A squad of voluntary celibates from Provo is absolutely moon pounding #14 Oregon in Portland.

They are 3-0. Big game versus UIC tomorrow. Bruce Weber couldn't beat them. Maybe Moser's replacement can.

#4 Michigan getting taken apart by Zona.
We get Zona at home on Dec. 11th.

Michigan played like statues. Tain't that a shame!

Michigan struggling mightily against something called Tarleton State.
Only up 4 with over 5 minutes left.

1-4 Tarleton State.

Michigan holds off the powerhouse Tarleton State Texans
-
Big Ten rebounded a bit here in the last few days. But only because Wisconsin, Purdue, & Ohio St are the only teams notching any quality wins right now.
-
Nasty nasty finish to the Ohio st Florida game.
-
Cincy loses at home to Monmouth. The beat down they gave us looks even worse now.
-
Yikes. I wish we had that Saunders kid on our team though.
-
not sure how good Maryland is
-
Purdue is by far the best team in the Big 10.
The 2nd best team is Indiana. Woodson is going to get COY if Painter doesn't get it. They look a million times better than last year.
-
Purdue is clearly the best team. But they’re the same team as last year. That makes a huge difference in the early going. Indiana also returned a lot.

Bohannon, 24 years old, in his 6th year of college, torching Virginia.
If NCAA is going to let this guy play, they should go all out with no restrictions. Let guys return to college after being pros, unlimited eligibility as long as you are enrolled taking a full course load. May even encourage players to get their degree and be better citizens.
It’s be awesome to get Meyers Leonard back on the team and see him dominate

NW to overtime. Big Ten will be looking really good if they pull this off. Maybe Liddell can take down Duke somehow too.
-
Boy the athleticism and length of Duke just shows how far the B1G is behind the curve. Herculean effort by OSU just to keep this a game.
-
LOL NW. Same old. Boo Buie choking down the stretch missed a few bunnies.
-
What do you have to say about it?
Less than others probably.
-
Oh wow, I watched a good part of the first half but skipped the second and saw Ohio State came back to win. Wish I’d kept it on longer.
-
Never cheered so hard for OSU in my life. Great game.

They must have played a hell of a last 10 minutes. Last time I looked they were down 11 and maybe whittled it to 7 or so.

Yep. Fuck duke.

They did. Locked down on D and attacked the Duke on every possession. Ball movement exposed Duke D. Made shots. They did get away with one giant homer call.

Ratface goes out with a two game losing streak in the challenge. Cancel some more games, ya fucking crybaby.

I root for whoever is playing Duke and Alabama, even if it is Notre Dame. Very therapeutic. Since it was my Buckeyes beating Duke, it was a bonus.

Congrats on the big win. Probably soothes the UM loss a bit.

I didn't even know Alonzo Verge transferred to Nebby. I think we were in on him at one point but he ended up at Arizona St.

Going to go out on a limb here. Michigan looks terrible fundamentally. If this is the way they're coached then they can recruit all the studs they can get but won't end up in a title game under Howard.

Someone may want to check to see if Maryland is still representing the ACC in the challenge.
10-5 as a member of the ACC
1-7 as a member of the B1G

Anybody watching the Wiscy game? Dude walking to his seat with a beer got laid out by a player diving for a ball.

As much as it pains me to say, Michigan was the better team last Saturday. Law of averages was working overtime in their favor, too. There will be changes on the coaching staff after the defense was MIA the past few seasons.
At least Ohio State beat #1 Duke. So it will be another week before some fans renew their calling for Holtmann to be replaced.

Early season resignation is definitely odd. You normally see this near end of conference season in a disaster year.
-
Good thing since Turgeon always seemed to have our number
-
Md gave Turgeon a 3 year extension 8 months ago. They will honor the $5 million buyout in the extension.
-
UTRGV only down 5 at the half to Texas
-
Iowa putting up a fight after being down near 20. Still double digits, but both these teams will be a challenge for us this season. One I look fwd to.
-
Iowa really fighting back against Purdue. Down to 5
-
Damn, down to 2.
-
That was wild. I’ve never seen a Fran team play defense like that. If Iowa throws that press at us we might have 40 turnovers. I know what Painter is going to be working on in practice next week.

