The Deuce: Yeah, my big takeaway from yesterday is there is no way we are winning the Big Ten.

I mean, I kinda felt that already, but yesterday made that pretty clear.

It's fine...we can still have a great season and who knows what we are by March, but I think enough teams are gonna get us while we're figuring ourselves out that the Big Ten title is gonna be lost by that point.

Game is also gonna be on that NBC Sports channel on YouTube.

Nebraska is undefeated and currently #14 in the Net. Their best win (currently) is against #56 New Mexico. This was part of a 3 win neutral site tournament where they also beat Kansas State (#76) and Oklahoma (#70).

All their other wins have been at home, including a drubbing of Wisconsin this week by 30 points. The return of Rienk Mast from injury last year has been good for them. They have one of the Sandfort brothers from Iowa last year. They score a lot, and do the same things defensively where they allow you to shoot threes all day but gum up the paint.

Saturday is their first Q1 game. Saturday is their first road game (granted, the students will probably be gone).

Please kill them, Illini. Rebound and make threes.
