Archie might be in trouble.  Not after this year, but he loses Langford and Morgan, and only has one impact freshman (who likely isn't as good as Langford) coming in.  So it's tough to see them being anything but worse next year.  So that's three years without a tourney, and it's not like the program was anywhere near the mess Sampson left Crean.

PSU was looking feisty, then Purdue reasserted and now PSU isn’t making it easy.

Pitino finally acknowledged how to make up for their PG deficiencies. Took advantage of the front court with high low sets and kick outs to Kalshauer, the one consistent shooter on the team.

Well, they won, but as I've said, playing at the RAC is no joke.

I don't think so. They've needed late game heroics to win the last three vs. against teams in the bottom half of the league. If they look competent against Maryland, I'll give them a pass, but I'm not expecting much.

It's weird with MSU.  The other top teams, Purdue, Michigan, Maryland and Wisconsin, I have substantially more confidence in them in home games.  MSU, I'm not sure location matters.  They seem to be easily the best road team of that top group, but with the worst home court advantage of them.

I'll take MSU today over the Buckeyes, but OSU to cover the 11.5

It appears all the missed bunnies in Madison is not a one game issue

Some calls are hard.  When a guy comes flying through and smashes the ball out of bounds, it shouldn't be

These teams playing very similar styles, made for a fun half after all the bricks to open the game
