Thursday morning will be here before you know it. It’s the week of the first round of the NCAA Tournament, a hectic time around Nebraska as the men’s and women’s basketball programs prep for first-round games. Fred Hoiberg’s Huskers are headed to Oklahoma City to take on Troy. We’re deep into our preview of the matchup and conversation about all that’s at stake as Nebraska aims for its first win in this event. Hoiberg is high on the Trojans, champions of the Sun Belt. But the Nebraska coach is touting his players’ strengths and experience, too. How important is a crisp start for Nebraska with an 11:40 a.m. tip? And what’s with all these football people jumping on the basketball bandwagon? The more, the merrier, we saw, as long as your intentions are genuine. We check in also on the Nebraska women, who are headed to Durham, N.C., for a First Four matchup against Richmond. Join us.