Fran and defense do not usually go in same sentence together. LOL.
If the other Murray kid is back, it will be very tough game.
They can score in bunches and are pretty long and mobile.
I have tix for that one.

Yeah after watching them shut Purdue down last night I’m not super optimistic about this one.

Ugly ass basketball tonight.
Texas Tech beats #13 Tennessee 57-52..in OT. It was tied at 44 after regulation.
James Madison beats Virginia 52-49. I know Bennetball works but boy is it still painful to watch.

Good for him.

Good for Te'Jon. Started all 8 games going into tonight with 12 points, 5 assists and 2 turnovers per game. 18 points vs Utah, 12 vs Oregon and 13 vs San Diego State.
He worked on defense when he was here.

That was a long 3.4 seconds.

Oh shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess we're in first place in the B1G.

Damn that was crazy. Will be a season long highlight in the big ten.

Rutgers scores too quick. Purdont scores too quick.
Harper says 'Thanks guys. If you don't mind ...'

Hummel said it right. One of the best 30 seconds to finish a game you’ll ever see.

His dad was unbelievable before he was surrendered (exiled) to the Clippers and then tore his ACL. Junior doesn't quite have the leaping ability or highlight reel moves of his dad but he's a lot stronger and a better outside shooter.

All of the penalties apply to Auburn, except Pearl gets his 2nd show cause and a 2 game suspension. Kofi got 3 games.

Barnes is neither under or over-rated....hence the word steward applies well here. He wins games, maintains academics, maintains decent out of trouble programs. He does not win NC games, he usually doesn't go very far in tournaments...thus stewardship is applicable, mediocrity is a far cry for Barnes however.

I had a thought that they'd try to get one of those blocking calls on the inbounds (running somebody into a pick), and they did try that, but Rutgers was ready for it. They still got a good look at the basket though, for 2.0 seconds.

I think it was Courtney Green with the call. Same ref with the call in the Wisco-NU game to make both teams winners at home.

tough loss for Rutgers losing @ Minn
I just looked at the box.
3 gofers play 40 minutes and 2 play 37. Payton Willis goes for 32 on 8-13 from 3. And still gets 7 assists.
Geo Baker gets 25 on 7-14 from 3.
Harper held in check with 12 points on 5-11 and 4 rebounds.
Good for the gofs. Not good for Rutgers.

Minny had 3 starters out. Only 7 scholarship players.
You adjust at this level.

Both of those teams pretty much foul every play.

Most BT refs are inconsistent.
Actually most refs in all sports are inconsistent.

Same with baseball on balls and strikes.
Same with football and what is allowed or called on pass interference or holding.
Same with soccer on every play with contact at every level.
New rules every game as to what is called and allowed and a huge variance.
But has always been kind of the case.

No Illini fan should ever bitch about fouls given that Kofi is rarely ever in foul trouble. He's one of the most protected players in college basketball. You cant tell me a big like that, who bangs constantly when he gets the ball, hardly ever commits any actual fouls.
-
There isn’t another player in college basketball that gets fouled more than Kofi. He gets the shit beat out of him every night. Even the announcers talk about how they can hear him being slapped and hacked in packed loud arenas and they aren’t being called. And he has pretty much always played super disciplined defense. He isn’t being protected, he just makes remarkably few silly fouls. He moves his feet, walls up, and stays vertical. One of the best things he does is realize when he’s beat. Most big guys try to come from behind and make a play on the ball and it’s usually called a foul. He very rarely does that. The couple of lapses he had against Purdue really called attention to the fact that it’s so rare for him to get in foul trouble.

