Anyone know why Wisconsin is wearing their road uniforms?

The officiating in this Wisconsin/Neb game is just dreadful.

 

[Mohawkeye]

Hate to say it, but Wisconsin is playing fairly well. Playing for an NCAA bid.

They're gonna have win, probably 2 of, at Maryland, at MSU, at Iowa and at Purdue the last month to get a bid. A lot of work

I think they will need to win 3 of those, they have been playing well lately but they started off in a big hole and don't have a huge signature win.

Wisc is now 15-9, 7-4. their remaining schedule:

at MD
at MSU
ILL
at IOWA
MICH
at MN
at purdue

I think they win just 3 of these 7 games (ILL, Mich, at MN)

if they finish 18-13, 10-8, what will they have to do in the B1G Tournament to make the Big Dance?

 

[StormHawk42]

Without two signature wins, they'll have to win the BTT. Their home loss to western Illinois (and others) really dug them a hole. Last I saw WIU was like 300 RPI.

I feel bad for them.

I think Rutgers could pound Oklahoma St and Texas Tech both. These teams are terrible in the bottom of the big 12

 

[EZ2BJZ]

If that is their record at the end of the season (18-13), then I would assume they would have to win at least two games in the B1G tournament. And even that might still keep them on the outside looking in.

Rutgers wouldn't pound any power 5 team.

Having said that, the strategy for OSU and Texas Tech has been absolutely mind boggling. You know your opponent is gonna run 6 maybe 7 deep. Their centers are 6'7 and 6'5 respectively. And you settle for jumpers. I would have my guards just attack attack and draw fouls even if they miss.

Exactly what I was thinking. Tubby has been around for awhile too so I'd expect better

 

[ABall 420]

Hopefully Niang talks trash to the wrong guy next year if he plays overseas and they piss pound him. Or maybe some looney fan.

 

[DavenportHawk8]

Marquette vs Providence was a GREAT game. WOW Marquette is becoming a tough team and getting better.

ISU is rolling Texas Tech as I expected. They will be right there down the stretch. Noticed that Niang and some of the other guys are starting to look "beat up" and worn down.

 

[Ronman]

ISU is "rolling" TT by three at this point. This game isn't over. It should worry clown fans that their mighty final four team is struggling with these Big 12 also rans

 

[Underscore2]

Lol @ teh clownies

 

[CadeHawk]

Minny goes on a 19-4 run to get within 2 with 90 seconds to play. Team and crown going nuts.

Then they piss it away... I love it. Their spirit will totally be broke on Sunday.

 

[EpenesaEpenesa]

The bank is open in Lubbock

Luv it !

 

[Ronman]

Obviously we don't realize just how good these bottom feeders of the Big 12 truly are.

 

[meatloaf55]

Good to see Marquette get another signature win over providence. Gives Iowa a bump

 

[Ronman]

Clowns go down again

 

[bhelm22]

I couldn't help myself, I had to fire up CF after Nader's bonehead foul. So much meltdown gold. Obviously this is all the refs fault, it's 5 vs 8 out there. LOL

 

[IACentralHawk73]

And that's why they're ISU.

 

[ABall 420]

Couldn't happen to a better fan base

 

[Err.]

it is because the Big 12 is so tough guys.

 

[ABall 420]

Cryclown meltdown

 

[SotaHawk87]

As for Wisconsin I don't think a 14 loss team has ever been an at large..

 

[Packer54]

4 top 25 loses in one night....again. This year is so wide open.
