*Official* 2017-2018 B1G In-Season Thread

It's been awhile, but I remember tying in-conference and having a better out-of-conference record.
yup but Iowa won the game during the season. so by the tie breaker Iowa was better.
I believe that was your excuse last season when Iowa had the better record, as Illinois won both games.
 
Iowa won 9 games in the OOC vs Illinois who won 10 games. not much there to brag about.
 
This next post was said many times about Iowa in College Football's 2015-2016 season and I didn't appreciate it at the time. I still don't now since we were a defensive stop away from the College Football Playoff, but I think it can be said for College Basketball this season. The fake ID (Nebraska) of College Basketball 2017-2018 has been exposed and won't/shouldn't go to the NCAA Tournament
 
Ohio's brew game is on point. Loved the beer I tried in Columbus. Highly recommend taking a trip there if you like craft beer.
I have friends in Columbus that I visit every couple months - and I always try and drink local whenever I travel. CBC, Land Grant, and Seventh Son are the ones that immediately come to mind as beers I've really enjoyed.

Like all three of those. The food trucks are really good as well. They have a food truck festival that's a good time too.

Not familiar with this rule.
 
I am in Cincinnati. Only distributing in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. We are doing beer, ciders and distilled spirits (our 2 year bourbon will be out in a couple of weeks).

I’ve got a buddy at Braxton Brewery. Haven’t been yet.

Good luck with the brewery, cool escape from tech.
 
Waiting for my train to Grand Central. Only one of my three buddies made it in today due to this Noreaster. Either way, I’ll be at MSG tonight so far.

My buddy from austin has been at the airport since 11:30 today.

Thats typical Hoosier arrogance snd entitlement right there. U always keep playing if NIT picks u, esp if coach is just getting started. More practices and kids play more games. CBI, yeah no thanks tho.
So you're a mind reader? I don't want to play in the NIT bot b/c I think IU is "to good", i.e. above the NIT. I don't wanna play in it b/c I want this shit show over. Has nothing ro do with being arrogant.

And if it's about more practices/games, then why not the CBI?
 
also @KisteK you assume to much,
also did u know that the word assume breaks down like this ass + u + me = assume.

*too

Actually, I offered guesses, even labeled them as such.
Assume and Guess are close, but assume usually means to conclude without merit.
My guesses for Cook possibly wanting to leave absolutely have a base to stem from.
You know, after another poster asked why someone would want to go to Mizzou.

Maybe you assumed I was assuming.
I never thought Cook would leave, and I wouldn't want him at Mizzery anymore than you would.

Besides, Cook already effed himself.
.. unless he og was aiming to not be apart of a relevant team with a competent coach.

Are you assuming both Porters are leaving?
Do you have any inside knowledge, or nah?
Because, legit, I could be behind on Tiger Athletics.

Just ftr, remind me again, why tf we'd give any push matter about Uthoff's numbers in that abomination of a response.
Are you assuming each player's trajectory is similar?
Did you assume we could use that info, somehow?

I'm telling ya Gil, this making an ass of you and me, apparently, is exhausting.

Assuming is not for me. I'll just leave it to the pros.

Yeah lots of cancelled trains from Boston to Penn Station today, and as a result all the trains tomorrow morning are sold out from people re-booking. I'm bummed.
 
PSU bus accident on the way to the game...PSU BTT Champs confirmed?

the stats between Uthoff and Nunge are actually telling Uthoff Red Shirted his 1st year, Nunge made 5 starts as a true FR, 2 at the 5 and 3 at the 3. these were Uthoff JR season stats
30.3 mpg, 12.4 ppg, 6.4 rpg 218 total rebounds, 38 steals and 56 blocks, shooting 43% from the field, 37.2% from 3 and 75% from the FTL. Nunge will be a SO. so yeah I do think Nunge can be as good if not better, to many only look at what he did as a senior and not what he did before.

and to those that claim Fran can't develop players these results tell a different story
3* unranked Marble ended up a 1st Team All BT and 2nd round NBA Pick
3* Unranked White ended up a 1st Team All BT and 2nd round draft pick
Uthoff a 3* ended up a 1st Team All BT 2nd Team AA.
Jok a 3* ended up a 1st Team All BT

CAN'T develop players is a BIG pile of BULL SHIT.
 
Demand for tickets must be sht tonight due to the weather. My buddy just stubhubbed our tix at center court (section 117) for basically face value of $75 plus fees.

So why is Iowa so bad
 
So why is Iowa so bad
because this team was so young with no backup PG or a solid 5th starter. again these were the top 5 scorers
SO Cook 15.3 ppg
SO Bohannon 13.5 ppg
FR Garzas 12.1 ppg
SO Moss 11.1 ppg [player by year]
FR Nunge 5.7 ppg

does that help?
this is where PG Connor comes in has a much needed backup to Bohannon, and I expect SG/WG Wieskamp to be that 5th consistent player off the bench which means no more Nunge at the 3.
 
Osu just doesn’t have the guard play to beat psu imo. Tate and diop gonna have to be great
 
to add to this here is my starting line up with Cook then W/O Cook
PG JR Bohannon
SG FR Wieskamp
WG JR Moss
PF JR Cook
C SO Cook
w/o
PG Bohannon
SG Wieskamp
WG Moss
PF SO Nunge
C Garza

Then why didn’t you think they’d struggle this year? You predicted them to be good

PG Williams would have been a JR, while not a scorer last year but as a perimeter defender at 6'6 with a 7'0 wingspan made him a very good defensive player who quit 1 week before the 1st game.
Baer the returning BT 6th MOY broke his finger on his shooting had and missed the 1st 6 games and never really recovered the form that made him the 6TH man. then there were the multiple concussions that knocked players out of the game,

Connor who was going to RS took the RS off to replace Williams suffered a ankle injury, then Mono which put him into the Hospital, then he had his Tonsils out, which put him into the hospital twice because of complications

Connor now is on a Medical RS as he only played in 4 games in December,

I made my prediction based on who should been healthy and still on the team.

just like Minnesota fans had big hopes before injuries and legal troubles took out 2 of their players and their season went to hell in a handbasket.

guess what so did Iowa's but you don't see people ripping little Pintino do you?
 
So I was supposed to meet three friends in the city today and this how it’s gone:

Buddy 1: flew early this morning from Pitt and made it in with no issues

Buddy 2: got really sick and went to the hospital with the flu. Not going to make it from Philly.

Buddy 3: went to the Austin airport at 11:30. Boarded and deplaned 3 times after switching flights twice. Was told a few minutes ago that the third plane/flight has been cancelled. Hopefully he can make it tomorrow.

Me: Boarded the train in CT at 6:08. Train goes for about 35 min and stops due to a tree on the tracks. After 40 minutes they said that the train is cancelled and will take us backwards. I get off on first stop and am in an Uber going the rest of the way. I may make the 8:55 Purdue start, but it will be tight. Have to drop my bags off at the Soho Grand before going to MSG.
