Think we need some perspective on the season. This roster was always flawed but was masked by incredible effort, good coaching and a lot of veterans. I think going into the year, most of us thought bubble at best. I think that’s where we’ll end up.

Bigger picture is keeping the recruiting class together and maintaining that momentum.

This. Weve overachieved massively thus far this season and were seeing a slight regression to the mean. All things considered I think this season has been a wild success thus far outside of tonight.

Team severely lacks talent. The fact pike even has them in this position to get a bid is a miracle

Yes, this is a over achieving team which to their credit played very good defense for most of the season.The exceptions were the two games against Iowa and tonights game against Nebraska.The margin for error has been slim because of the mediocre offense.There has been no go to scorer this season which makes it difficult to catch up or increase leads to a safe margin.

Not making the tournament at the start of the year was acceptable but not making it after the way we started would be very disappointing

What?! Everyone thought this was a team with a strong veteran returning nucleus that added a key shooter and solid freshman, a team that SHOULD make the tourney.

You serious? We were considered a bubble team by every publication out there. We lost our 2 best players and replaced them with a subpar freshman class.

Count me as in the bucket as not being everyone. I thought team severely lacked talent and said 8-3 OOC and 8-12 in B1G play for 16-15 overall. I think ill be wrong tho and we get more b1g wins

I thought when added Cam we would be fine because almost everyone returned. Besides, after all we played great defense right?

We lost to Nebraska at home by 10 and we made them look like a tournament team and they are not good
