I'm going to NYC tomorrow for the game / weekend, which is kind of full circle for my Michigan fandom since my first live game I attended was when Michigan beat Rutgers in NYC for the 2004 NIT Championship. I'm not sure what to expect, even if Simpson is back (presumably since there's been no indication otherwise), whereas I don't expect to see Livers even though supposedly he just bruised something as opposed to exacerbating his groin injury, but time will tell on that.
The Nebraska game was actually somewhat encouraging all things considered. They should still be able to get to 16-18 wins, regardless, which should be good enough for at least an NIT bid considering the SOS (between the BigTen and strong non-con games). Time will tell though, of course.
