New Mexico went and beat VCU on the road last night. I think the Lobos found themselves in that Kansas City tournament. They are going to make some noise in the Mountain West.

They're 8-2 right now, don't be shocked if they're sitting at like 16-4 and in the Q1 territory in two months.

 

[Hedley Lamarr]

For reference purposes. Last time we made the dance...

2023-2024
Q1 = 3-8
Q2 = 4-3
Q3 = 7-0
Q4 = 7-0
B1G tournament + dance aren't included

19-1 at home, only loss to sweater vests. 2-8 Q1 & Q2 record on the road in B1G play.

The 2 neutral site wins over KSU & OU will be pivotal for us, likely Q2 wins, which trump our solo Q1 non-conf (KSU) road win in 2023-2024. And the queers from Omaha is icing on the cake if they end up a Q2 win.

Just keep all of this in mind when things get rocky...

By rocky do you mean when we win by less points?

Here's how I see it...

Must-win games:
12/21 - North Dakota
12/30 - New Hampshire
1/13 - Oregon
1/21 - Washington
2/14 - Northwestern
2/21 - Penn St
2/25 - Maryland
3/8 - Cockeye

Coin-flip games:
12/10 - Wisconsin
1/17 - @Northwestern
1/24 - @Minnesota
2/7 - @Rutgers

Games to steal:
12/13 - @Illinois
1/2 - Michigan St
1/5 - @Ohio St
1/10 - @Indiana
2/1 - Illinois
2/10 - Purdue
2/17 - @Cockeye
2/28 - @USC
3/3 - @UCLA

Only game not included is @Michigan. I just don't see that as a winnable game with as tough as they have looked and it being on the road.

We need to win all of our must-wins, spit out coin-flips and steal two games.

Just need to win the must-win games at this point, but I think we need to aim higher…

No longer a question of if we get in. Question is how high is our seed?

Oklahoma beat 9-0 Oklahoma State today.

Might get 2 Q1 wins today.

Only up to 19 in KenPom. NET likes us much more

 

[The Bearded One]

A tad off topic here, but what is the status of Jaravacius (spelling?). I know he was hurt at the beginning of the season. I thought he'd be a good depth piece.

Oogie is expected back around the UND game

I think that's was what you were attempting

Do you remember what his injury was?

Where does he even fit into the rotation?

 

[The Bearded One]

I'm assuming he spells minutes for Mast or Buyt or both. If I remember correctly from his tape, he's a good shooter, ball handler and passer for a tall kid.

 

[redzoner]

Back issues.

He warmed up for this game and they are hoping he plays next game.

 

[Lionsfan93]

That's where I think too. Honestly, when we pull Mast and Sandfort and have Jacobsen and Hoiberg on the court together, he could pair well with that lineup to add another scoring threat.

I have no clue about his health. But I watched clips from him at Central Michigan. He was a unanimous All Conference pick in the MAC. He's a much more athletic version and better defensive version of Andrew Morgan.

If he's healthy, I think Nebraska can seriously have a magical season.

I agree - I was pretty high on him when we landed him. But this team is gelling pretty well, obviously. I'd love for him to make a positive impact and hope he does. Just not sure how this is going to look...
