I recently became a lifelong Husker fan.I feel I should point out I have a surprising amount of joy that Nebraska somehow clawed their way up to second to last.

The only way they end up on in the NIT is if they lose to IU.I for one would very much enjoy beating Michigan 3x this year to officially launch their send-off to the NIT.
Honestly I hope Indiana beats Michigan. We will cruise past them imo
Some if not many of the forecasters already have them in the dance.The only way they end up on in the NIT is if they lose to IU.
From what I've seen, 1 more win gets UM in.
Has anyone seen any conference champs t-shirts yet? I'd really like to be wearing it in Indy Friday (especially if we are playing UM...)
Absolutely. That must be some sort of BT historical season-ending run. A one-win team goes on the road for the final three games. It wins them all, two against ranked opponents and one of those against a team that can win an outright title by simply winning at home.I feel I should point out I have a surprising amount of joy that Nebraska somehow clawed their way up to second to last.
Well, as the investment prospectuses note: "past performance is no guarantee of future results."So what you're telling me is Michigan is definitely losing to IU on Wednesday.
Also Kofi absolutely owns Indiana's best player. The matchup advantage makes this a no brainer.You take Indiana here in a heartbeat. Besting teams three times in a year is tough. Also the talent level is way higher on that Michigan squad.
I like our chances against either but it won't be a cake walk.
Sure but if a better BTT run helps build momentum or gets us a better seed and path through the NCAA Tournament, then bring me some more hardware!I think I'll fall into the camp of "whatever" for the BTT. These kids experienced that last year.
We beat Miznoz, scUM, and swept Iowa to win the regular season title. That makes this a fantastic year already.
If we get bounced in the BTT and get a little extra chip for the Dance.....so be it. Elite 8 or bust this year.
Make a run. Cherry on top of this nutty season.
1989 Still makes me ill.I'm not so sure I want to see Michigan for a 3rd time.
Securing a 3-seed is a huge deal if our goal is the second weekend and beyond.Sure but if a better BTT run helps build momentum or gets us a better seed and path through the NCAA Tournament, then bring me some more hardware!
I think this could be very important if there are any more rematches with Purdue. Ivey is a problem and if Hawkins can do to Ivey what he did to Murray that would change the game significantly. I think Ivey is probably faster than either Johnny Davis or Murray so that would be a challenge.
We always do. Except when we don’t.We did last year.
Illini Store sent email last night with themHas anyone seen any conference champs t-shirts yet? I'd really like to be wearing it in Indy Friday (especially if we are playing UM...)
He didn't want to leave. That's what's going on.Did I miss it last time when he was in attendance for a game? What's going on here?
There's certainly that subtext. I just didn't know if we had any more explicit information.He didn't want to leave. That's what's going on.
