Mich's schedule seems too tough at the end. Too many games on the road where they suck.

I think Michigan will be fine if you guys finish 2-2, which I think is the worst you'll go. Could just as easily go 4-0 in the last 4 as well. Finish 3-1 and you're a lock IMO. While the games are on the road, they're all winnable.

lol. Yeah, I'm the ever pessimist when it comes to the Gophers. Let's hope it doesn't come to that. I just want one win and I'll feel much better.

Honestly I'm more focused on trying to get a 6 seed at this point

Get a big road win here

Richard deserves Coach of the Year consideration for the turnaround the Goofs have gone through this season. 8 wins last season to 20 this season with 4 regular season games left. Collins deserves a lot of credit at Northwestern if he finally gets them into the Dance. There are other good candidates around the country too.

I'd say at this point we're either a 6 or 7 seed. One interesting thing I'll be looking forward to is how they seed the B1G teams and teams like Cincy, SMU and St. Mary's. St. Mary's and Cincy have combined to play just one more top 100 team as an example.

Getting Northwestern to Tourney for first time in school history should lock COY down

Pitino has done a good job

Nebraska with 6 wins and a head scratching loss to Rutgers and a lass second loss to OSU. If healthy, I'm hoping this team can make some noise in the BIG tourney

but winning the last game of the 3 against a top 25 opponent shouldn't mean that hey lose ground

no??


I'm honestly not surprised and confused why anyone would be, you can't lose two games vs unranked teams and think you won't drop unless those close also lost


Badgers best wins are Maryland and Minnesota

who's bitching

I just find it odd, that's all

What is odd is that you are the only fan in America who does not realize that the rankings are only updated weekly and what that means.

I'm really bummed. Losing at Wisconsin has no shame although they were very beatable that night. What sucks is Maryland lost one of their centers, the most effective one, for the season with a broken ankle. It's not that he was great or anything but it's a weak position and now the guy who will get increased minutes is terrible, he easily set an NCAA record for missed layups per minutes played.
