NCAA NET ranking has Nebraska at #6 today. We'll see if the polls can figure that out. https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/basketball-men/d1/ncaa-mens-basketball-net-rankings
When did Pomeroy become complete trash??? Nebraska ranked as #13. Their metrics on offense and defense vs other groups metrics using the same data have literally no correlation. Its like there is a thumb on the scale ...

Ken Pom still blasting us.
I've hated all these metric sites since they kept our 22 win team out in 2018 or whatever year it was
Thankfully doesn't matter this year.
In before the guy who's disappointed we don't play everyone at full strengh.
That team had a negative assist to turnover ratio, couldn't win a road game, and only beat one good team all season.
Counterpoint: fuck Ken Pom.

22 wins as b1g team should be automatic
Scarlet Shootaround Podcast had on a bracketology guy on who broke down kenpom and its flaws pretty well
He gets into way more detail, but basically said theres enough pre-season bias baked in that with us starting outside the top 50 its extra hard to climb
So preseason feelings instead of facts - must of been created by a bunch of lefties
I already predicted a win. They are big though. We haven't really played a team with legit bigs other than Mich St. Have we?
Illinois is the tallest team in the Big Ten.
The kryptonite for Nebraska will be a team with elite shooting guards. Teams that need their offense to run through the post are toast vs Nebraska.

Forgot Illinois had a couple 7 footers. The one didn't play much against us.
The team we'll have the most trouble against is someone that guards the 3, shoots the 3 and doesn't make mistakes. Pretty much every college basketball team's goal. We've just been doing it better than the other teams.
Michigan's bigs will create problems for us though. Steinbach for Washington is pretty good. Fortunately the other one kinda sucks. Will mean more minutes for Mast though.
It was also the first team with that many wins in conference to be left out, or something similar.
