The Nebraska basketball team has a chance to supercharge its tournament run on Thursday night. When the Huskers take on the #6 Wisconsin Badgers at PBA, it’s bound to be an electric atmosphere. Games between these two teams late in the year tend to be slobber knockers.
A loss certainly isn’t a season ender. The Huskers are ranked 60th in the NET ratings, but there’s still plenty of season to move up the ranks. But a win … a win means a lot and not just because it would allow the Huskers to boast two wins over Top 10 teams in Lincoln this season.
