One possession game in West Lafayette coming up on the U8 timeout.

Congratulations to the 2024 B1G Champion Purdue Boilermakers.

Wisconsin just plain sucks right now. Just forfeit the next two and bail. I've seen enough.

Blackwell, Storr and Essegian should transfer. Crowl told to be done. Start over.

I’ve always find this phrasing odd. 

But I look forward to discussing the offseason with you in a few weeks. If you gotta unplug for the rest the season, I support that.

I won't be watching them from here on out.

We were on the boat yesterday and the place we stopped to eat had them on.

They were up by 9. My wife they looked good. 

I told her that Illinois had them right where they wanted.

Today's games:
Indiana +9 at Maryland, 2pm CBS:
At 15-13 and 15-14 respectively both of these teams may already be out of the running for an at-large bid but if they aren't this is a must-win game.

• NET: 70 UMD, 104 IU
• KenPom: 50 UMD, 99 IU

Michigan +11 at Ohio State, 4pm CBS:
Michigan is obviously out and Ohio State will be if they lose today. The Buckeyes are 60 in NET and 56 in KenPom and cannot afford a loss here.

Rutgers +8 at Nebraska, 630pm BTN:
For Rutgers this is a must win (and they might need to win the BTT regardless) and this game is important for Nebraska for seeding and also to secure a double bye.

• NET: 43 UNL, 90 RU
• KenPom: 36 UNL, 90

Also Ohio State's women's team visits Iowa City to take on the Hawkeyes and their star Caitlin Clark at 1 on Fox. Clark will likely set the all-time NCAA scoring record.

golf course will be empty with Caitlin Clark show on TV at 1

and the 25mph breeze gusting to 35

[MarqHusker]

Courses packed here yesterday and again today.

[FearlessF]

I played 27 yesterday, in the wind
should stay home today

[betarhoalphadelta]

Heading to the course shortly. Should be scattered showers, but nothing heavy enough to not be out there.

To the surprise of probably no one, Caitlin Clark and her Iowa Hawkeyes got a win in their last scheduled home game so The Buckeyes "only" won the league by a single game, 16-2 to 15-3 for the Hawkeyes (and Hoosiers if they win later).

In the interest of full disclosure all three teams did basically the same thing. They each won the home games and lost the road games amongst each other and each of them won the rest of their games with the exception of one random road loss each. The difference in the final standings being that tOSU did not visit Bloomington.

Howard waited WAY too long to call time and Ohio State opened the second half on an 8-0 run to stretch the lead to 13 at 40-27.

Ohio State up 23 at the U4.

Is Howard going to surrive the season?

Is Howard going to surrive the season?

They are so bad. They also don't seem likely to be much better next season. Was listening to MGoBlog on it, Warde Manuel never makes decisions.
