Short answer: The Nevada couldn't have gotten underway as quick as she did if the torpedo nets were in place. One the other hand, one BB got NINE torpedo hits. (Make your eyes water. )
She took a beating. I have a diagram that shows where all the hits occured. The Japanese were still dropping torps on her, even as the main deck postside was awash.
