A Beginning

They made a positive start to their campaign and showed signs of promise during the early years as they posted multiple winning seasons to win major titles. However, after the NCAA started sponsoring Division I basketball, the Cornhuskers’ fortunes started to suffer and led to a period of stagnation, which lasted till the late eighties.

Good Times

The Cornhuskers won their first conference division season title in 1908 and repeated that feat five more times over the next few years. They have also been crowned conference regular champions season six times in total. They have appeared in the NCAA tournament on seven occasions and have won it once, in 1994.
