In the latest episode of Half-Court Press, Wilson Moore and Jon Walker discuss the latest in Nebraska and Creighton basketball, including a weird week on the road for the Huskers and why the Bluejays have dropped a pair of games in a row.

The guys open with a look at NU's bizarre comeback over Northwestern and what led Nebraska on its furious second-half rally before breaking down the reasons for the letdown against Penn State.

Wilson discusses why the loss is certainly bad, but doesn't burst the team's NCAA tournament chances.

Jon then talks about CU losing two in a row after nine straight wins and lists off the reasons why they fell short to St. John's such as losing the turnover, rebound and free throw battles.

The guys have a conversation about Ryan Kalkbrenner's injury and its impact on the loss but how the center returned and will be in action this weekend.

Next, the duo look ahead to the team's next opponent, diving into the Huskers' keys to beating Michigan revolving around a NU player's injury status.

Jon talks about why Creighton's matchup vs. Georgetown is a measuring stick after the Jays lost by 24 to the Hoyas in the Big East opener.

To close the episode, the two predict each conference's postseason awards and finish with One Pressing Question.
