NW beats Michigan St by 14

[wbrhawkeye]

Wow. What a major upset. At least we won’t drop behind them or IL. They play WI next, so I’m sure they will be out for blood.

Iowa now needs to focus on winning the BIG rather than being ranked number 1. Gotta take down Purdue.

BigTen is gonna be a meat grinder.... 5 or 6 losses may win the league

Depends how many games are played. 15-5 would certainly win it....be damn hard to get there

Oh and boo boo pretty good

I don’t think the hawks lose more than 3. We run away with the league. Book it.

the 2nd to worst team in the B1G beats the #4 team in the country.

crazy

I have been saying 5 losses wins league. Also been saying a 2 seed is the highest any BIG should expect because of it. Here is my prediction on seeds.

Iowa-2....major homer call
MSU-3
Wisky-3
Illinois-3
Rutgers-5
Ohio state-6
Purdue-7
Michigan-8
Indiana-9
Maryland- play in or Minnesota play in

imagine if these arenas were full of fans?

I do think you are right; the B1G winner might be 15-5

I would disagree if someone only lost 2 games, that team would get a 1.

NW is undefeated. I doubt they are second worst.

Torvik currently projects Wisconsin to win the conference at 15-5 with Illinois, Michigan, and Rutgers tied for 2nd at 12-8.

KenPom currently projects Wisconsin at 14-6 with Iowa at 13-7 and Rutgers, Michigan, and Illinois at 12-8.


Honestly I'd be surprised if anybody gets to 15-5. I think 14-6 probably wins the conference and 13-7 has a reasonable chance at sharing a title. Just too many tough games. Northwestern now up to #58 nationally on KenPom. Nebraska is the only truly bad team in the conference.

And when freshman shooting guard Ty Berry is in the game, Northwestern features a Boo Berry backcourt.

coming into the season wasn't N'w considered 13th in the B1G and Little Debbie 14th?

 

[HawkLogic]

I read MSU was without Hauser ---their best post threat and Langford had foul trouble.

I fear Iowa is going to run into a few buzz saws in B1G with random teams going off on 3pt shooting.
It is difficult to win if you give up more than 20 3pt attempts and let the opponent shoot 50%.

Perhaps. I saw some pundit say NW was their dark horse to compete for the BT title.

Whoa, whoa there Purple Kitties!

Just 1 game. Don't be ready to declare yourselves the B1G champs just yet.

I love”book it” posters.

🤣

Every year, people are surprised by upsets.
