You predicted Iowa would win out a little while ago. The only way they win out if they play like they did tonight is if they face Minn or Rutgers every single night. WTF is going on?

I still think they win out honestly. Schedule is real friendly. That said the bench Plat tge last 2 has atunk. Starters played fine the last 2 overall but you need more than 5 or 6 points off the bench

I'm starting to think Iowa plays to the level of their competition.

Eh I wouldn't agree. Iowa has blown pretty much everyone out this year. I think only 4 of the 13 B10 games have been single digit games. That said tonight should light a fire if the loss to IU didn't

WTF??? I didn't even watch but I was checking gamecast randomly and kept seeing misses at the three. I can't believe those were wide open. People at the YMCA make that all day. I'm sorry you have to put up with that crap.

Yeah he missed like 4 wide open threes in the first half, then when the Gophers were down 4 with like 1:40 left he missed a WIDE open three. Worst part was he short armed it, so he essentially choked, and wasn't ready for the moment. He sucks anyway, he's a mid major talent playing for the Gophers, which is the case with 75% of the roster.

#14 Minnesota vs. #11 Penn State - 5:00(BTN)

Second Round - March 10th, 2016:
#9 Nebraska vs. #8 Ohio State - 12:00(BTN)
#13 Rutgers/#12 Illinois vs. #5 Wisconsin - 2:30(BTN)
#10 Northwestern vs. #7 Michigan State - 6:30(ESPN2)
#14 Minnesota/#11 Penn State vs. #6 Purdue - 9:00(ESPN2)

Quarterfinals - March 11th, 2016:
#9 Nebraska/#8 Ohio State vs. #1 Iowa - 12:00(ESPN)
#13 Rutgers/#12 Illinois/#5 Wisconsin vs. #4 Michigan - 2:30(ESPN)

Maryland suspends Stone for next game

Wisconsin starting to peak at the right time.

Unlike Oregon

Link?

I thought he deserved to be ejected and a 2 game suspension. Was this enforced by the NCAA or did Maryland play daddy and punish him themselves?

Maryland did and B1G agreed with it

Thanks, still don't think that's enough. Plus their next game is basically a bye vs Minnesota.

What's up with the dumbass camera angles in the UM-TOSU game? Can't see shit.

Somebody needs to be fired.

I feel like whoever loses this game is out for sure.

The cameramen for this game are from ann arbor.

They said the low angles are to showcase the speed. It's hard when you can't see nothing.

Yeah no doubt about that.

Well it looks like Michigan is out and despite a nice win here for OSU I believe the loss vs UW sealed their fate as well for the NIT.

Mich will only be favored vs Northwestern from here on out so would need at least 2 upsets to make it.
OSU would probably have to go 2-2 and be on the bubble and 3-1 to be a lock.
UW is now 4th in the BIG and will have to go 3-3 to make it.

Potentially all could miss or all could make it to the Tourney.

 

[fishinabarrel]

Great to see Ohio State get a win over Michigan. That camera angle tho...and the announced trying to pawn it off like it was so great. ESPN needs to take that idea and toss it right in the dumpster along with a grenade.

 

[rmilia1]

Iowa is going to lose to Penn St tonight. Playing bored again. Can't do that on the road. Hopefully this team can find their fire again. Pretty pathetic

 

[dcZONAfan]

This is ugly. Rmilia I'm starting to think that I'm to Iowa as you are to....Maryland, I think it is. They play like shit every time I watch them
