Projection: likely out
Nebraska's season demonstrates some promise but ultimately leaves them on the outside looking in when it comes to tournament selection. Their victories over teams like Indiana and UCLA stand out, showcasing their ability to compete with higher-ranked opponents, but the lack of consistency is troubling, highlighted by their lopsided losses to Michigan State and Wisconsin. Moreover, the defeats to teams like Maryland and Illinois signal struggles against fellow conference adversaries that will weigh heavily on their resume. With a mixed bag of results against both strong and weak competition, it's clear they need more marquee wins down the stretch to bolster their case for an invite, particularly as they face tough matchups against the likes of Iowa and Purdue.
