Those NET scores demonstrate just how far the B1G has fallen this season.

 

[onlyTheObvious]

Kind of thinking the NIL sponsors at the football schools don’t feel like funding two sports.

Apparently only when it is a BIG 10 school.

 

[HawkLogic]

Apparently only when it is a BIG 10 school.

I don't see many of the Big Time football programs in the Top25 NET, so it doesn't appear to be a B1G only phenomena.


The one NET ranking that seems really off is Northwestern behind Iowa.

 

[Iafootballfan]

Wisconsin might be the most overrated team in the country. They have one good win over Marquette, at home.

 

[hawkjt]

Historically, MSU Mich IU OSU and Iowa would join PU ILL and Wis as top 20 teams.
Hawks are in a rebuiding mode but these others should be stronger.

MSU imo should be top ten...not sure why they are not better. They have the highest ranked frosh(top ten) Booker, but he hardly contributes...hurt maybe?

IU OSU and Mich have had top recruits bail to NBA early recently which is a killer for team building.

I have always said HAWKS need recruits ranked fro 30- 100...not one and done guys.
If we somehow convinced Tony to come back and we add a true big in the portal to join Koch and tjado next year we might just be ready for a very good season.

Check out the SEC.
