While the polls are not a 1-to-1 comparison when trying to figure out what seed Nebraska basketball will earn in a couple of weeks, the AP putting the Huskers back in the Top 10 is a very good sign. Fred Hoiberg's squad went 2-0 last week, the first time they've done that in a while, and the voters apparently believed that (along with several upsets to other Top 15 teams) earned them respect.
The Cornhuskers are back at No. 9, continuing a season where they've spent several weeks being considered one of the best teams in the country.
