VOTE: Which team wins the B1G Tournament? KenPom has Purdue & Iowa as the Favorites
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
NW will be a tougher matchup for Nebraska than one might think. Nebraska won’t have an answer for Pete Nance and we only saw the Wildcats without Boo Buie, their T-1 leading scorer. Hopefully the winner is drained going into day two so we can get the reserves some work and the starters some rest
we need to finally break thru and win the damn thing again
Iowa's style of play travels?
Guessing mugging, ball punching, coach slapping, and 7 footer running over people doesn't travel?
Dunno. Kofi travels constantly so Illinois has a great chance too.
Kofi is a larger Glen Worley. Change my mind...🤔😁
Kidding of course but both were/are world class travelers.
Note that the hypocrite Greg Gard is outraged by the hard foul on Johnny Davis and "will make the necessary phone calls."
Too bad he never showed some outrage for his own dirty player, Brad Davison.
The story from ESPN:
Tenth-ranked Wisconsin lost leading scorer Johnny Davis when he was injured on a flagrant foul early in the second half, and the Badgers missed a chance to clinch the Big Ten title outright by falling to Nebraska 74-73 on Sunday.
Davis was hurt when he was fouled on a layup try by Trey McGowens with 17:32 left. Davis went to the locker room and didn't return to the bench, and the Badgers said he was out with a lower body injury.
Davis averages 20.3 points and 8.3 rebounds. He scored 10 before being injured by McGowens, who was ejected.
"I'm optimistic that he's going to be fine,'' Wisconsin coach Greg Gard said, without elaborating further on Davis' injury.
"The officials knew my thoughts, and knew them actually before it happened on some other things that I saw. I'll leave it at that and I'll watch the replay and I'll make the necessary phone calls," Gard said.
Wisconsin (24-6, 15-5) now must settle for sharing the title with No. 20 Illinois, which beat No. 24 Iowa 74-72 on Sunday night. Illinois will be the top seed in the Big Ten tournament that begins Wednesday at Indianapolis.

Badgers top scorer Davis injured on flagrant foul
Wisconsin leading scorer Johnny Davis suffered a lower-body injury on a flagrant foul Sunday in the Badgers' loss to Nebraska.
Andy Katz just said Illinois is the best team in the B1G & could go the furthest in the NCAA Tournament.
Andy Katz and Dave Revsine talking about Purdue:
They were ranked #1 in the country at one time
They have not played well defensively
They don't put teams away and have gotten burned.

Andy Katz and Dave Revsine talking about OSU:
OSU has lost 3 of 4
They are banged up w/ injuries. They probably won't do well this week or next.

Indiana vs Michigan:
IU needs this game to make the NCAA Tournament.
IU has done a poor job at finishing games
They have not been healthy, too
IU fans will show up and be loud; will that help?
Juwan Howard will be back on the bench

@MrsScrew , are you betting $100 to win $2,300?
I wonder if any Nebby fans will bet $100 for a chance to win $100,000!??!
you would think pregame opposing coaches would make the refs aware of this!
agreed.

I would if NJ allowed betting on NJ college teams. But, alas, His royal highness, Philip of Murphy, has decreed NO ( plus it didn't pass the public vote in the last election)
B10 Twitter always hated the way Garza was allowed to move on the block, it's the same treatment for every star.
Its only traveling IF they call it, SO......
are you saying the refs are incompetent?
I just read that Iowa has never won a BTT game as a #5 seed
That should change on Thursday
That should change on Thursday
Can't help ya if you've got fan-boy blinders on. Go search "Garza chicken wing" on Twitter and every fanbase we played complained about the refs allowing him to move defenders with his elbow prior to his torso moving.
Alford won 2 BTT titles.
2001: he won 4 games in 4 days
2006: he won 3 games in 3 days. I won't tell you what happened a few days later.
we need to break the 16 year drought
