Who Wins the B1G Reg Season Championship? Who are Seeds #2, #3 & #4 in the BTT?

[MeetTheFerentz]

That said I see Iowa finishing 3-0, Wisconsin finishing 2-1, MSU finishing 2-1 and PSU and Illinois finishing 1-2 so there will be a 3-way tie between MSU, Iowa and Wisconsin for 2nd place at 13-7. In that scenario Iowa is 2-seed.

Not that it's terribly important, but in your scenario, Iowa would be the #3 seed. With no head-to-head tie-breaker for IA-MSU-WI (all 3 teams being 1-1 against the other 2), next tie-breaker is record vs. Maryland, so that would go #2 WI (1-0), #3 IA (1-1) and #4 MSU (0-2).

 

[El Simbolo]

Why focus solely on 2nd, 3rd or 4th seed? This guy’s figured the 1-seed is still out there for us...

Robbie thinks Iowa finishes 2nd.

Watch:

Good stuff from the HOFer.

so much for 2nd place! LOL

 

[StormHawk42]

Not that it’s a great accomplishment but we have officially avoided Wednesday in the BTT.

 

[SpartyHawk1]

Still outside shot at a six-way tie for the title.

 

[Franisdaman]

Hate to say it but I think Iowa can handle 3 games in 3 days at the most

 

[MeetTheFerentz]

Next step is to lock up a 5/6 seed, which would mean we would be playing a team that played the day before. I believe we would do that with a win on Tue.

outside of the weak path that wisky has, the rest of the teams in the top 6 have challenges. I'm looking forward to a fun week of B1G game watching.

 

[truehawkfan45]

Minny got absolutely hosed. Wisconsin’s PG was so clearly over and back on the Pritzl 3 that took the lead. Also had 2 should be jump-balls but instead got called for fouls

hopefully IU takes care of Wisky at home at Assembly Hall

that's a huge home game for IU that they need and hopefully get

Current Bracket:

As much as I loathe seeing wisky finish as high as 3rd I could live with that bracket if it meant getting another chance to beat them.

We need a few gears to turn.

unfortunately, i think 3 games in 3 days is all this 8 man Iowa rotation can handle

Would love to see it happen, and it would in a perfect world. But, man, I don't.........

this is one of the crazier B1G regular seasons that I can remember

 

[Franisdaman]

3 huge games today. IF:

* RU beats MD at home;
* MSU gets revenge at PSU
* Iowa beats PU at home

Then these are the standings & an Iowa win at Illinois clinches a Top 4 seed for Iowa in BTT.
