And they did it on the ugliest court that was ever made.
Nebraska ends up losing by close to 30. Last year Hoiberg slowed down his usual tempo and it helped the defense get into the top 70 on KenPom. This year, he's continued to slow down the tempo but has a worse defensive rating than Iowa now. The offense in the first 7 games was to get up a lot of 3 point shots--they were top-30 in the country in 3 point shot attempts. That seemed to work pretty well for Nebraska until they shot 2-22 today.
3 big games tonight:
5:30 - Florida Atlantic (7-1) vs Illinois (6-1) Jimmy V Classic on ESPN
6:00 - Wisconsin (6-2) at Michigan State (4-3) Peacock
8:00 - Indiana (6-1) at Michigan (4-4) Peacock

Pretty crazy how Florida Atlantic came out of no where with a final four appearance last year and continuing to look good this season.
Illinois 79 - FAU 71 with 7:00 left. ESPN
Wisconsin 51 - Michigan State 46 with 12:00 left. Peacock.

Come on, man. We gotta save the ginger label for those who truly have no soul like Goode! Domask is more blonde. I’ll give you that he might only have like 75% of a soul, though.
This ****ing guy.. hate him. Please tell me this is his only year of eligibility
ill vs fau was a great game to watch as a fan.
msu is stinking it up. not sure if they have the outside shooting to make a turnaround as the season progresses and it's tourney time.
I continue to loathe the stinkin' badgers

No I paid just a pain and the arse to flip over to you tube TV for other games
Maryland had the game won and fouled a Penn State player at the end 80 feet from the basket. Going to overtime.
I'm still baffled at how bad this Maryland team looks. It looks like every single player they brought back has regressed other than Reese.
Fantastic slate of games today:
Illinois @ Tennessee
Purdue v Alabama in Toronto
Indiana v Auburn in Atlanta
Wisconsin @ Arizona
Rutgers @ Seton Hall
Ohio St @ Penn State

Illinois up 36-34 at half on the road. Probably my #2 team in the Big Ten at this point.
Indiana was up 22-10 5 minutes into this game. Auburn is now up 52-34 at halftime. For those doing the math, that's a 42-12 run.
Nice comeback by the Boilers.
Now up 70-63 with 8:58 to go in game.
They may foul out entire Alabama team, too.

Alabama hit 19 3s and still lost to Purdue.
Every time I watch Indiana I come away less impressed then before. I know they're 2-0 in conference play, but this team is clunky offensively with very little spacing. If a team is shooting hot against them, there really isn't anything they can do as their perimeter defense isn't very good either. I'd be very surprised if we looked up in February and Indiana is still in the top half of the conference.
Another pretty dreadful day for the Big Ten. IU is so poorly coached. Drubbed by Pearl and Auburn. Not surprised by Wisconsin losing but giving up 98? Really? At least Purdue held up their end of the bargain. I’ll give Illinois a pass on the road at a really good Tennessee team.
its gonna be interesting to see how many B1G teams end up making the Big Dance
Good one brewing on BTN. Ohio State had an 18 point lead at one point, but Penn State has been storming back this second half to only down 2 with 7 to go.
Ohio State loses their 10th straight Big Ten game on the road to a Penn St team who had lost 5 in a row.
Notice him saying Defense! Defense wins games not out scoring them on offense
