Morning Trivia!!!

Name the only two schools of the Power 5 conferences that have never won a game in the NCAA Men's basketball tourney.

Well of course Nebraska and Northwestern hasn't played in the tournament so they haven't won a game yet.

So the other I think is Vanderbilt.

Don't complicate it... I think it's Nebraska and northwestern. Since northwestern hasn't played in the tournament, they haven't won a game either.

UNL and NU is correct. I believe Vandy has won some games in the men's tourney. Although it seems like it's been a while.

You threw me for a little curve because you said NEVER won a game IN the NCAA tournament.

You have to play in the tournment to actually have a chance to win a game.But I knew it was both B1G schools.

Northwestern has a good chance of breaking that streak this year.

Yes they do, all depends on seating thou.. When healthy they are a very good team.

I think they are already in the tourney after beating Wisky at Wisky.

Agreed, but I meant winning a game in the tourney. We'll be lonely at the bottom

We've have had our chances especially the 91 team.

Not that I'm the only one capable of math but that was 26 years ago!!! How Strick, Boone, and Badgett didn't get a W in the tourney I'll never know...

One word: Complacency. I had that '91 team in the Elite 8. They were that good. Nebraska beat Kansas twice in a span of six days, once at the end of the season then again in the conference tourney. This was the same KU squad that went all the way to the National Title game before finally getting beat by Duke. Husker lose in the first round of the NCAA's. Big disappointment.

I know how this works...

Nebraska has NEVER won an NCAA tourney game...

and yet Miles is supposed to field a great team!
and our expectation are high for our Nebraska basketball team!

Bonus:
and if he doesn't make it to the tourney we want him fired!
and his offense is horrible!
and his coaching sucks at the end of games!
and his jokes are getting old!


Nebrasketball Facts:
Nebraska has gone to the tournament 7 times (1986, 91, 92, 93, 94, 98, 2014)
2014 was the first time since 1998 when Danny Nee was the coach.

Barry Collier (2000-2006) NEVER made it to the NCAA tourney. (6 years)
Doc Sadler (2006-2012) NEVER made it to the NCAA tourney. (6 years)
Tim Miles (2012-2017) made the tourney one time. (5 years)

Wow, I look like a Miles homer...