Kofi really got frustrated early in the Purdue game and let his emotions get the best of him. That’s been exceedingly rare in his career here. Remember a couple years ago TJD dunked on him and he used that for motivation? I suspect he’ll come out with a chip on his shoulder Tuesday night. Purdue will surely get some home cooking so he’ll have to temper his emotions but I expect he’ll have a lot better game than he did in Champaign.

Kofi played 35 minutes at Indiana and had 1 foul called on him the whole game.
I’ve seen many times that Kofi is over the back on rebounds, or just bangs into a guy dribbling when he posts up, and is never called for foul. He may not commit many dumb fouls on defense but on offense the refs let him do whatever he wants. Illini fans have complained for years about Sean May bulldozing Augustine in the title game and Kofi does that routinely.
Given the history of Illini bigs always in foul trouble i find it crazy that one of the biggest in history and the most physical has one of the lowest foul rates per minute of anyone.
-
part of that though is from his lack of perimeter defense.

There have been a handful of times this year where I thought Kofi might get called for lowering his shoulder and wasn’t and then there have been a few times he has… But it’s not that frequent that he obviously fouls on offense. Someone is obviously upset the Illini put it on his Hosiers in Bloomington.
-
Kofi's footwork and overall development have made him a much more accomplished post player. He doesn't do near as much ill-advised fouling as in the past. His lack of fouling is due to maturity, development, and quite frankly, the refs getting used to the anomaly that he is. That said, he's still on the receiving end of more non-calls than ones he may get away with.

Purdue looked tired tonight. Big game Tuesday night then a road trip to Ann Arbor for a Thursday game. Michigan was absolutely unconscious down the stretch.
As much as I hate to say it, Dickinson’s developing outside game, relative quickness, footwork etc. gives Michigan a better matchup with Purdue’s bigs than Kofi gives us. I didn’t buy all the hype last season, but he’s been playing really well. And he’s probably going to give Kofi fits when we play them up there.
I really wish the light bulb would go on for Hawkins. The guy has the tools to be a solid defender but he just doesn’t seem to get it. He did a great job on RHJ back in December and has pretty much been MIA ever since. The experiment with him trying to guard quick slashers has been an abysmal failure and is a foul waiting to happen.
His failure to make the sophomore leap many expected based on his workouts and practice play is probably the biggest thing holding this team back right now. He really seems to have trouble keeping his composure and playing disciplined ball when the bright lights are on.
Also agree it probably isn’t going to be a great year for the B1G in the tourney again. The best two teams in the league, who run through their bigs, both struggle with athletic mobile bigs that can pass and shoot. Despite flaming out against ORU last year, Ohio State might have the best chance of a deep run. Illinois and Purdue really need to get good matchups imo. Wisconsin could give some teams fits if Davis stays hot but they just don’t have enough other pieces around him to go deep unless they get a cakewalk. Actually if Michigan is turning the corner they could be a tough out but they’ll probably get a rough go of it due to where they’ll likely be seeded if they even get in.
Other conferences have evolved toward pro style lineups while the B1G is clinging to lumbering behemoths. It’s no surprise Iowa, IL, Purdue, etc all got ran out of the tourney early by quick, feisty teams with non-traditional bigs. None of the teams in the Final Four featured traditional big men. The closest thing to a traditional big in the round of eight was probably Dickinson.
Kofi immediately raised our floor and our ceiling. He’s a once in a lifetime big for us. Yet in a way he also created our ceiling because we are so dependent on what he gives us, but he’s so one-dimensional on both ends of the floor. Now, that’s true for a lot of really good basketball players and their respective programs, but having him here as a showcase makes it really hard to get other quality bigs to join the program knowing he’s going to get the tick if he comes back. And it’s hard to get an elite stretch 4 to join him unless they know he’s staying. So we’ve never gotten a high quality backup and then when he’s out or has a bad matchup the drop off is enormous. Take the Loyola game, for example: We couldn’t afford to sit him and we couldn’t afford to play him.
There was a lot of smoke that Liddell was interested in playing alongside Kofi after last season because he was tired of playing the 5 at OSU and playing with Kofi would help him showcase his developing perimeter game. It would have been a match made in heaven, but Kofi stayed in the draft til the 11th hour, and effectively killed any chance of Liddell or any other big name 4 or 5 from transferring here.
The Liddell talk may all have been BS and of course no one can blame Kofi for doing what he did, but it’s a little frustrating nonetheless. I hope this off-season we aren’t hamstrung by Kofi’s decision making process. Hopefully we can come up with enough NIL money to get him to come back another year, he announces it early, and the staff can go to work selling high quality transfer stretch 4s to come feast alongside a super star 5 and a stud PG. If he is for sure gone, you have time to go get an impact guy to replace him and keep the program rolling. Of course, it sure didn’t help we lost our primary recruiters to Kentucky and it took precious months to backfill after last season.
I know people are tired of me saying it, but even if we take some lumps in league play by teams with traditional bigs I really want to see the program move towards more modern construction. If you look at most of the teams that are considered national title contenders, there are few that are overly reliant on traditional bigs.
Oscar Tshiebwe is a traditional big but their offense doesn’t run through him. He’s more of a rim protector, putback guy, and rebounder like a premium version of Vital at Baylor. If you’ve got enough firepower from the guard and wing positions a guy like that is perfect. I was kinda hoping Payne would be our version of Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua, but sadly the similarities end at physical appearance.
-
Geez. Several game suspension is warranted.
Insane
-
Kofi is in a lot of mock draft late second rounds.
I would think he would go if he is assured by someone they will take him late.
-
Hawkins doesn't appear to have the foot speed, and compensates with his hands. That's a foul waiting to be called.
And Underwood should have been working on some zone, since day 1, to protect Kofi. Putting Hawkins, with his length, on the perimeter or the top of the key would protect him also. Bring in Melendez, with his length and more quickness than Hawkins, also.
Hawkins and Melendez in a zone is hindsight for me after watching them play this year, but a zone for Kofi is not hindsight.
-
Geez. Several game suspension is warranted.
Looks like they at least did the right thing afterwards. Pretty nasty real-time.

