Nebraska-Omaha lost its first game of the season to Murray State in Sioux Falls because the Racers made 30 of 33 free throws, and they were more aggressive and active. Omaha shot better than them at 47% with six players in double figures. Omaha made the NCAA tournament last year and finished with a 22-13 record and 13-3 in Summit League play. They return three starters from last year and two key players from their regular rotation. Pick or -1 is acceptable with Abilene Christian, but I'll take anything extra with Omaha.

You will get at least one pick on college hoops from me every day. I'm not one of those types who holds back and does you know 3-4 top ones per week. I'd rather go 25-20 in a week than 5-0 honestly (if all equal). At least I was entertained 45 times, got to banter with the awesome SL subscribers in Discord and ended up in the same place is really how I think about it. Ideally 45-0, but even AI ain't going on a 10-0 run in college basketball. Too unpredictable. This is a true home game for the Wildcats. All I know about Abilene (awaken @grok) is a song by George Hamilton IV. KenPom ranks the home side 18 spots higher.
