I am not optimistic UNL will win their first NCAA tourney game this year.. assuming they make it.   Just such an inconsistent team on the road.

If 16s can beat a 1 (twice now) surely Nebraska could win one for once.

Nebraska sits at 0-7 all time.  LIU, UL-Monroe also at 0-7.   Only Boise State (0-9) and EKU (0-8) have been larger failures in the Tournament.

Nebraska has lost as a 9 (1986 1st ever bid) , 3, 8, 10, 6, 11 and 11.  (They did win the NIT in '96).   My recall is the only one that they really should have pulled out was the 3 v 14 loss to Xavier in '91.   dreadful FT shooting (checks: 14-27, compared to Xavier's 29-40) did them in losing 89-84.    The game against Penn another time was winnable.

There being more MSU than UM fans in the building makes sense, given geography.  Getting outnumbered by Purdue fans, is quite an accomplishment, even as apathetic as Michigan basketball fans are

Did they just say Purdue has lost zero games to injury?  That's insane

Michigan is a football school. Always will be. I think there are also a lot of people who just quit watching basketball in general. It’s nowhere near as popular as it used to be in terms of tv ratings. Football meanwhile still holding strong and growing in viewership.

Ethan Morton would get 25 mpg at MSU as a reward for being a former 4 star who didn't pan out, but also didn't transfer
