At the beginning of the season, I laid out a preview of my thoughts for the year. You can find them here. Now that we are almost entirely out of non-conference play, I figured I would revisit some of the things that have happened so far. It didn’t take long for the Huskers to begin its reign with the nation’s longest winning streak when Florida lost the opening game of the season to Arizona. That’s right, Nebraska’s victory in last year’s College Basketball Crown tournament gave Nebraska the longest win streak at 4 games.
The beyond great news is this, the Huskers surprisingly have not given up that win streak. Nebraska has gone on to set a couple of school records, one of which is the longest win streak (currently residing at 16 games) and the best start to a season in school history (currently residing at 12-0). The Huskers next opportunity to extend both of those records comes on December 30th, when New Hampshire comes into town.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you haven’t given much thought to the basketball season, I implore you to consider it. Your fandom shouldn’t stop at just the football or volleyball team. You should be full-throated and blood-pumping in the wintertime for wrestling, men’s and women’s basketball, and then again in the spring for baseball and softball. Obviously, don’t forget about the gymnastics, track and field, rifle and bowling team. EVERYONE needs your support.

Yes, the season isn’t quite to the halfway point, especially with the remaining gauntlet that is the Big Ten awaiting. 18 conference games await this team still, but I’m making a bold new prediction.

I’ve decided to go a little bolder because I’ve seen what this team can do.
