Other games.

Cautiously optimistic about a double bye in the B1G tourney.

good bye love your home GIF by Ørsted
 
Down goes Rutgers! Thank you cornholes.
What a glorious night so far....just validates a couple of things. Any given day or night in BB especially this year in the B1G....the people complaining about the Hawk 12 point victory on the road against Minny.....well are clueless. Also, to point out, two of the better defensive teams in the B1G are the Illini and Rutgers...the Illini give up 93 in the loss and Rutgers at home give up 82 and to add against a pretty good offensive team in Nebby who is #4 in the B1G in offense.......and Iowa beat Rutgers twice who of course is numero uno........hmmmmm.....again, crazy game....like a box of chocolates.

I know MSU has tiebreaker vs Iowa, but who has tiebreaker when comparing records - against each other - between all the teams at 8-6 right now?

Iowa has to be up there, if not the one with the best record.

Without research, I'm thinking Iowa would be the 4-seed in the BTT if season ended tonight.
It goes to round robin records vs all of the tied teams:

Mich St. 3-1 (head 2 head vs Iowa)
Iowa 3-1
Maryland 2-3
Illinois 1-2
Michigan 1-2 (Michigan and Illinois have yet to play each other.)
 
hopefully the NCAA tournament is as crazy as well and Iowa makes the Final 4!!

why the hell not? @EvilMonkeyInTheCloset deserves a Final 4, after all!
Taking Championship Week off. Can't wait for the wall to wall conference tourney basketball games.

All that crazyness as teams fight for their NCAA-T lives or try to improve their seeding/location oppos.

Me too.

But let's revisit this after Thursday night's game. Should be a win vs OSU at home, but .......

Does it feel like this is Holtmann's 6th season at tOSU? He's won 20 games each season so far. A disappointing 11-14 so far this year.

He's won 63% of his games at OSU. Fran, in comparison, has won 60% of his games at Iowa.

Thank you.

This website will calculate it all out. You can play with it putting in various results that may or may not happen in the remaining games and it gives you the BTT seeding given on the various scenarios.

Just don't let this game get close. Normally I can laugh at Hepburn's terrible hero-ball fadeaways in tight, late game situations. Not tonight.

Holy sh*t.

Dickinson was basically bearhugging Crowl on the last Wisconsin possession, down low, and no call. Forced a SC violation.
 
Wisconsin hasn't made a field goal since the 10:45 mark of the 2nd half, but is up 4 with just under :41 left.


This is why I hate Wisconsin's 'brand' of bball. So effing ugly.

You don't score for 11 minutes and still lead? Puke.
