Nebrasketball: Quad breakdown + odds to dance ** Updated 1/19/26 **

[TampaBaySkers]

Interesting stat I stole from elsewhere: Illinois, Michigan St and Wisconsin are a combined 17-4 in conference games, with 3/4 losses being to Nebraska

No shame in losing to the big dog

 

[Scott Hall]

The 4th loss is Wisconsin losing to Purdue

 

[SlumpBuster]

I honestly think the worst game we’ve played this year was Michigan State.

Aside from some of the early games against mid majors I agree with this 1000%

Purdue losing to Wisconsin but yep

Purdue losing to Wisconsin but yep

Wisconsin, Illinois, and Michigan St are 17-4 in the B1G with all 3 losing to Nebraska and the 4th loss is Purdue beating Wisconsin

“Nebraska is very good and the peripheral metrics support that assertion.”

Every single metric you look at suggests this team is a top 5 team in the country if not higher than that. Thats not me being bias. It’s simply empirical.

Anyone track the shot charts game by game?

We shoot lay ups or we shoot 3s. Those 12-18 foot jump shots don’t happen in this offense.

And we have one of the easiest schedules left of 3 of those 4 teams ahead of us

 

[whoboppin]

Time to start thinking about Big Ten regular season champs ? For reference

2025 - MSU 17-3
2024 - Purdue 17-3
2023 - Purdue 15-5
2022 - Illinois 15-5


1-2 -Michigan, Illinois, Purdue
3-2 - Cockeye x2, Minnesota, USC, UCLA
5-0 - NW, Maryland, PSU, Rutgers, Washington

Puts Nebraska at 16-4

Remaining schedule yes but, 3 of our next 6 are against top 12 teams. Thankfully, 2 of them at the Vault.

When rankings come out tomorrow DONU will likely now have the highest ranking ever by a men’s basketball team in the state. Pickle Smoochers previously had it at 7 on multiple occasions

That’s Fredball for ya. I remember when he first got here and was talking about his offense. He truly doesn’t believe in mid range jumpers. Take a couple steps back and get an extra point or get to the basket.

Theres probably a lot of stats out there for what he follows.

Pitino despises mid range jumpers as well. Says it's the worst shot in basketball

My son played basketball at Nebraska Wesleyan and they ran a Princeton style offense and weren’t supposed to take mid range either. Either a 3 or at the hoop.
