Mine, but in my defense I didn't think that they'd actually do it.

It was a throwback to the 2020 fanless COVID season.  I also don't get the point. Nobody is traveling to a neutral site. Women's soccer tournament. Every big 10 tournament aside from football and basketball, should just be played at the home site of the regular season champion

#12 MSU gymnastics upset #7 Michigan for the first time in 16 years.

They nearly knocked off #7 Alabama on the road, before winning at NC State, prior to that.

This coming off the programs best finish in a generation.  What head coach Mike Rowe has been able to do, digging this program out of what has to be in the running for the largest scandal in college sports is amazing.  A team doctor and trainer sexually abusing dozens of athletes, and the head coach actively covering for them for years.

WBB AP Rankings heading into the selection show:

#2 Iowa
#3 Indiana
#6 Maryland
#12 Ohio State

We were at the UIHC for a medical procedure today. I took this photo from the top of the parking ramp of the back of the Kinnick Stadium north scoreboard. The mystic appearance is from the funnels next to the ramp that produce warm moist air and fog everything up. But there is little mystery behind the Hawkeyes WBB team this season.

Husker Indoor Track & Field - NCAAs

The women finish 14th with 17 points. The best indoor finish since 2006.

The men finish 8th with 24.75 points. The best indoor finish since 2009.

The Husker men won their first Big Ten outdoor title since 2016 with 151 points, their most at a conference meet since 2004. Minnesota was second with 122 points, and Iowa was third with 120 points. It's the 30th all-time conference outdoor title for the Husker men and their 68th conference title overall. It also marks their first conference championship under first-year head coach Justin St. Clair.

The Nebraska women finished third with 112 points, which was their most points ever at a Big Ten meet. It was also their best Big Ten outdoor finish since placing third in 2016. Nebraska was just behind Michigan (139) and Ohio State (123).
