Triple overtime coming for Nebraska

Triple overtime coming for Nebraska

NC State's entire team has fouled out

Quadruple overtime on the way.

I think having to watch 20 minutes (and counting) of extra basketball, angers Nebraska fans more than losing 9 one possession football games.

Can this game go past the late games? Already second half for those

No.

Michigan is an absolute train wreck right now.  Honestly, grabbing the one and dones feels like a mistake.  Duke won a title with them.  Kentucky did it when they had a few return for their sophomore year.  But Washington, LSU, Oklahoma, Georgia, it hasn't worked.  Michigan is a cobbled together roster of one and dones, other freshmen, transfers, Eli Brooks and Hunter Dickinson

Stayed up watching an entertaining Nebraska game. Now watching Michigan get stuffed in a trash can by North Carolina

Tonight was an absolute embarrassment for the Big Ten, aside from MSU.

Even if UW pulls this out, and we win 8-6, that's a disaster

It's almost like the farther we get from the greatest coach in program history, and move more towards a roster entirely built by a star chasing coach with no previous experience, the less it works

Looking good.

Up 6-2 and five of the six B1G teams playing tonight are favored.

Yikes, apparently I spoke too soon, what a disaster tonight has been.  I concur with @ELA :

Not to knock MSU but their win wasn't unexpected.  Coming into tonight we had:

• MSU -4, won by 9:  overperformed by 5
• UNL +7, lost by 4 in 4xOT:  overperformed by 3
• UW -3, won by 4:  overperformed by 1
• UMD -0.5, lost by 4:  underperformed by 4.5
• PSU -3, lost by 5:  underperformed by 8
• M -2.5, lost by 21:  underperformed by 23.5

Michigan State was by far the bright spot but that is a pretty low bar.  Michigan was a flat out embarrassment with Penn State not far behind.  Maryland just annoys me.  They were phenomenal in this thing when they were in the ACC and they've sucked as part of the B1G.  They are now .500 at 11-11 in challenge games but that is made up of 10-5 as an ACC team and 1-6 as a B1G team.  Wisconsin, Nebraska, and Michigan State performed approximately as expected but to come into tonight up 6-2 and slink out with an 8-6 win is just terrible.

How was Wisconsin only favored by 3?

I don't know but that is what my phone says.

For context, that Oregon State team was ranked #2 in the nation.

Also, either he has a typo or bad math here, bc this is the second lowest
