Summary
Nebraska Cornhuskers are primed for another deep tournament run in 2026-27, riding off a historic 28-7 season that included their first two NCAA Tournament wins and a Sweet Sixteen appearance. Projected at No. 15, they’ve lost key players like Kendall Blue and Rienk Mast but return scoring leader Pryce Sandfort — an All-Big Ten First Teamer and top-30 nationally ranked player — who’s the engine of this offense. They’ve also bolstered the frontcourt with high-profile transfers including Boden Kapke, Sam Orme, and Damon Wilkinson, plus promising freshman shooter Colin Rice. Their showdown against Missouri marks the first meeting since 2011 — a long-dormant rivalry set to ignite. With Sandfort leading and new talent filling gaps, Nebraska looks poised to challenge even the toughest opponents — and Missouri better be ready.
