The Cornhuskers aren't satisfied with their first-ever NCAA Tournament win. They own the nation's No. 7 defense, per KenPom, and match up well with Vanderbilt. I see this as a pick-'em, so I took the points with Nebraska.
It did not look like a neutral site at all in Oklahoma City as “Go Big Red” chants rang out across a red-clad Paycom Center for Nebraska’s first-ever NCAA Tournament win. Since the nature of the victory was a slow, cruising coronation I’m not expecting too much of an emotional hangover or letdown for the Cornhuskers, who were very much in rhythm on offense and knocked down 14 three-pointers in the win. I would not be surprised at all to see plenty of big swings and lead changes throughout the game, but at the end of 40 minutes I think the Cornhuskers to move on to the Sweet 16 so I’ll take the value of a couple points as an underdog.
