VT wins that battle, though Nebraska nearly got on that board last Saturday

Nebraska did have an opportunity to beat Purdue in regulation, but Jamarques Lawrence slipped on condensation from the Purdue huddle and turned the ball over while bringing the ball up court for a final shot attempt. The game went to OT and Purdue won. Nebraska also did a great job of taking care of business against the teams they should have beaten. All of their losses this season were to NCAA tournament teams. Of those teams to beat Nebraska this season, only UCLA has been eliminated so far.

The talent gap between these teams and VT is huge. IDK if we can get there.
