Nebraska's resume shows a mixed bag of results, which places them firmly in the conversation for the tournament but with significant concerns; they have quality wins against teams like UCLA and Indiana, but notable losses to higher-ranked opponents like Michigan State and Purdue highlight defensive vulnerabilities. Their recent performance is crucial; winning upcoming games, especially against teams like Minnesota and Iowa, could strengthen their case for a bid, while any slip-ups in these matchups could jeopardize their standing. Consistency on both ends of the court will be essential—their offensive capabilities shine through, but they must address defensive lapses, particularly in games against ranked competition.