There's no room for that in the game. I applaud Brownell and Collins for going to the guy who used to coach Grayson Allen, but Collins needs a some time off.

What the fuck. Seriously? The dude ran up under him, with no intention of going for the ball, and rocked him while he was in the air.
Not as bad as you were expecting? Jesus Christ. That was absolutely, by all accounts, a terrible foul.
Fuck, man.
-
Yeah, about a bad as you can get really. Way beyond a fight with punches thrown, high elbow, sucker punch, knee to the back, pushing or pulling a guy down,tripping. You know, the usual MSU and Duke shit.
Could have had serious skull fracture or spinal injury.

I would love to knock your pussy ass out of the air, and have you talk about how not flagrant that is. God damn.

Agree it is premature, but if you simply watch Wisconsin play an actual game you would NEVER think they are one of top 8 teams in country.

Go figger.
PSU shoots 55%, and goes 8-15 from 3 for 53%. Wins the boards 34-17 and the gofs can't find one offensive board to haul in.
Gofs have 3 turnovers and PSU has 13, with 2 travels in the last minute or so.
Gofs go 12-13 from the line. PSU goes 4-7 and goes back to Happy Valley with a loss.
Turnovers, fouls and free throws. Things that done us in too often during Underwood's first couple of years.
Eric Curry gets a career high 22. The guy has been thru a ton of injuries and kept coming back to play. Good for him.

I would be really happy if we can close out the year 5-2. 4-3 is probably the safest bet right now. Michigan State , Rutgers, and Michigan will all be really tough matchups and all on the road for that matter. Both Rutgers and Michigan will be playing for their NCAA lives.

They had words in handshake line.

