The game is on Cox channel 13, Yurview.

Large youth disturbance, 11th and Farnam:

I noticed there has been some chatter online about Hoiberg being in contention for coach of year in the Big 10.

And with the results yesterday, we will play either Michigan, Penn State or Indiana.

In Main Street Plaza just south of 72nd & Q on the east side of 72nd.

5413 S 72nd St, Omaha, NE 68127

It's in the same strip mall as Off the Bench (hockey and lacrosse store) and there's a Scooters in the parking lot.

Does anyone know of a ball field that has gotten rid of most of their surface lots, and are using parking garages? I don't go to many MLB games, but do Padres, Rockies or the Cardinals count? The Cardinals have used garages as the primary parking method since the ‘60s or so. There is one surface lo...

Nebraska officially the 3 seed:

And we got another Big 10 road win.

UNO-UNO-UNO-UNO! Sweep! Wow! This gonna get us into the tourney? I would hope. They were knocking on the door before this weekend, I would hope they can move up a spot or two and get in. I think if selections were today we’d be in. We need to hope there are no big underdogs that win their conferenc...

Keisei with 23 points and 5 boards at the half.

Husker’s up 50-43 over Michigan at the half.

Unfortunately the Husker women’s team faces off against Iowa in the championship game at the same time:

Should Nebraska basketball retire Keisei Tominaga's jersey? Huskers take on Michigan https://youtu.be/us4T-SJI8UI?si=k20MW-CZi5RSzS5_ This has been a hot topic this week. They talked about it on 1620. I think it would be better to talk about it after the season. Still some important games ahead.

Tonight will be the 5th straight sellout. Could be one of the largest crowds ever at Baxter. UNO started selling standing room only tickets for certain lower bowl sections at $22 at 4 PM today.

Oak View seemed to be doing fine up until 2018 when Sears and Younkers closed. The lockdown in 2020 didn't help. Was it though? I'm not saying there weren't any empty spaces, but there weren't as many as there are now. Malls don't become ghost towns overnight. Crossroads certainly didn't. The Younk...

Here is the first good summary I have seen by someone other than a general message board poster about where the Huskers can land in the B1G tournament. It can be anywhere from 3 - 6. I think this article lays out the various scenarios rather well. ( Also, it confirms the tie-breakers that I posted ...

Pretty cool on PBA and NU fans:

How many people actually use the garage? We always park at Budget down on Locust. I will if it’s short-term and there’s bad weather in the forecast. I have parked on the top of the garage. It used to be cheaper. Would still do it on shorter trip, or if very very early flight or late one getting bac...

Parking today:

Greg S

With the city owning/operating the parking garages I assume but hope it doesn't mean they will charge to park? One of the draws of Ak Sar Ben Village is the ease of parking and how well they disguise it. I assume that since this project changed again that will mean it's timeline has been pushed back...

It's halftime. Nebraska's leading 37-25. Rutgers closed the gap on a run near the end. Glad NU got it back to 12. NU needs to slow down on fouls. Could be an issue if we pick up a couple quick ones at the start of the 2nd half. IMO it wasn't the fouls that were the big concern it was the runovers. ...

First and foremost I think this is great. That being said, and I hate to be that guy, but anyone else surprised this will be $175 million and only add a net 40k sq feet? I know inflation and construction costs have increased, but the whole thing arena/convention center was built for $291 million. Ag...

Yep and the best home record in basketball. With the chance to get 1 more road win. Minor clarification... Most home wins in basketball. There's a dozen plus undefeated at home teams with a better win %. Might depend largely on how one defines "best record", ofc. https://www.ncaa.com/rank...

I think the beginning of the downturn of Oak View was when Champps Americana went belly-up due to a corporate reorganization. It was always packed on Friday and Saturday nights, and people frequently went shopping if they had a 45 minute wait. Village Point didn't help matters either. That place ha...

Yeah, never really could shake them. I never fully relaxed watching in the second half.

Looks like the door is open for the Iowa transfer ( Ahron Ulis) to be able to play next season. The remaining charges against the Iowa And Iowa St players have been dropped based on how the searches were handled. https://cdcgaming.com/prosecutor-in-iowa-state-gambling-case-files-motion-to-dismiss-c...

Speaking of 4, Nebraska's final home game, Sunday against Rutger is sold out. 4th home game sellout in a row.
