perhaps the coach deserves another season

Wisconsin: Highly intent on displaying most of the behavior that matches the dissonance in their computer rankings, but not the main one, which is losing.

Well, I figured Nebraska was not good enough (or UW was not bad enough) to make me pay for posting before the game was over. 

About that ...

If you changed Julius Marble's hair to a receding hairline, he could pass for 45

I have this game on and there's no reason to, but I'm on the couch and half want to take a nap, half need to get in a run.

Tyson Walker has to be the best shooter who hates hooting MSU has ever had

A lot at stake in Champaign and not just for the Hawkeyes and Illini.

If Illinois wins:

• Illinois gets a share of the league title and not just a share, they own the tiebreaker so they are The Champion and #1 seed in Indianapolis.
• Wisconsin drops to co-champions and #2 seed.
• Purdue falls to #3 seed.
• Iowa falls into a tie with RU and tOSU for 4th/5th/6th. They get the #5 seed.
• Rutgers gets the #4 seed and double bye.

If Iowa wins:

• Wisconsin is outright Champion.
• Illinois falls into a tie with PU for 2/3, loses the tie, and gets the #3 seed.
• Purdue gets the #2 seed.
• Iowa gets the #4 seed.
• Rutgers gets the #5 seed and has to play on Thursday.

Short version, BTT seeds if Illinois/Iowa wins:

• Illinois/Wisconsin
• Wisconsin/Purdue
• Purdue/Illinois
• Rutgers/Iowa
• Iowa/Rutgers

Interesting that the top five seeds are all determined by this game.

The rest of the BTT seeds:

• #6 Ohio State
• #7 Michigan State 
• #8 Michigan 
• #9 Indiana
• #10 Maryland 
• #11 Penn State
• #12 Northwestern 
• #13 Minnesota if they beat Northwestern, Nebraska if the Wildcats win 
• #14 Minnesota if they lose to Northwestern, Nebraska is the Gophers win

Feels like we play Maryland every year

Is that really the issue? This team has a bunch of guys probably at the level of that MAC senior.

But they don't have the 1-2 special guys, who can elevate in that big moment. Maybe MAC senior could do that, but not so likely.

Just seeing this now.  Perimeter and wings, agreed.  But I think we could have used a couple of interior guys who could defend and rebound.  Bingham, Hall and Christie had no legs left in March because they were asked to overextend themselves doing things you best offensive guard, wing and post shouldn't be asked to shoulder exclusively.

Thank you, Nebraska.  I have wanted to see this for a quite a long time.

My bosses will be more happy that I won't be intently watching until after work on Friday.

WTF?? 

I was out all day on the boat and I just see something not possible?