I assume Gard calls a TO to get some kids in who rarely play? He could have called a TO earlier to get those subs in. But Howard tells his team to foul? Come on. Obviously, Howard gets a suspension for striking Krabenhoff in the shake line. He better thank his lucky stars he didn't hit him with a clenched fist. An injury could have lead to a lawsuit. Terrible situation, both sides in the wrong but Fichigan moreso.
-

Didn't see that part not surprised.
Last game as coach? Possibly. Ever see the Woody Hayes incident in 1978? Gone from OSU the next day.
-

That won't be tolerated either. If so, he's done.
-
Howard has no leg to stand on when he was the one employing a full court press down almost 20 with a minute to go against Wisky's reserves.
Assuming his ass some how isn't fired by the time he plays us, he better not try that shit against Brad Underwood and the Pizza Hut Posse.
-
Looks like Diabate may have thrown a couple too.
Michigan has a favored status. It will be a boys will be boys, we apologize. All done.
-
It wasn't an official. It was a Wisconsin assistant coach he hit.
-
Warren needs to suspend him for the remainder of the season. And Michigan can do whatever they want after that.
-
Michigan is in a tough spot here.
On one hand they have a guy that “won” the B1G last year and went to the round of eight. He’s black and an a respected alumnus.
On the other hand, this was pretty bad. And I think this gives a little credence to last year’s “I’ll fucking kill you” interaction with Mark Turgeon that was swiftly swept under the rug.
I won’t feel really bad about anything negative that comes Michigan’s or Juwan’s way as a result of this. But I also wish he is coaching when we play them because Martelli will be a huge step up.
-

#5 is Terrance Williams.
UCLA had the spitting incident at ASU 2 weeks ago. That kid got sent home and haven't heard if Mick Cronin allowed him back on the team.
-
Michigan will be sponsored by Pizza Hut for the next 2 years due to that game alone.
-
Howard should be fired after that. He’s such a little bitch. Too many incidents he’s had so far at Michigan. Kevin Warren SHOULD suspend him for the season for that and Michigan SHOULD fire him tomorrow. Just completely uncalled for.
Being it’s Michigan, I’m expecting a slap on the wrist.
-
I was originally worried about the Michigan game…
Now that Howard and half the team will be suspended im feeling much more confident…
Illinois 80
Michigan 57
-
So they’re saying Diabate was the other one throwing punches..6”11 Freshman averaging roughly 10 pts a game and 20 min a game…
I’m assuming Kofi should have a field day in that one…
-
Even the Michigan boards think he should be gone
https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/punch-out-snowflakes-hoops
-
I don't see Howard can return. He has to be fired.
5 and 14 on Michigan have to suspended for at least the rest of the season for throwing multiple punches.
Otherwise, Michigan and the B1G have no credibility.

Howard needs a minimum season long suspension from Michigan; or to be fired. Inexcusable for a coach. And apparently over a timeout? Grow the fuck up.
-
If either of these schools are smart (ha!), they'd dole out their own punishment swiftly and severely to all involved. Waiting for the conference to do your dirty work is chickenshit and bad PR.
-
Now, some are blaming Gard and Krabbenhoft. They are saying Gard instigated the whole thing by trying to shake Howard's hand. Then Krabbenhoft was allegedly talking smack to Michigan players. I am reminded of the idiots who said the security video showed Michael Brown paid for the cigars.
There is also a big debate over punch versus slap.
The race card has been played.

Gard put his left hand on Howard's right arm. That is a conciliatory gesture. Krabbenhoft probably should have stayed out of it, but he didn't hit anyone. Not sure who on Wisconsin deserves punishment.
We don't know what Krabbenhoft said, but there is no excuse for slapping or hitting.
-
Howard didn't even give anything close that can be constituted as an apology in his presser. He pinned the blame on Gard, then tried to play the self-defense card with "I needed to protect myself" and rambled on more about the team and family having each other's back as if he's Vin Diesel in a Fast and Furious movie.
Congratulations on setting a great example for the kids you're coaching too. You got them involved and now they themselves face disciplinary action due to your petulance. Way to be a leader of men, Juwan.

