Well crap. IU doesn’t play Minnesota again.
as a fan could you even spend time watching that game?  

I love big ten basketball but we have not put together a big ten team in years

i am bored with them and until they fire the coach and start all over they will proudly be anchoring the bottom of the league

The coach is pretty good.  The NIL commitment is apparently embarrassing

I don't know if this is (still) true, but my younger brother (and Gophers alum) used to talk about how a not insignificant percentage of U of Minnesota leadership held athletics in total disdain.

Apparently they have the lowest Big Ten NIL commitment in hockey.  If they arent paying for hockey, how do basketball and football stand a chance?

I'd guess Hoosier basketball fans would agree with me

swap basketball and Football wins

I doubt they'd give up their CFP appearance for one basketball win when they want their coach gone anyway

Hoosier Hoops - I'll trade the recent 4 game losing streak to UNL for the Huskers 2 losses in football

Pretty good Saturday of games.

4 games between teams that would probably be top 4-5 seeds right now

Memphis-Clemson at 11am
Purdue-Texas A&M at noon
Illinois-Tennessee at 5
Gonzaga-UConn at 8

Then nothing to say of Auburn-OSU, Wsiconsin-Tulsa, Kansas-NC State, UCLA-Zona, Florida-ASU, Louisville-Kentucky, Marquette-Dayton, Bedlam, Bama-Creighton
