Nebraska's Surprising Setback: What’s Next for the Team’s Unbeaten Streak?

Illinois comes into the game ranked ninth in the country, which, I believe, is the highest they’ve been all season. They are 18-3 for the year and 9-1 in Big 10 play. They are currently riding a 10-game winning streak into this game. Interested in who their last loss was to? That would be this Nebraska squad who beat them at home on a buzzer-beater. To be clear, it isn’t like Nebraska would’ve lost the game had they missed the shot, it would’ve just been an overtime game, which does take some pressure off of the offense. The Illini at the time were favored by almost 10 points. Nebraska has since shown the world that they are a pretty good squad. The other losses that Illinois has taken this season were against UConn, and Alabama. Both of those games came on a neutral court. The Alabama game was a tightly contested battle, but the loss to UConn was kind of ugly, seeing them lose by 13 points.
