Good find.. Would have never guessed that..
That was the year losing to Kansas costs Nebraska the NCAA bid …NCAA also snubbed us with 13-5 conference record..

Nebraska is playing well and at Pinnacle Bank where it’s hard for road teams to win. I’m too chicken to take the points though.
It is probably a decent matchup for NU but will all depend on how much physical play they allow the MSU big guys to do in comparison to what they allow NU big guys to do. If Izzo gets to go all Psycho Fran and the physicality gets lopsided it will definitely favor the Spartans. History would say there is no home court advantage for NU against the likes of MSU, Purdue, and Indiana because we will never be a blue blood BB program (even if/when we make the NCAAs this year and win the national championship).
Honestly, I don’t even think beating Kansas gets that husker team in the dance. A single win wouldn’t move you from a 5 seed in the nit to the ncaa tournament. They only had a single quad 1 win that year, against Michigan. Still crazy to think a 22 win big ten team didn’t make the tourney, let alone get a favorable seed in the tourney.
I think the committee even mentioned it was due to no Quad 1 wins. Going off memory here, but that might've been the first year of it. I may be wrong, but I think we were all complaining that we had Q1 wins, but when we beat the teams, they fell down to Q2.
Idk --- Could easily be wrong, but we're in if we beat KU that year. We would've been 23-10. KU was a (1) seed in the tournament that year.
Um yeah. Fred ain’t gettin the calls Izzo gets
You can feel good about NU’s chances tonight. I took Sparty @ -3 1/2. I have missed more on NU hoops than than any other event. I just can’t get them right.
First time a B1G team finishes 13-5 and 4th place finish gets left out of the NCAA tournament that I had ever seen...
I still think that was horsecrap. We deserved to be in the tournament with that kind of record. They put a little bit too much on quad 1 bs.
The B1G was terrible that year, I think it was the 5th or 6th best conference that year. Only 4 of our 22 wins came against Top 100 teams, with Michigan at home being the only good team we beat.
St Mary's (28-5) and USC (23-11) deserved to be in that year more than us, and both of them got snubbed too.
I was hoping they held Keita out Saturday so he’d be able to go tonight, but the fact he was in a boot - probably not. I hope a couple guys go off from 3.
I’m expecting a higher scoring game than we’re use to tonight..
Interesting that Nebraska beat Wisconsin in Madison. I think the last time Indiana won in Madison was 1998. Crazy stat.2017-2018 . 6 in a row

Huskers won in Madison last year, too. Took a great big crap right in the middle of Brad Davison's 9th-Year Senior Day punchbowl.
He could use a COVID year next year if he wanted but he can get paaaaaaidddd back home
Probably not.
Fred is going to have to find at least 4 studs in the transfer portal, because we will be losing our 4 best players, and we only signed one high school recruit who is a 3-star. Next year could be Hoiberg's worst team yet.
Where’s Lawrence going?
If he’s not better than Wilcher, we must be watching different sports.
