Nebraska
pace favors nebby
Yes, and it's good that they're hitting their 3s. Also need to keep feeding Mast and Buechtenjel (sp??)

McCollum is going to try to muck this up and Iowa will stay within arms reach for a while. Huskers just have to keep doing what they're good at.
 
Still don't like Nebraska, but Fred didn't leave ISU on bad terms, and I think most fans are over it now that Otz is crushing it.

Plus, cheering for Fred vs. the Hawks isn't that big of an ask.
Hoiberg's coached the Huskers longer than he coached here. When does he become a Husker who grew up in Ames? Not that there's anything wrong with cheering him. But people gotta recognize, ya know?

Personally, I'll always cheer for the meteor when Iowa plays Nebraska

I was confused that the color commentator in Neb-Iowa was Steve Lappas (it's Stan Van Gundy) and was like, Steve Lappas was a head coach in the NBA??
 
Nebby is clearly the better team if Iowa's mid-major-level role-players stop hitting every three.
 
I am actually impressed with TX in this tournament.
Almost wonder if Miller would have stayed at X one more year if he'd have a shot at the Carolina job.
