4 seed hosting Nebraska, didn't we play them in an exhibition before this season started?

Also if we beat them, we will more than likely play Baylor. That is where Mario Kegler transferred to

Honestly I am more concerned about Nebraska than Baylor. Get past the Huskers and I think we win in Waco.

Yeah our first round matchup will be a real challenge. We were a lower seed than I expected so I didn’t expect quite as tough of a matchup right out of the gate.

Thankfully I think we’re a much better team than we were when we scrimmaged them in the preseason, but they have probably improved too.

Not that NIT seeds are worth spending too much time worrying about, but I was a little upset to see LSU get a 3 seed and ULL in the first round when we were better than them in conference play, overall, and in the RPI, but we have to play a 13-5 Big 10 team right out of the gate. Nebraska seems pretty under-seeded as well.

Ado didn’t play that game and Peters wasn’t playing at the level he is now. At the same time, Nick will probably be out.

I think the team has grown a bit since that scrimmage. One more bracket to wait out.

Ok state really got the screw job...their resume fits the description of a team going to the big dance.

I wonder what items Nebraska fans are selling, pawning, and refinancing to afford the trip.**