Howard whined about Gard calling a TO with 15 seconds left, thinking it unsportsmanlike. What about him with a full court press with a minute to play and down 16 or 18 points? And then to tell his team to intentionally foul after Gard calls a TO? He wouldn't issue an apology in the presser. He makes it sound like Gard was trying to embarrass him. He's a bad joke. Hope the league and UM come down on him.
Like you said, real classy and setting an example to his players and even his son, who is on the team.
Like another poster said, him being suspended when the Illini play them means Phil Martelli is the coach, probably better for UM.
-
"This is not the first time Howard, who signed a five-year extension through 2025-26 in November, and his team have been involved in a post-game kerfuffle.
It happened when Michigan faced the Scarlet Knights in Piscataway last month -- Diabate was the main culprit here as Howard was not involved in the chaos at Jersey Mike’s Arena -- and at the Big Ten Tournament last year against Maryland and Mark Turgeon.
The severity of the incident and the fact it is part of a pattern will likely force the hand of Big Ten Commissioner Kevin Warren, who received a phone call from Wisconsin Athletic Director Chris McIntosh."
-
It’s sad his hand needs “forced.” Just a terrible display of leadership by Howard AND Warren.

Michigan response: we'll wait to aee what the commish does, before we dont do anything.

What a terrible response by the University of Michigan. Basically saying we aren’t punishing him unless the B1G does and forces us to. Straight trash. Even the leadership above Juwan is embarrassing.

"Re. Juwan Howard's impending suspension will be, per the Big Ten Sportsmanship Policy, the league office is limited to 2 games and a $10,000 fine."
The 2 games should be Rutgers up next and MSU after us. We'll take Howard on the bench for our game.
Kofi got 3 games.
Well played, George.
-
Saw a frame-by-frame breakdown of the incident somewhere. Gard, the coach who got hit, et al., do not appear very innocent in all this either.
-
No win situation for Warren. Howard should be gone. He grabbed an opposing HC in a threatening manner and struck an opposing assistant. Also the two Michigan players who threw multiple punches should be done for the season.
I guess one Wisconsin player threw punches. He should be suspended too.
Will Warren slap Gard with a suspension for attempting to shake hands? Is there a rule against touching Juwann Howard?
How about Krabbenhoft for pushing players apart? Is that against the rules? That is what assistant coaches do.
Yet there will be pressure on Warren to take some action for the sake of optics.
That's my take right now.
-
Players throwing punches 2 games
Coaches Grabbing another Coach or player other than seperating them for sake of safety/peace. Fine/Suspension 1 game
Coaches punching another player/Coach 3-5 game suspension and fine to conference and public apology.
Coaches or Players grabbing/seperating others, no intent shown, no penalties.
-
I don't see how #5 plays another game this year. He hurt several people. I counted 3 different people he dropped. The rest of the players is anyone's interpretation, but will likely not be more than 2 games. Howard's should be at least until the Big Ten tournament if not season ending.

Weird stuff going on at IU tonight. IU player misses a FT, another player gets a finger on it, bounces off the floor and goes through the hoop. 5 seconds later Maryland player shoots a 3, ball goes straight up off the back rim and comes straight down for a made 3.
What is IU wearing tonight? Pink circles on the jersey.

Wisconsin under Gard is like the lowish ceiling Gene Keady teams of the 80s. Quietly winning/splitting Big Ten titles when even your own fans know you’re not the best team in the league. They still have two tough matchups with @Rutgers tonight and home against Purdue.
If we win out, Wisconsin loses tonight but beats Purdue, we share title with Wisconsin and get #1 seed in BTT with the tiebreaker….unless dark horse Brutus wins out, which is a realistic possibility with a trip to Maryland and three at home (Nebraska, MSU, and UM) to finish. Then they’d have the tiebreaker on us. They split this season with Wisconsin.

