[NU Sports] The Dance

[Beamsley, Jeff]

pre-maturity is what this is all about.
 
The opportunity to speculate, particular with a team like NU that may be getting their first invite, is why this particuar tournament is so captivating.
 
IMHO, Joe Lunardi at ESPN was reacting to facts on the ground.  He is predicting the 7 BT teams get invited.  He had projected Illinois as the 7th team, but with their loss at UNL, that leaves NU as the last BT invite.  
 
NU still has to take care of business on the road against Iowa and PSU, but a win over UoM would be huge.

Hope so, but sounds pre mature depending on how we do at the finish line
