To say we jumped back in quickly is an understatement.

I'm super close to certain a 9-11 B1G record will get us dancing. NET is what I haven't been able to crack as comfortably as last season but I believe we can get there. Here's my breakdown in groups of 3...
4-7 current B1G record with remaining games
Group 1 = 2-1 is needed
at Washington (Q2)
v Ohio State (Q1)
v Maryland (Q1)
Group 2 = 1-2 is needed
at Northwestern (Q1)
at Penn State (Q1)
v Michigan (Q1)
Group 3 = 2-1 is needed
v Minnesota (Q3) absolutely can't lose this game
at Ohio State (Q1)
v Ioa (Q2)
Any result that's different is added or subtracted in the next group. EX: 1-2 next 3, then we need to sneak an additional win out of the next 6 games. 3-0 next 3 and we can afford to lose an additional game in the next 6 as long as it's not (as it stands today), Minnesota.
The above results would give us, at bare minimum, a 6-12 record against Q1 with at least 2 of them on the road. Remember, we didn't have any Q1 road wins last season (technically we did against Kansas State, but they weren't Q1 until the last 2 games of the regular season & nobody was highlighting it).
10-10 or better B1G record and we're a lock.

Couple things to hopefully soften two games.
Brooks Barnhizer is out for the season for NW with a foot injury.
Owen Freeman is out for the season for Ioa with a finger injury.
And towards the end of the year teams that are out of the tournament may not put up the same fight as earlier in the season. (Minnesota and maybe Penn State and Northwestern)

I think if you can beat Ohio St on Sunday you’re really starting to “taste” it

With back to back wins vs. Ohio State and Maryland, I think Nebraska will officially be sitting along the 8/9 line.

Do you Skers actually care about basketball?
I haven’t watch a CBB game in at least a decade.
