The forecast for Thursday: Hot and messy as Nebraska and Iowa tangle again

from Locked On Nebraska - Daily Podcast on the Nebraska Cornhuskers · host Locked On Podcast Network

This week is moving fast. Thursday night will be here before we know it. Nebraska and Iowa are set to meet in the Sweet 16 at 6:30 p.m., the second game in the next round of the NCAA Tournament. Connor and Mitch are diving into the matchup. How can the Huskers stay even with the Hawkeyes on the boards? Who are the players that matter most when the Big Ten rivals meet for the third time in five weeks?  We’re also looking at big news in the state of Nebraska from Monday. Creighton coach Greg McDermott announced his retirement after 16 seasons on Monday. McDermott paved a path for Fred Hoiberg to enter the college coaching world in 2010 – and the two coaches have remained close through their time together at the rival schools in this state. How does McDermott’s departure, coupled with the Huskers’ rise this season, affect the basketball landscape in Nebraska? Join us.
