Nebraska Basketball 2023-2024

[Greg S]

Cool to see former Husker QB (and Bengals current HC) Zac Taylor and his son supporting NU at the game last night:

Comedian/Actor Chris Tucker was there. Saw a clip of him on the floor with an Indiana flag.

[Greg S]

Make that 3 in a row! Sunday is officially a sellout and Rutgers game looking like one too:

With this win, Nebraska's now 19-8. They could very well make the NCAA Tournament next month.

Unless they have a game where they are completely embarrassed, I think two wins in the last four get them into the tourney.

With Nebraska basketball we obviously can’t take anything for granted. This was a great first step in the final 5.

You got that right. Of course, we have to get through the Big Ten Tournament first. I'm not expecting Nebraska to win it, but I think they can at least make an impression.

Honestly I am not looking that far ahead. There next 4 games are too important.

Same here

IF somehow we could win out or a small possibility, even at 3-1, we could end up with the double buy in the conf Tourny. IF we somehow pulled that off, I don't care if we go 0-1 in conf. Not playing on Wed or Thur would be a big enough win. Don't take it wrong either I want to see a win (s) but the reg season finish is more important to me right now than the conf tourny.

NU up 28-20 over Minnesota at the half. We know big leads aren’t safe against the Gophers.

[mrsticka]

They did it! Nebraska won 73-55. They got their 20th win of the season.

When we lost to Minnesota earlier in the year I thought Minnesota was going to finish dead last in the conference. I was wrong and wasn’t sleeping on the game today.

I just checked the Big Ten rankings. And surprisingly, Michigan is dead last. Their overall record this year is 8-20. They have no chance of making the Big Dance next month.

After the Sunday win over Minn they have moved up in NET and KenPom



NET ranking 41

Kenpom 34

Yeah I think Juwan Howard is dead man walking right now. A complete mess in Ann Arbor. It's funny just a few years ago e seemingly had things set for a great run.

Just keep winning. Loved the Husker Power chants with a couple minutes to go in yesterday's game. So loud coming through the TV.

[OmahaRedWing]

I heard on 1620 that Nebraska has now one for league games in a row by more than 15 points. First time since 1911,

[nebugeater]

Here is another stat that I like. In the last four games, all Husker wins. Here is what they have held the opponent to for first-half scoring


Minnesota 20
Indiana 31
Penn State 22
Michigan 25

Nebraska made it into the 'Others Receiving Votes' group this week.

They hustle so much. Has helped when the shots are falling like the first half yesterday.

Very cool, had not seen that yet.

Found this intereseting.

[OmahaRedWing]

Looking back over the last few games, was this year the first time Nebraska has won at Assembly Hall since joining the Big 10?

[nebugeater]

Found this intereseting.

While interesting, THere is a reason they play the complete season. That being said i would rather be here for a partial season ranking near the end of the season vs only the beginning

[nebugeater]

Looking back over the last few games, was this year the first time Nebraska has won at Assembly Hall since joining the Big 10?

Per page 107 of the 2022-23 Media guide, here are some stats.

Indiana is 5- 3 against the Huskers in Assembly Hall

Overall Huskers 7-18
At In Lincoln Huskers 4-8
at Pinnacle Husker 2-5
In Bloomington Huskers 3-8
In Assembly Huskers 3-5
B1G tourny Husker 0-1
Hoosier Classic Huskers 0-1

Looks like the Huskers won vs Indiana on the road in 2019, 2016, 2014

Note this is last year's media guide, which is online.

With Wisconsin losing last night at Indiana, Nebraska is now tied with Wisconsin for 4th in the Big 10.

Are you sure on that? Nebraska won at home but also lost to Wisconsin in Madison in January.

As sure as anything on the internet. ;) I have seen it stated in multiple places that we have the tiebreaker over WIS, but I have not dug into it.

I had to do a little checking. Nebr does own the tiebreaker as it stands now. IF the head-to-head is split, then it goes to the overall record.

Have you got a prediction?

[Louie]

Ohio State has been Jekyll and Hyde for the second half of the season. Really depends which version they are tonight.

[OmahaRedWing]

Ohio State has been Jekyll and Hyde for the second half of the season. Really depends which version they are tonight.

They have been better since they fired their coach. 2 and 1 I believe including a win over Purdue.

[OmahaRedWing]

I really appreciate the 5:30 road games....

[Greg S]

Huskers trail 39-37 at the half. Battle returns for OSU and has a great first half. Need to pick him up quicker on D.

[mrsticka]

Game's over. Nebraska lost 78-69. Stagburn it!
