4 more wins and selection Sunday will be interesting


Can’t imagine that happening with schedule we have left. If we win more than 1 or 2 I will be surprised

Got the big 10 touney too. I think 3-2 finish ( which will be tough ) and then a win in the tourney may get it done . Schedule is brutal though

Purdue has to be the heavy favorite to win the league now given the schedules . Going to be really interesting to see how the other 3 double byes play out though . You'd think MSU and Michigan will get 2 of them given they've only lost 3 times so that leaves 1 for Maryland , Wisky and Iowa. What says the board? Who gets the last double bye ?

I'd lean Wisconsin. I think they have the easiest schedule down the stretch, get Iowa at home, if they beat them, they have the sweep, so if they are tied in the standings, Wisconsin would have the tiebreaker. The interesting scenario would be if it's a 3 way tie. If that's the case and Purdue does when the league as expected, MD would get the double bye, at least I think so.

Edit* Take that back 3 way tie, Wisconsin probably get that's too.

That's how I'd lean too . I think it ends up

1. Purdue
2. Michigan
3. MSU
4. Wisconsin
5. Iowa
6. Maryland

I'd probably agree. I think we'll know for sure after Iowa vs. MD. The loser of that game is all but eliminated from getting to the top 4 IMO, unless crazy shit happens.

I think Maryland could still lose 2-3 even if they beat Iowa ( with their schedule ) but I'd tend to agree

I'd be surprised if they beat Iowa and then lose 2 out of vs. Ohio State, @ Penn State, vs. Michigan, vs. Minnesota. I think they'd probably go undefeated before they lost 2 games. Probably a 3-1 stretch though IMO.

Try posting on the the CBB now and tell me if it works

Nah still banned.

When you're banned you only see your threads you started

It's cool if they can't do anything or if they'd like to speak to me first but they need to send me a convo because I can't start one
