Nebraska has a string of winnable games before they host Wisconsin, which finishes their regular season. The good news is that a bunch of their losses aren't bad (UMass, @ Creighton, @ Cincy, @ Iowa, @ Ohio State, and the two to Michigan) - Nebraska had a tough, tough schedule this year. The bad news is that the Huskers don't have many good wins - before today, their strongest victory was at home over Ohio State, with a steep drop off below that, so Nebraska doesn't have many chances to add quality wins.
The Purdue game will be very interesting. As of now, Nebraska should have a better chance of making the tournament because Purdue's best win is a pain in the rear end to find (Minnesota? West Virginia?), but they already have a victory over the Huskers, and they have several chances to pick up Top 25 wins before the B1G Tournament.
