Huskers vs Wildcats (Wed Night)

In this tussle between the Cats and 'Skers at Memorial Stadium... err, I mean wherever the Huskers play their basketball games (Devany Center, or whatever) they are fighting for positioning in the Big XII.

These two teams are tied for the 6th spot right now.

The Cats don't play in Lincoln all that well and NU is coming off their biggest win (possibly evar) against #2 UT (who hadn't lost all season in Big XII play).

How I see it...

NU 58
KSU 54

Never been more glad to be wrong

84-68

Talk about a sweet arse game last night by the Cats. Jacob Pullen played like everyone thought he would the ENTIRE season.

Defense won this game for the Cats - they played great!

Had someone told me that Curtis Kelly and Jamar Samuels would combine for 9 points and the Cats would win, I would have been SHOCKED.

Remaining Schedule:
*vs OU
*@ NU
*vs MU
*@ UT
*vs ISU

*Have to win THREE of these (OU and ISU are gimmees); then beating NU is next easiest, then Mizzou and UT game is the hardest (but really, K-State OWNS Texas in football and basketball).

Win three of em plus a game in the Big XII Tourney and they will be in the BIG DANCE.

Big Monday... KU @ KSU

This WAS supposed to have been a HUGE game in the grand scheme of things. How things have changed.

KU is the new #1 team in the nation and KSU... well, lost to Colorado for the second time this year (how sad).

This game WILL be U G L Y! I give K-State a 0.0007% chance of winning. KU is too big for the Cats and will probably shoot 60% from the field (whilst the Cats shoot at the 28% mark).

Prediction (besides pain)...

KU 83
KSU 51
