BTT tonite .

[hawkjt]

OSU is clearly gelling by the game.
All their young players are playing their best BB of the season.

They hang in strong vs physical Illini.
Two teams that play tough BB.
Good game.

 

[bulletproof90]

How lame do they look being this talented but being at the bottom of the conference almost all year, though.

 

[denmar81]

Shit show by officials in this game. Dainja for Illinois just pushing OSU out of the way and getting away with it. 3 OSU players with 4 fouls with 7 to go.

 

[Chishawk1425]

Ohio St is good like I said when we were losing. They should be in if they beat Illinois.

 

[hawkjt]

I think both these teams could be sweet 16 possibilities.
But, if PU is the only BIG team making the 16, it will confirm that the BIG is down again.

 

[Chishawk1425]

I think both these teams could be sweet 16 possibilities.

Agreed

 

[Chishawk1425]

Fantastic game

 

[General Tso]

Sigh... talent...

Sigh... talent...

Iowa played like shit vs both of these teams and it was still fairly close.

 

[DirtyJohns97]

Nice play Zed

 

[hawkjt]

Loose balls sink bucks!
Costs the BIG a bid.

 

[Roncuba55]

Do they keep Diebler or go for the home run hire?

And 24 hours later Ohio State joins Iowa in the NIT

Yeah, thought the zebras might call it straight up to get another team in, but no.

Should have known that from last night's game.

2nd half started out with five fouls on Iowa to OSU's one.

I think they should at least interview him and allow him to apply for the position.....He's been fantastic since being placed in the interim position.

 

[HawkBall23]

lulz.

After checking the scores, glad I stopped caring about the BTT & Champ. Week after 7:30p last night.

Based on current score, 3 of the 4 remaining teams in the BTT are the ones I dislike the very most.

The fact that either Illinois or Nebraska - and possibly even Wisconsin, if Purdue has an off day tomorrow - will be playing for the BTT trophy on Sunday irks me something fierce.

Transfers are huge for all 4 semi-finalists.
Fran has to up his portal game.
Go figure...I did not think Freddy's style of roster-building at ISU was sustainable but he has the last laugh as COY.
Turns out he was just ahead of the pack at ISU/ TranferU.

Prior to the portal, ISU used the juco route to help prop them up in BB and FB

Yeah,nothing like the embarrassing beat down Nebby handed Indy.

 

[hawkjt]

Nebraska maybe should have saved some ammo for Illini.
Should be a good game if Japan's best can stay hot.

Iowa IU and OSU will be in the right tourney.
The BIG will send 5 BIG West and MSU to dance.
BIG West might suck in FB but BIG East sucks in BB..
Hawks went 4-5 vs tourney teams in BIG.
