That is not true.
If Rutgers and Nebraska win (49.6% chance), we will be the 13th seed facing Nebraska with a matchup against Wisconsin if we win.
If Minnesota and Nebraska win (23.4% chance), we will be the 14th seed facing Minnesota with a matchup against Purdue if we win.
If Rutgers and Iowa win (18.4% chance), we will be the 13th seed facing Minnesota with a matchup against Wisconsin if we win.
If Minnesota and Iowa win (8.6% chance), we will be the 15th seed facing Ohio State with a matchup against Illinois if we win.
I want that 13th seed matchup whether it's Nebraska or Minnesota, so go Rutgers!
No, USC is in regardless. If Iowa loses they will be 6-14 with everyone else being 7-13 or better. If Nebraska loses, they are out because they lost to Rutgers, Minnesota, Iowa and USC, so they don't have the tiebreaker over any of them.
Scenarios where we go Nebeaska or Minnesota, then Wisconsin, then UCLA are all to my liking.
You might have been looking at the line in that thread where NU beats Maryland.
If Iowa and Minnesota win today, NU gets the 15th seed like Cappy said above.
I predict unlikely since both teams are playing away games.
Ah oops! My eye jumped between two lines and i misread. Thanks for the correction!
Cats bracket is brutal. Not like it matters. Was hoping to play Ohio state then the Illini.
I don’t know
Minnesota Wisconsin is not horrible. Wisconsin has lost a lot of games lately, think our chances versus them might be as good or better than Illinois.
From what I see we are #13 facing #12 Minnesota in the 1st Round. If we win then it is on against #5 Wisconsin in the 2nd Round. If we win a second time, then it is on to #4 UCLA in the quarterfinals. Win again, then "Most Likely" would be facing Michigan State in the seminfinals. The first game seems winnable as NU already beat Minnesota on the road. NU can play with anybody in the Big Ten, but the top of the conference going up to the #7 or #8 seed is going to be a challenge regardless. For now, I'm happy to be in the tournament. Hoping for a miracle run to the conference championship title and auto-bid to the Big Dance, but mostly likely is NIT bid.

This was best case scenario to my mind. Not easy but I think our guys look at that bracket and see a path.
