mich looking rusty today. Layoff didn't do them any favors, at least that's what it looks like so far.
Hopefully now that Trump is gone, we can start trusting elected officials again with their decisions and not assume they are being political. Maybe they are making a decision based on evidence and facts? This is a new disease and there’s still a lot we don’t know. People are going to make mistakes.
If Michigan plays 18 games (the 9 they have played plus 3 games each week x 3 weeks left) and have a 3 game lead in the loss column, I think then you can give them a regular season title because even if they "forfeited" the 2 remaining games, they win the league by 1 game
Amazing that your delusion continues even after Trump has disgraced himself and repeatedly failed to produce any evidence of election fraud other than his own. The insurrection failed. Thank God, you are in the minority.You trust a patry that stole the election more thab the prty that got screwed? That is funny and sad
I hate Wisky but it would be nice to see Michigan lose their 2nd gameDo we have a preference who wins this or are we satisfied with Wisconsin burning a lot of fuel in the tank before we play them on Thursday?
It would, but we aren't going to catch them before the BTT. I think I would rather focus on staying ahead of Wisconsin.I hate Wisky but it would be nice to see Michigan lose their 2nd game
its crazy how most journalists/analysts had the Top 5 of the B1G to be:It would, but we aren't going to catch them before the BTT. I think I would rather focus on staying ahead of Wisconsin.
a 14 point Wisky lead ended up being an 8 point loss11-2 run by Michigan down the stretch ... 65-59 Wolves lead with 10.9 seconds left.

Must be nice not to have the grind of the season. Imagine if Luka wasn't beat to hell and tired and CJ wasn't injured.
If there is going to be unfairness side with the teams and players that played and proved it on nthe court. Football is not basketball and last I checked Ohio State beat Indiana head to head.
Michigan can win every single game currently left on their schedule but if they don't make up most of those other games they belong outside the championship. Make them a 5 seed honestly unless they play enough games to earn a 4 seed or above for the big ten tournament. Why should they get the bye when they have already had so many?
People that make a living out of politics are there primarily based on their willingness to lie and accept bribes.
Thats why they're all wealthy beyond their means when they leave.
If you trust these people you are being foolish.
I have said it before and I will say it again. I think the B1G is just waiting to see how this plays out.to be fair as long as the Illinois game gets rescheduled they will have played every other opponent and if they were to win every game they will likely have more wins than any other team has despite playing fewer games. It would seem something like 15-1 would be fully deserving of the conference title and #1 seed ahead of a team that went 14-6. (and no I am not suggesting they would likely be 15-1, just pointing out the absurdity of arguing if they don't play all the games they can't be the champ or the #1 seed).
There is no way Michigan deserves the crown. Illinois and OSU have larger claim at this point. See how the final 3 weeks go but I think tournament needs to be the only champion this year.
I might have a different take on how to manage unplayed games, but I do agree that the B1G office should have been clear up front about the plan. You don't have to have magic powers to anticipate that there would be an issue with Covid affecting the schedule.Should have started the season with a rule on the table requiring teams to play all scheduled conference games prior to end of regular season. All unplayed games should be forfeited,,.. Big Ten management is worthless.

No reason Michigan can't do the same thing...
It takes 2 to reschedule a game. Everybody wants to see Nebraska. Of Michigan's 5 postponed games, only the home game with Illinois is against a real contender. Missing out on weaker teams like MSU, Northwestern, and Penn State is depriving Michigan of many of the easier games on the schedule. I assume MSU will do everything in their power to not reschedule with Michigan as there is no way Izzo wants to get beat down twice.
That's why you play the games though. Iowa fans thought the Indiana games were going to be a cake walks as well. Iowa ended with two loses. Some teams just matchup better even if they are perceived as a mismatch.It takes 2 to reschedule a game. Everybody wants to see Nebraska.

Except even those so called easy games take a physical toll. In the big ten even those bad teams can catch you on an off night.
Boy, that W at PSU really sticks out, lol. Let's see how it turns out on the 23rd.Interesting that the B1G is having no problem rescheduling when it comes to Little Debbie.

Michigan (10-1) keeps on winning.
However, they only have 4 more games scheduled at the moment. Crazy.
it is a given that rescheduled games will happen, the dates just have not been announced.
Unless dates are changed in these scheduled games, the only likely date for Michigan vs Illinois is Feb 25.

Feb 21 at OSU
Feb 27 at Indiana
March 4 vs Iowa
March 7 at Michigan State

75 million would disagree with your skewed view. MAGA forever!Amazing that your delusion continues even after Trump has disgraced himself and repeatedly failed to produce any evidence of election fraud other than his own. The insurrection failed. Thank God, you are in the minority.
