[TampaBaySkers]

Nebraska #5 in NET. Mich drops to #3 as the metrics show Mich would have lost without ref bias

 

[That SOB Van Owen]

So no change for us in NET. Seems reasonable.

Huge game this weekend vs Illinois.

A number of undefeated teams quickly turned one loss into two. Need to stay focused

We will have a full hand of exciting whites instead of missing two. Hoping PBA is a complete madhouse on Sunday with @HuskerGarrett in attendance

I assume Garrett will kill the ceremonial bluejay pregame given that he's a local celebrity

Yep, biting its head off at center court prior to tip then feeding it to his friend Matt Rhule

Added context: Garrett will chew the bird up and feed it to Matt as a mother bluejay would to her hatchlings still in the nest. Want to make sure everyone here has the visual.

As we get another week or two into it...I'd love if you have some thoughts on seeding from week to week, but if that's a bigger ask no worries.

Here's where I have things right now.

• 29-2 all but guarantees us a 1 seed, regardless of the B1G tournament
• 28-3, with a quick exit in B1G tournament (lose quarters) puts us in as a 2 seed
• 27-4/26-5 will put us, most likely, in as a 3 seed unless we win the B1G tournament then a 2 seed is back on the table

Feel as though at the end of next week I'll have a better feel for the above. We have 4 Q1"A" games left; Illinois, Purdue & Ioa x2. These 4 games will have a tremendous impact on our seeding.

Reminder to everyone; this year, all B1G teams qualify for the B1G tournament. The top 4 are automatically in the quarterfinals like years past.

But what if we suddenly lose out and go 20-11?

8 seed? We’re locked either way.

I dont actually think it would ever happen (although would be the most Nebrasketball thing ever), but I'm not sure 20 wins and ending on an 11 game losing streak does get us in. 22 i think is the bottom to guarantee it if they were to hit a rough patch.

That being said, 30-1 incoming anyway.

You’re going to get a 1-3 seed.

You’re going to play a mid-major in the first round. You’re going to hammer them.

You’re going to play a middle of the road P4 team next. You’ll beat them.

Then you’re off to the second weekend.
