Tight finish in West Lafayette, but the Boilers edge the Terps 73-70.

Wow.  One of the greatest Gophers games I've ever seen.

Buckeyes take on Northwestern today, in a game I thought would be a little more comfortable than it's looking right now

That's a lot of years. 

UW projected at 12-6 the rest of the way, as a top-5 team in KenPom, with four top-20 games on the slate. Four other top-21 teams. Projections have all but three teams between 12-8 and 8-12.

Difference this year is the lack of non conference games to prove it.  Wisconsin making that game up with Louisville is huge.  Otherwise what do they have, a loss to Marquette?  Michigan looks good, but when NC State cancelled, they had to play Toledo, so they've played nobody.  If MSU had their typical Duke loss, I'd be nervous now.

Tight, stupid loss to Marquette.

MSU is hit hard in the numerical stuff, but I think they'll be feisty when all said and done. They could be quite good and be battling for fourth this year.

Some sloppy play by the Bucks in the first half, saved by Seth Towns hitting three threes.

It's tourney quality but what's the cutoff line in the B1G? 10? 11? 12?
