OMG, @EvilMonkeyInTheCloset , who ya rooting for?
Ugh, don’t ever like to root for Whisky but UM needs a loss
Shouldn’t the Hawks be listed at the top...1/2 game lead with 12 wins vs Michigan with 11 overall?
Actually, they have it right. 11-1 is better than 12-2 because of win percentage, with a 0 game difference in the overall standings.
Michigan........11-1 (.917)
IOWA..............12-2 (.857)
If thd season ended today, the overall record would only count for seeding, not that the schedules are remotely similar. Iowa is tied for the league lead otherwise, and they have played a much tougher schedule.
@Alum-Ni how many sites do you do this on? I appreciate your work.
Yeah, I get it.
I was just answering @perryhawk's question, where he was wondering why Michigan was listed ahead of Iowa in the standings. He thought the Hawks should be listed at the very top with a 1/2 game lead over Michigan. I then pointed out that there is a 0 game difference in BOTH the conference standings AND in the overall standings. Michigan is simply listed ahead of Iowa because of overall win percentage.

Seems like just yesterday that Northwestern was on top of the Big Ten and ranked #18. Things change oh so quickly.
Finally! Geo Baker set a few B1G records last night too. Damn shame 8000 RU fans couldn't be in the RAC last night to watch & cheer him & the rest of the team. We probably would have won by 30
Does IU go in another direction next year? I know the natives have had enough of the Archie Miller experience from everything I have read.
Archie could be the assistant Iowa is looking for ... he knows how to beat Iowa (This year!) ...

We did that without any assistance from Archie...
Ha.... that aint a bad idea. How about a Sr. consulting role as a defensive assistant like they do at Alabama for football.Archie could be the assistant Iowa is looking for ... he knows how to beat Iowa (This year!) ...
i feel like we have Elite 8 games today
#1 Michigan vs #2 Ohio State
#1 Illinois vs #2 Iowa
Look at what we have accomplished! First double-bye in years. Beat Wisky (3X) and got to the final four of our conference tourney. Defense is better. We're a two-seed in the dance and will have opportunities to keep advancing there, as long as we play smart and play to our strengths or above. I'm happy about where we're at in spite of a temporary setback today. A loss at this point in the season may be what the Dr. ordered. We'll see.