Isn’t ND in the ACC for basketball only?
But you’re right, Gonzaga really doesn’t fit the part of a PAC school at all in a way that you could argue ND fits the ACC or B1G.
Gonzaga is truly in a unicorn type situation. If they leave for the PAC and start losing 4-6 conference games a year, then they aren’t a perennial one seed by virtue of a weak ass conference slate that artificially boosts them while teams in legit conferences are beating each other up. Then the brand suffers and maybe they become an also-ran.
They could probably earn a lot more money from their brand in a better conference. But man, having watched more PAC games than usual this winter, it’s amazing to me how depressing and shitty the atmosphere is considering the traditions and history some of these schools have. The crowd at St Mary’s was better than most PAC games I’ve seen.
The other side effect of the weak conference is they get a lot more opportunity to rest guys and get/stay healthy before the tourney. Could also argue that they aren’t as tuned up though because of level of comp, but conference tourney probably helps with that.
-
Yeah they could easily join for basketball only. I wouldn’t see a benefit to Gonzaga for this as their perception is that of a blue blood currently. Why would they? There’s only disadvantages for them honestly. I think the PAC-12 would like it to boost their conference.
I just think it’s shit that they have such an easy road every year. Credit to them for getting their program to where it’s at, but once it’s a power, staying there isn’t too difficult considering their competition. They’d get beat up more for sure being in a stronger conference. This for sure would give them more losses and beat them up more come tourney play.
-
I'd be more open to the "easy road" argument if they didn't also have a ton of tournament success lately. They have two S16's, two E8's, and two title game appearances in the last 6 tournaments.

Root for PU.
I think.
If Wisco wins out, they're #1 seed. If PU beats the Hoosiers and we win out, we get #3 seed.
If PU and Ill win out, we get the #2 seed and would face a 7 or 10 seed. Wisco gets the #3 seed and plays #6.
Bucknuts stay at #4.
If the standings stay as is, Sparty would be #6 and Rutgers would probably be #7.

I feel like playing in a weak conference hurts Gonzaga in the tourney. I think there’s something to be said for having no breathers in conference play. Have an off night in the B1G and you’re probably going to get beaten.

I’d argue it helps them for the fact they’re not all beat up come tourney time and can experiment with a lot of different things (offenses, lineups, defenses, etc..) throughout the season without fear of losing a game. Occasionally you’ll get a St. Mary’s type of upset, but those are rare.
Edit- then having that high seed in the tourney makes it MUCH easier to have the success they’ve had the last six years. I know, here comes the Illini-Loyola jab, but more often than not that’s an outlier.

Watch Loyola vs Illinois 1st rd matchup
It looks like Loyola will have to win MVC to get in

There are pros and cons of being in that conference. St. Mary's is usually tough, same with BYU. San Francisco is having a good year. The rest of the conference is blah. So, they only have 6 tough conference games, some years just 4. It's a double edged sword for them. Gotta have talented players and coach to have success there.

Perhaps you missed the game in Champaign the other night?
Yeah, the Buckeyes sh*t the bed against Nebraska (and at Maryland the previous game), but it's (only) basketball so no big deal in my book. The real concern in Columbus is whether the defense will allow <20 points/game this fall against Notre Dame (1st game for new DC, revamped defense), Wisconsin, Iowa and in road games at MSU and Penn State.

I have watched them pretty closely in the last month. They present a lot of issues and have several different guys who can hurt you besides Murray who is playing at ridiculous level on both sides of ball right now.
Their length and versatility is a legit matchup issue. They play five out a lot. On the other hand they likely cannot deal with Kofi really if he makes good decisions.
This is best Iowa defense I have seen out of McCaffery. They mix it up a lot and are more athletic than normal.
If they get a good game out of Bohannon and couple of role guys we will have tough time. Murray will get his.
-
If both Murrays go off again, we lose by double digits. Bohannon will be harrassed by Frazier so I think Trent can neutralize him easily.
-
Well, they really didn't go off much last time. Keegan was hurt and only got 19 and Kris only had 6. They are averaging like 33 now between them. Would love to hold them to 25 again but we do not have anyone that can guard either of them as they iso so much and spread the floor. Hard to get help there.
And Bohannon sucked all year, until last few weeks when they moved him to point.He has ball in his hands and chucks from anywhere off delayed breaks mostly so will get shots up now. He often is terrible, but sometimes is unconscious. Agree we can stay in front of him in half court, but they try and run every play and on taking it out of bounds. The older McCaffery now making threes, Perkins is quietly blowing up, and the younger McCaffeery can be good.
They are playing like a Top 15 team who is hot so will be tough one.
Will be interesting.
And we played very well in the first game and only won by 4.
-
And we haven't put together a complete game since when.... I don't even remember.
Our rotations are all over the place. The only thing that is consistent seems to be the starting lineup.

