I can't wait. Its gonna be cinematic enough, the cinematic recap will just be a replay.

Picture it: the good guys are down 10. The under 4 timeout hits. They're feeling down and out. Then a hush falls over the crowd as a shrouded figure begins to emerge from the tunnel. Suddenly, Frager bursts out onto the court, ankle heavily taped. "Coach, I got this," he says, the confidence oozing from every pore. Hoiberg nods, subs him for Garcia, and its on. Frager goes on a tear, battling shot for shot with the Wolverines. 15 seconds left, 82-81. Sam misses long and Michigan gets the board, taking off on a run, trying to seal it. Out of nowhere, looking like a reincarnation of Lavonte David against Ohio St, Frager rips the ball from Michigan, clean. He sees the clock. No time to waste. He’s got one on one with all 7'3" of Mara. He's unphased. He takes off, throwing it down, nuts-in-face over Mara. As the ball hits the court again, the buzzer blows and Husker nation knows nothing stands in their way to that elusive first tournament win now.

You're absolutely on point. I'm seeing some bizarre stuff on social media like, "we will see if Nebraska is legit this week, or reality about to set in for Nebraska."

There have been only 2 high major teams finish undefeated in the last 25 years. Most high major teams that only lose 3 or 4 games and draw a number 1 seed.

But Nebraska would be a fraud if they lose a road game vs a top 5 team.
chalkboard material if you ask me...post that shit up, "NO ONE BELIEVES YOU!!" but we do!!!

UUUUUSSSSSSSS!!!!!
 
I've watched a few matchup predictions/analysis of the game tonight. All of them use carefully chosen words to say Nebraska is too white to win this game
"Not sure if Nebraska can match Michigan's speed"
"Michigan's athleticism should be a difference maker"
"Michigan's explosive guards will be difficult For Nebraska to guard"
"Michigan's fast break offense will be much harder for Nebraska to stop than usual"

About right?
