How does the men’s basketball not receive a single vote in both the Coaches and AP poll for top 25?

A quick view at Nebraska’s achievements this season:

16-7 Overall Record – Same Record as…

• #9 Wisconsin

• #16 Alabama

• #18 Creighton

–

This Past Weeks Matchups…

• 80 – 72 OT win over #6 Wisconsin

• 84 – 87 OT loss against #14 Illinois on the road

–

Included in the Win Column…

• 88-72 win against #1 Purdue

• One of Purdues 2 losses in their entire season

• Purdue is still ranked #2 in the AP poll

–

Other facts…

• Wisconsin went down 5 places after their loss to Nebraksa

• Illinois gained 4 places after beating an unranked Nebraska in overtime at home

I’m not calling for the team to be ranked in the top 15. I’m not even saying that Nebraska deserves to be ranked. But this team has shown that they can stay with and even beat multiple top 15 teams throughout the season. I think it is a bit unfair that not a single vote was given to Nebraska when both Northwestern and MSU were given votes. I understand the concern that this team has struggled on the road, and that Wisconsin, Alabama, and Creighton have had different strength of schedule, but with the results they are getting, one might feel that Nebraska deserves higher praise.
