Based on Indiana's loss I went ahead and moved them down into tier-5.  The updated tiers are:
  • MSU, M
  • BLANK
  • PU, UMD, UNL
  • UW, IA
  • IU, tOSU
  • NU, MN, PSU
  • IL, RU

All teams except Nebraska and Minnesota are within +/-1 on upsets.  Nebraska is at -2 but the problem is that both of their upset losses would be upsets even if we dropped them a tier.  Minnesota is at +2 and similarly, even if we elevated them a tier the two upset wins would still be upsets.  

Wisconsin is a bit of an oddity with two positive and two negative upsets.  I guess they are just an inconsistent team?  The two positive upsets are a win in Iowa City and a win over Michigan.  The two negative upsets are home losses to Minnesota and Purdue.  
Recommend there no longer be a blank. Also recommend putting UNL and UMD on alert.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

Could be that the young kids are just hitting a wall??


How many people showed up to MSG today?
If you're talking about Maryland, I'd say no. 
Cowan and Fernando are the major players and they are still producing. Jalen Smith had the first 7 points and many rebounds. Made a 3 as well. 
Now, Ayala looked lost today.
Morris and he had so many turnovers today it was maddening. Morris isn't known for his offense though.
Illinois' bench was apparently better than Maryland's.

Ugh, Ahrens back out after tweaking his back going for a loose ball at Iowa.  Langford still out.

Oh well, I would have signed up for a 2-1 week in a heartbeat

Oh well, thanks Delany.  Week off after this is clearly much needed.

Time for trial by fire with Loyer and Kithier.  The other guys are totally gassed.  AbsoliAbso no shooting legs.  At least 4 threes missed with nobody within 5 feet of them.  They aren't winning this game.  Get them some rest, get the freshmen some experience.
