys last night were saying that the majority of major college basketball teams have around 3 wins on the road this year
Just look at the Minnesota game they went ice cold in the second half and blew a double digit lead and lost I think Iowa game was similar plus turnovers
Which was ironic that the same thing happened to us in Minneapolis except it seemed to me the Gophers just wanted it more in the second half..
NU has looked good - maybe even impressive- the past 3 games. It is against teams NU should beat, but they still gotta deliver. And they did.
I hope like hell they keep playing good basketball. You can dream a little….
Yes they have and Minnesota has too..Been saying of our last 7 regular season games Minnesota at home will be our toughest game to end the season..
Really encouraging to see the Huskers - especially Williams and Lawrence - step up when Indiana made that second-half run.
The first half was fun to watch, but Indiana looked disinterested and half-asleep. Was really great to see NU step on gas pedal when the game got tight.

I say Ohio state on the road will
Be tougher
I don't know if it will be tougher than @Ohio State, but I do know if they beat us at home they become a bubble team, and for that I know they are going to be a tough tough out
They're all gonna be tough. I've been Mr. Positivity all season compared to most, but I have to admit I'm not going to breathe until the regular season ends and we haven't stubbed our toe in an unexpected way. Losing at home would SUCK.
