Whether Nebraska basketball is viewed as a traditional Cinderella or not, writes Sam McKewon, it's going to reap the rewards — this week and beyond. 

Nebraska and Iowa's upcoming Sweet 16 game is a "hard hat" battle, Amie Just writes, that the Huskers know will come down to physicality. 

The regular season featured 85 minutes of loud, physical and emotionally draining basketball between Nebraska and Iowa. The last chapter of the trilogy is Thursday.
