Yeah Sparty has been a real problem for us. They taught me that March Madness buzzer beaters are great fun, until someone drops one on your team. It was a battle, playing Izzo in March always is, but a big win for Maryland. Announcers seemed convinced MSU is in too but I'm not so sure. Weak bubble appears to be their only chance.

I think so too, but I don't want to tempt fate with only 19 wins and coming off three straight losses to NW, Nebraska, and say Illinois.


Nebraska seems like they completely given up last few games. They've gotten destroyed my Michigan State, Illinois and Minnesota. Michigan should win


If Michigan wins especially in a blowout, Miles should be done

Too bad Iowa wasn't playing half this well during the 1st 20 games of the year. Hawks are rolling.

There is something about UW's ownership of Minnesota that is like a Snickers bar...satisfying...very satisfying... and the Gopher fans posting about it makes it that much better...

Mo Wagner is returning to Michigan. Justin Jackson returning to Maryland. Big new for the Big 10.

Still waiting for DJ Wilson. If he returns Michigan should be a top 20 team next season, if not better.

Should be another interesting year for the BIG. Will we have another surprise like Northwestern? Will the Badgers miss their first NCAA tournament in almost 2 decades since they lost their entire starting team with the exception of Happ? Who is the BIG POY fav this season?

I expected Purdue to win the BIG last season and they did. Now it should go to MSU for sure.

I can't speak for the rest of the B1G, the more I think about it the more cautiously optimistic I am about Ohio State.

There is definitely some addition by subtraction and I think Holtmann brings the right attitude that this team needs.

Talent right now isn't elite but it isn't scrubs either, Jae'Sean Tate is as good as a senior leader that you could ask for. I'm still setting the bar low (NIT would make me happy, thats how bad it's got) but I say we will definitely see a lot more competitiveness from this group then we have the past few years.
