Nebraska beats USC 82-67 and the guys, justifiably spend much of the show swooning about Sam Hoiberg after he solidified his status as difference-maker, changing the trajectory of the game in the second half after having spent much of the first in foul trouble.And ohhhh, baby, that second half! Was Jack vindicated after his claim that the Nebraska Offense needs to push pace to get back to their old selves? Are we ready to say Old Rienk is back? Was Chad Baker Mazara the most winded player you’ve ever seen in an athletic competition? All of the questions are answered.Plus, a second divided Ryan Anderson Memorial (he’s not dead) MVP award, Jack goes off on "predictive metrics," and the immediate reaction to how this game and other results today change the seeding and NCAA location picture in ways that we didn’t expect coming into the game.Finally, a preview of UCLA and the guys’ late nights night watch party coming up on the I-80 Club YouTube channel Tuesday night!Support the I-80 Club Road Show by buying a hoodie here.

Nebraska had the home fans nervous through 75% of the game against Maryland, and then their early-season offense showed up, as Rienk Mast reverted to something much closer to his early season form and the Huskers end up winning comfortable again as a big favorite. Jack and Kaleb convene after the game to try and not use hindsight in describing just now nervous they were, and take a look at what seemed to holding the Huskers’ offense back during the first half (besides just missing shots).On the other hand, Jack explains why his takeaway from the game won’t be the first 75% of the game, but instead, the last ten minutes where the Nebraska offense came alive, and the surprise player he thinks was the key to the suddenly alive offense.The guys disagree on the Ryan Anderson Memorial (he’s not dead) Player of the Game and break down the horse race Nebraska will have with Purdue and Illinois, not only for conference tourney placement, but in sorting out #7-11 in the current committee rankings.And finally, before Nebraska takes on USC, the guys talk about a weirdly exciting Thursday and Friday night of Big Ten basketball coming up in the 48 hours after the show, and an up-to-the minute look at the current Big Ten Conference Tournament bracket!Support the I-80 Club Road Show by buying a hoodie here.

Or, watch on the I-80 Club YouTube channel.Let’s chat about Nebraska basketball blasting Penn State, the first NCAA seed reveal and the start of spring ball with HuskerMax’s Kaleb Henry!

What a change of pace for the Nebrasketball Hour crew, as Jack traded in despair tinged with rage lingering from the Iowa loss for a “wildly pleasant afternoon” as Nebraska cruised past Penn State 87-64.First, the latest on the injury to J-Law and Berke’s situation. Then, with Pryce Sandfort tying the school’s single game three-point shooting record and going for 33, the guys ask, "is he back" or more accurately "was he ever gone?" Perhaps the former question is better applied to Braden Frager, and Kaleb and Jack both lay out what they saw tonight that indicate perhaps he’s gotten over some of the lingering effects of his ankle injury.Plus, some more important questions:At what point in the second half did Penn State have it up to here with Same Hoiberg "trying" so much?Did we just figure out exactly the way Jared Garcia should be used?Why Rienk Mast still just seems... different?What about the Committee’s top 16 was annoying Jack today.Why the risk of Nebraska being "caught from behind" in the tourney pecking order may be less than you think.Finally, your chance to join the Road Crew to support the guys’ NCAA Road Show, wherever the Huskers are sent for Round 1,  AND get some exclusive gear to wear proudly around town. Support the I-80 Club Road Show by buying a hoodie here.
