Bracketology

[B.B. Hemingway]

Stewart Mandel says Nebraska has virtually no shot at an at large bid, and Chris Heady (OWH) says we have an 85% chance RIGHT NOW..... Polar opposite opinions on this are all over the place....

For me, I think a win over Michigan locks it up. I could be completely wrong here, but if the eye test is going to matter as much as some are suggesting, I think Nebraska may get in anyways.

One thing I know for sure? Nebraska is more than capable of making a little run if they do find a way in.

One thing to keep in mind: how many bids are going to be stolen by teams not projected to get in winning their conference tournaments? It might be a nailbiter of a week the week after the Big Ten Tournament.

You know how you silence the haters. Win the tournament.

I took Friday off work.  Hope it's worth it.

Mandel has a good track record of picking but for him to say we have no shot at an at large bid is stupid. If we beat Michigan and MSU and lose a close game to lets say Purdue, we are very much so in.

I am 50/50 on if we get in with a win over Michigan. If the committee does the eye test we are in but a lot can still happen.

If Wisconsin had our resume, do you guys think they would be in the tourney?

yes. same thing for Maryland or Indiana.

I think we are the 3rd best team in the Big this year.

Interesting isn't the word to describe having to root for Kansas and Kansas State. I'll probably need to shower after having to side with those two schools.

Well are you willing to do whatever it takes to have your team make the National Tournament?

Not so sure about that.

I have thought 23 is our magic number but now i just dont even know.

I found myself cheering for Duke over Syracuse over the weekend and felt like I was cheering for Russian dopers at the Olympics.

Shelby Mast of USA Today says Nebraska needs to beat Michigan and probably Michigan State to get in.
