Everyone at SLU felt very good about their win over Nebraska on Wednesday, and with good reason. Even if Nebraska isn’t all that good, it presented challenges that SLU hadn’t seen in any of games so far and the Billikens…

I’ve got another story to work on today, so I’ll make some quick thoughts about the SLU-SEMO game.
