As a lifelong Husker; I don't think Nebraska has a prayer for the field of 65.  The NIT would be good experience for them anyway especially with the 4 redshirt players for next year.

Yeah these last two wins have been really really sweet for Doc and the skers.  It really makes you think Doc is the right guy for the job and we have a very bright future ahead of us once Doc gets a team full of "his" players. 

You're right if we could have just had 2 other wins that we should have between the Baylor, Colorado, Iowa St., and Mizzou games we could be looked at as a bubble ncaa tourney team.  I like our chances in the rest of our games except of course against Texas but just think if we could somehow pull 4 for 4 and make a semi-final appearance in the big 12 tourney it's possible!

GO BIG RED!

I like our chances to win a few games but watching Maric pass the ball when he has a good shot is a little worrying. The Cookie Miller injury was a huge blow to us. Hopefully Harley and Anderson can pick up the slack as Miller looked in big pain and may be out a while. The only chance we got is going deep in the tourney and/or beat Texas. I believe!

I believe too! We can and will at least win 3 of 4 to end the reg. season! And you never know, a couple of wins in the conference tourney, then the selection committee has to at least look at us for the field of 65, with 20 or 21 wins and being a big 12 school, we would at least have to be in consideration.....and thats a big step moving forward either way you look at it.

I would just be happy with 20 wins the last time the skers pulled that off was in 1999. They came close in 05-06 with 19.

I think that Maric passing was part of the game plan to slow the tempo.

Miller's injury is just a bad sprain (thankfully).  He is likely out Wednesday vs OU, but is day to day.  I think for us to have a prayer at UT, he has to play and Augustine has to try to do everything under the sun.  When Augustine does that, Texas is very beatable.

Put the absolute Beatdown on OU tonight!!!  This team is really starting to grasp Doc's style (held OU to 12 first half points!) and don't look now but we've beaten 3 in a row teams projected to make the big dance!

GO BIG RED!

The Huskers are rolling but i literally lose sleep  thinking about losses to sorry Colorado, ISU, and Mizzou teams.  And a close loss to Baylor at home it's ridiculous how close this team is to 10-3 in Big 12 play no joke.  Everyone is waiting for all the talent coming in next season but the guys this year have started to put it together.  It's very possible to win out right now we've heated up at the right time.  The NCAA tourney is closer than Husker fans think. With Maric in the middle the Huskers have finally figured out how to use his presence to divert attention and allow quick guards to  cut to the basket.  Players like Anderson and Velander have realized not to think about their size disadvantage defensively but the mismatch they create offensively with the ability as wings to get open jumpshots and stretch the oppositions defense.  I really want this team to make it.  I believe they can gut it up and win their way in to the dance.  This team has character.  On paper it's hard to believe but they're believing right now.

The CBI tournament is new this year.  It will have 16 teams and is run by the same people who put together the Coaches vs. Cancer tournament early in the season.

Not necessarily.  Here's a link from the Lincoln Journal-Star and another that seems to be their "official" website.
