I watched 1 Nebraska game this season. They're legit. Good chance they could finally win their first NCAA Tournament game this March.

First? Like ever?
I know Nebraska isn’t a powerhouse but it’s funny to hear a program like that being winless in the tourney if I’m reading that right.

I remember when we played Iowa State in the 2014 tournament. Hoeiberg runs a ton of great offensive sets.
They stomped the hell out Creighton this year.

The Cornhuskers have the lone distinction of being the only power conference school to never win a tournament game. Eight appearances, eight losses.

I'm hoping they go undefeated so Hurley can beat them in the Final.Here’s to hoping Michigan only wins by 39 so RuffRuff comes down to earth.. /s.
Sarcasm folks!
Can’t do smiley face so use your imagination.
I'm going to be really curious as to whether anyone can give those guys a game.

Today's CBS Sports Power Rankings. They moved UConn up to #3 from #5. Moved Duke down from #3 to #11. This isn't like the AP Poll where there isn't a lot of movement from week to week. They rank them where they see them. Like a lot of us, they think the Huskies have another gear they just haven't gotten to yet.
3. UConn
Don't look now, but UConn is finding a groove and yet it still feels like it hasn't quite hit its stride. The Huskies have won nine-straight and are 13-1 after double-digit wins over Butler , DePaul and Xavier to open league play just before the New Year. Last week: 5

College basketball power rankings: Michigan, Arizona tight at the top
There is plenty of movement and depth in this week's Power Rankings after the dominant Wolverines and Wildcats.

Top 5 look good, some of the rest iffy. Houston/BYU too low. I'd slip UConn in front of AZ as 2a, AZ 2b - ISU right behind. Then Purdue.Today's CBS Sports Power Rankings.

How is So Cal 12-1? They suck and are ranked #24. Michigan isnt impressive as they’ve won 2 games in OT and won a 3rd game by 4.Here’s to hoping Michigan only wins by 39 so RuffRuff comes down to earth.

I will be curious with this game. We beat Mict State easily without Reed and Mullins and teams like Nebraska are always ranked higher than they deserve to be.

I watch teams like USC and their offensive sets are miles behind UConn's. Just hard to watch.

The best team they've played is Seton Hall and the refs decided that one. They lost their 20 ppg, 6 assists guy Rodney Rice for the season and they are missing another player. They probably would've been good with Rodney Rice and Arenas who has yet to play this season.

Crazy with UM is that none of these guys averaging over 30 minutes a game either - May really keeps his guys fresh and works the rotation, although benefitted by going up by so much early. I just saw 6 guys averaging between 19-27 minutes/game.
They're going to toy with most of the B10.
