Three things Nebraska needs to succeed in Big Ten Tournament

They need to feed Palmer and Roby

I would say Nebraska basketball would need to make an effort to get scoring opportunities for everybody. However, it has been evident these past couple games that there are two players that you can count on a given night. James Palmer and Isaiah Roby are those guys. Glynn Watson certainly provides a nice third option, and he has been playing better, but sometimes he can (as we saw this season) disappear. Palmer and Roby have shown that they can bring it every single night.

Palmer scored 27 points on 10-of-24 shooting Sunday He went two-of-eight from behind the arc and five-of-11 from the free-throw line. He also showed he could be the conductor of the offense, recording six assists. Isaiah Roby was efficient on the afternoon. He went nine-of-12 from the field and was a perfect four-of four from behind the arc. His eight rebounds were a tremendous asset as he was able to establish his dominance in the paint. Watson himself had a nice afternoon playing in 42 minutes, and going seven of-15 from the field and seven-of 12 from the three-point line. In total, he scored 23 points.

Nebraska basketball, when they are playing well, has a big three of sorts in Palmer, Roby, and Watson. When they are on fire, they can be unstoppable. The biggest thing for them would be to realize that this is a new season, and a chance to forget about all the lows of the regular season. They need to play well in order for Nebraska to have a chance in the tournament next week. If all three can get going every single night, Nebraska basketball will be difficult to stop.
