Huskers to Make School-Record 30 National TV Appearances

"Lincoln -- Coming off an NCAA Sweet 16 appearance, the Nebraska men’s basketball team will make minimum of 30 national televisions appearances, as the Big Ten Conference and its broadcast partners announced its 2026-27 regular-schedule Tuesday afternoon.

As of Tuesday afternoon, 30 of the Huskers’ 32 regular-season games are slated to be televised nationally, as Nebraska will make appearances on six networks (CBS, FOX, FS1, TNT, BTN and NBC Sports Network) with one game awaiting television designation."

WOW

With the timing, there has to be more to the story. HE is 68. Hope it is not a health issue

[almighty_tuna]

Yeah, has to absolutely be something more to that.

[OmahaRedWing]

Yeah I hope he is OK. I think I remember hearing in the spring when they said he was coming back they it was for several more years.

Nebraska plays at Oregon this season on January 10th I believe.

Huskers exhibition is available to watch for free tonight:

[nebugeater]

I have two season tickets for tonight, and I will be at High School Football. If anyone can use them, PM me and I will transfer them at no cost.

[OmahaRedWing]

Robin Washut reported F Sam Orme is out this game and at least the next with a hamstring issue he's been dealing with for a couple of weeks. Possibly back for K State exhibition.

[Greg S]

Huskers at BYU are on ESPN+ right now.

Looks like Kent Palvelka has announced this is his last season for Husker PbP before he retires

Happy for the guy, so glad he was still calling games for the year we had last season.

[OmahaRedWing]

Will be interesting to see who replaces Kent...

[Linkin5]

Will be interesting to see who replaces Kent...

I’m guessing Kyle Crooks.

[OmahaRedWing]

I’m guessing Kyle Crooks.

I would assume that's the most likely scenario as he did some basketball at Florida. If he does opt to add basketball to his duties then I assume they will have to replace him on Sports Nightly.

[Greg S]

Good start for the Huskers last night, 106-64 over Le Moyne.

[OmahaRedWing]

Got to admit I was a little underwhelmed with Trevan Leonhardt's play in the preseason. He looked last night as I was hoping he would when we signed him. I need to relax more during exhibition season....

[Greg S]

I was happy to see Connor Essegian have success last night. He's battled back from last year's injury. He really struggled during the exhibitions and at one point last night I wasn't sure if he was even going to get in the game.

[OmahaRedWing]

More early things to watch. So far it looks like Wilkinson was a steal. Love his play inside. I know Kapke was the premier big man signing, but Wilkinson may end up playing equally as him if things continue.

[Greg S]

Huskers with a good non conference win over Providence on Saturday night. 67-58

[OmahaRedWing]

That was very much like a road game. I saw in the OWH that Providence paid for 15 buses of students to go to the game. Their campus is about an hour away. Similar to what teams encounter when they play Nebraska on a "neutral" site in Sioux Falls.

I really enjoyed watching this game.

[Greg S]

Coming off the football loss (or losses), I really enjoyed this Nebraska basketball win. Even though he didn't do much, nice to Sam Orme healthy enough to play.

[OmahaRedWing]

Just saw the post game comments from Providence's coach. He was very complimentary to the Nebraska defense. Said they have one of the top defenses in the country.

[Greg S]

Husker men, like the women, enter the AP poll at #25.

[OmahaRedWing]

#24 in the coaches poll.

[Greg S]

Huskers up 62-31 against Lindenwood. Huskers on fire from 3 point line. Lots of players getting playing time.

Damon Wilkinson continues to impress off the bench in the middle.

[OmahaRedWing]

Pryce Sandfort’s 22 points led three Huskers in double figures, as the Nebraska men’s basketball team took control early in a 94-60 win over Lindenwood Wednesday evening

The Huskers (3-0) blitzed the Lions in the first half, shooting 66 percent in the half en route to a 61-point first half, the Huskers’ highest scoring first half in more than 30 seasons. Nebraska led by as many as 38, at 56-18 with just under four minutes remaining in the half and took a 61-32 lead into the locker room.
