Nebraska (20-12) plays at Mississippi on Monday night at 8:05. The game is on ESPNU. If Nebraska wins, they play the winner of the Virginia Tech/UAB game held at Virginia Tech. Assuming NU wins, Nebraska would play at Virginia Tech if they win. If UAB wins, they would play at Nebraska, it appears, on Tuesday night. The NIT final four begins then on April 1st at Madison Square Garden. Nebraska would play the winner coming out of the Ohio State, Illinois St., Dayton, and California games. NU could be there. They were in the top four of the big twelve at the end of the season!!
