-The Madness is back after a year off…how great has the start of this tournament been?

-What team would be more devastating if they make a run—Creighton or Iowa?

-Arizona football coach Jedd Fisch is opening up spring football practice for the media to view at all times…will we ever see something like that again at Nebraska?

Jake has a STRONG proclamation for if Creighton were to lose today…

-Creighton is trying to make their first Sweet 16 since the field expanded to 64 teams. They had not won a first round game in the last 7 years before they LUCKILY survived 12-seed UC-Santa Barbara on Saturday, aided by a missed layup with 2 seconds left by the Gauchos, to win by one point

-Creighton now faces 13-seed Ohio, who upset 4-seed Virginia. If the Jays can’t get past a 13-seed and a 12-seed en route to their first Sweet 16, then they deserve endless crap to the end of time, and they know that, too

March Madness certainly has delivered so far…what a beautiful, wild, crazy tournament it is

March 22, 2021 by Jake Sorensen Leave a Comment

-Your bracket is likely busted. And it’s for the better for the entertainment of the tourney that it is! The B1G went 6-3 in the first round, but had bad losses by 2-seed Ohio State to Oral Roberts, and 4-seed Purdue to North Texas.

-Abilene Christian stunned Texas, Ohio beat Virginia…and there’s more than that! The Round of 32 started yesterday and goes on today…how are Jake and Sip feeling about their shaved head bets for Iowa and Creighton? Also…VCU/Oregon canceled and Oregon moves on…at least it was only one game, though…the tournament has been smooth operating otherwise

Nebrasketball’s game at Purdue was postponed…are fans still intrigued by the season or disinterested in it already?

January 5, 2021 by Jake Sorensen Leave a Comment

-Fred Hoiberg’s squad is on a 21-game losing streak in conference play. They were blown out by Ohio State and played Michigan State close, but are 0-4 in B1G play on the season

-The entire conference is full of good teams, and they could have an incredibly large amount of teams that make the Dance this year. Knowing that and where Nebraska is at in the rebuild, are you still in or checked out for the season?

Ohio State/Michigan is canceled, Purdue/Indiana appears to be on the same track, and the nightmare the B1G hoped to avoid is upon us

December 9, 2020 by Jake Sorensen Leave a Comment

-Well—we can assume they tried to avoid it, but it’s sometimes hard to believe that for how the season was set up and the zero room for error that was allowed in the scheduling

-Things looked good for Ohio State/Michigan on Sunday and Monday, but the game was officially canceled on Tuesday. Where do the Buckeyes go from here? Is there any chance for a non-con game? Nebraska fans will smirk and roll their eyes if Ohio State is allowed to play a non-con game

-Will Nebraska be playing Minnesota or someone else this weekend to aid the conference?
