2024-25 NCAA Tournament Bracketology/Bubble Watch

** Post Pedophile State update **

** Pedo State likely to move to Q1 after tonight then back to Q2 eventually **

4-7 5-7 6-7 6-8 7-8 7-9 current B1G record with remaining games

Group 1 = 2-1 is needed (2-1 accomplished)
at Washington (Q2)
W
v Ohio State (Q1) W
v Maryland (Q1) L

Group 2 = 1-2 is needed (1-1 w/ 1 TBD, accomplished)
at Northwestern (Q1) W

at Penn State (Q2) L
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)

The way I see it you’ve got 4 games to win 2. Get it fuckin done
 
Pedo State did move to a Q1 loss.

Do we know if Berke will be back Monday? Will need him, bigly, against that frontcourt of UM...

All signs pointing to his return against Michigan. I asked earlier & it sounds like he could've played Wednesday but Fred held him out on purpose to allow more rest. (IMO likely due to beating NW guaranteed us a 1-1 road trip).

I don't know the above to be facts, just sharing what a couple people have said.
 
And a bad loss for Ohio State whos in about the same spot as us
We will be jockeying with them for that 8th place spot in the conference. I think Top 8 gets a first-round bye.

I'm guessing our home win against Ohio State will drop to a Q2 now, but that road game we have with them will definitely stay Q1.

Beat Michigan and Minny and leave no doubt.
 
NW up big @ Ohio State. If they hold on to this big lead, this will probably solidify their status as a Q1 win for us.
Yuuck. If you thought we shit our pants, it could be worse.

Oh it was brutal to watch. If people thought Nebraska didn’t care yesterday, you should have seen Ohio State on offense. It was awful

top 9 get a first round bye in B1G tournament. 9 play 8 on the second day.
 


Memphis would be last year’s TAMU game 2.0 - incredible athletes strong bigs that would eat us alive on the boards. Do not want this type of matchup but looking at the other possibilities on the 7/8 lines… we are in for a tough game regardless

Can’t play Illinois, Pickle Smoochers or St Marys in the first round since we played them in regular season

UConn…. Don’t even need to explain why that would not go well

Memphis/Louisville - too athletic although I’d rather play Louisville of these two IMO

The ones I’m keeping an eye on… would love to play Kansas. I think we match up decently and they have been straight ass away from Allen Fieldhouse. They’re currently on the 6 line but we could slip to 11 or they could fall to 7 with the remaining 4 weeks of hoops left. Talk about a banger first round matchup.

Agree on your Memphis take. Saw a lot of our fans on twitter saying that would be a dream matchup... Just shows how little of our fan base actually knows ball. Memphis is the 3rd best 3 point shooting team in the nation lol.

It’s literally a nightmare matchup for Nebraska. Long athletic bigs that rim run combined with sniper shooters from the outside. Can’t think of anything worse
