Northwestern scored two more points than Indiana and seven more points than Michigan today but unfortunately for the Wildcats they were not playing the Hoosiers or the Wolverines and they got outscored by 36 points. 

I'm pretty sure Wisconsin once won a BTT game while only scoring about 36 points. 
That was a loss, to Penn State, if memory serves.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

Witness to big ten refs in Person.
.. wow.

There is no such thing. MBB refs are not affiliated by conference anymore.

Oh, I thought the winner was under 40 but I'm not sure.

I wonder if this is the worst session to get tickets to in Big Ten tournament history. You have two teams who generally make the tournament, who are in, but are not going to win the tournament, and I'm guessing their fans have not traveled well, against two teams who have to win the tournament to get in.  Everything about this game has convinced me that best case scenario is we lose to Wisconsin tomorrow

At least the refs are letting them play.  Maryland in the single bonus, MSU not even there, with under 30 seconds left.  Way to recognize nobody wants to be here.

I hadn't thought through that this applied to MSU/UMD as well. So true for both games. I can't imagine any tOSU or MSU fans being excited about this kinda meh season and as you pointed out both teams are in even if they lose tonight so it isn't like you have the excitement of being on the bubble and needing a win or two to get in.

Fans like you and I realize that a few wins keeps them away from the difficult 7/10 and VERY difficult 8/9 lines but that is too nuanced for most fans. 

Then Maryland and Penn State fans have nothing to be excited about because their only path to the big dance is to win today . . . and Friday . . . and Saturday  . . . and Sunday which is basically hopeless.

Didn't think much of them not calling that intentional foul when MSU was up 14.  But MSU didn't score off it, and Maryland scored the next 5.

Purdue has 6 losses this year. 5 of the 6 are road losses... 

I saw at H&R what happened to every single one of teams after beating Purdue at home...


Quote
Lose at Rutgers, who then loses at Seton Hall (63-77)
Lose at IU, who then loses to Michigan (80-62)
Lose bad at Michigan, who then loses to OSU (68-57)
Lose at MSU, who then loses at Michigan (70-87)
Lose at Wisconsin, who then loses to Nebraska (74-73)

Seems like these teams gave Purdue their best shot--and left nothing in the tank...

The sooner I don't have to watch this MSU team, the better

Also, Purdue plays less defense than anyone else sans Nebraska, in the Big Ten

So who and why is this #1 on Michigan so hated?  I did see his douchy 3pt taunt and getting Td up for demanding an 'and 1' call.  Is he known for other stuff?  He seemed to get booed more than Juwan at the game today.

Keep in mind I haven't watched much of college hoops all year.
Even as an M fan, I think he’s sort of douchey. Some guys just give off that vibe.  I also think he runs his mouth but often doesn’t show up in key moments.