I read an article that Alexander gets the offense, Chet gets the defense and Anderson gets the substitution patterns. I'm guessing we've all questioned our substitutions this season.

Anderson is around for something else... :P, that said if you have to let someone perform in game work, then subbing in and out is the least possible area to screw up and also least possible thing that experience is needed for....it's an ebb and flow thing (fluid) I think the experts call it. I have seen BU call back or call up his own as well many a times. BU can good cop/bad cop in this scenario to get his points across as well.

Was that the reason for the technical? McGowens got thrown out?
Nebby just got called for everything in a few minute span.
Davis was driving, got tripped up or was tripped up. I thought the foul call was on the guy he was driving past, and a shooting foul. Apparently the foul was a dead ball foul for tripping Davis. Anyhow, when Davis put the shot up, Bryce McGowens brother went to block it, had no chance and brought his forearm down on Davis's face. Flagrant 1 ok, but I'm not sure about a flagrant 2. 2 players pick up fouls and McGowens gets tossed.
Vogt went in for a layup, ran a guy over and got called for a charge. I think another ref thought the Nebby player had his feet inside the arc and called it a blocking foul. The Nebby player didnt have his feet inside the arc, but the blocking foul call on the Nebby player stuck.
Verge drove and put up a shot and got bumped. No call on Wisco. Verge turned to go back down court and turned his head and looked back at the ref, and that was about it. Got whistled for the T.

Nebraska got fucked and still won the game!!

3 games left, and the only team that knows it's seed is #9 Indiana
Ooops. They just said tOSU is #6 seed.

Anyone check to see if Gard ended up in the refs locker room??? Funny how they get all those calls and still lose.

Oh yeah, and fuck Brad Davidson!

That 28 footer he took has to be questioned. Really dumb.

Looks like DJ Carstenson reffing the Sparty game.

They shit the bed and the clock has struck midnight on that pumpkin of a team.
Hate to see Davis hurt, but they are in serious trouble if he is not full speed.

No doubt they are in big trouble if Davis is out.
9 minutes in before the Turtles get a basket against Sparty.

Refs are making sure Wisconsin will win.
Nebraska player gets a tech for just looking at the ref.
Before that their best player got a flagrant 2 and was kicked out of the game.
Nebraska had 9 fouls at the 16 minute TV timeout
The Huskers best player (Bryce McGowens) didn't even play. He was out with a hand injury. His brother Trey was called for the horsesh*t flagrant 2 and was ejected.

Despite losing to Nebraska, Seth Davis just said Wisco is Big10 champs.
Not so fast, Seth.

Fuck Seth!

Davis send $$ to the refs to make sure Illini lose?

DJ Carstenson explaining to Danny Manning why he didnt call a flagrant 1 on Sparty, or any foul. Lol.

The turtles were down 22. Now down 5 with 7 1/2 to go.

Maryland coming back against Michigan State.

Wisconsin is still B1G champs so not sure what the problem is with the statement unless he made it sound like they had the outright title locked up. Still can’t believe they pulled it off. When they got down 10 I decided to go to the neighbors to play bags. Went into bedroom and changed and put some laundry away. When I came back out to the living room Verge hit the three to take the lead. Needless to say I watched the rest before leaving.

Co-champs is what I'm hoping for.
