*****Official B1G In Season Thread*****

[hawkit3113]

I was actually calling you the clown.

For that garbage B1G schedule. It’s a lot of peoples crutch this season.

Meanwhile here’s our crutch.

That was the overall schedule, numb nuts, lol

We used the Big 10, lol. Ate a bunch of cupcakes and road coatails blahahahahahaha

 

[hawkit3113]

Win a conference championship then you can talk.

Ok @boiler1980.

 

[hailtoyourvictor]

We lost to UCLA in the tourney, just like Juwan Coward.

Your weird obsession with us "not making the tournament" is really bizarre, even for you.

We won three NCAA Tournament games and you guys were eliminated before the first round. Nothing bizarre about that.

What's bizarre is you guys started 14-2 and now you're shutting games off in the first half. January-February-Izzo, no?

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Any good meltdowns?

I guess Purdue fans on their homebound, at least.

Also, Ohio State basketball has taken on the mantle of the February Fade, that Iowa graciously passed on..........

 

[hailtoyourvictor]

The past couple years have really worn on him. Missing the field of 64 last year, having his prized Emoni Bates class fall apart, and now collapsing after a 14-2 start. I wonder how many years he has left in the tank.

Does this mean Davis is PotY in the B10? He gets my vote. Led his team to the title.

Unless NEBRASKETBALL drops a nuke in the Kohl Center and Illinois/Purdue can move into a tie! Lol.

 

[hailtoyourvictor]

I shut it off after we missed like 10 shots in a row in the 1st half

No hope for Izzo 2nd half magic? It's March, you know.

At least he's not sucker punching opposing team's coaches. 🤣

Maybe he should start. Something obviously needs to change.

Nah, that's something classless coaches do.

Something tells me Izzo isn't too concerned about the opinions of some internet t shirt fan.

I watched more of the MSU game than you did last night.

Just wondering why you had no hope in March Izzo.

 

[boilerzz]

That was the overall schedule, numb nuts, lol

Nope. That was just the Big Ten schedule. If you want the overall SOS:

6 Michigan

12 Wisconsin
14 Illinois
15 MSU
17 OSU
20 Maryland
23 Minnesota
26 Nebraska
30 NW
31 PSU
32 Purdue


47 Rutgers

55 IU


73 Iowa

Hopefully the tournament committee considers this. I’d feel more comfortable with an extra win or two vs the 6th hardest schedule in the country.

I think you need 2 more wins. 18-13 or 18-14 probably gets you in. If you split the last 2 and lose in the 1st round of the BTT (or lose both and win only one in the BTT), it doesn't look good. That would give you 15 losses.

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

What site is best to use for SOS rankings? I had previously just picked the first one I found, and it had this for B1G teams:

6. Illinois
8. Michigan
9. Purdue
11. Wisconsin
12. Michigan State
13. Ohio State
28. Maryland
29. Iowa
32. Penn State
33. Indiana
34. Northwestern
37. Rutgers
40. Minnesota
61. Nebraska

Just wondering why you had no hope in March Izzo.

Check the thread, I've been critical of this MSU team all year. When we go cold we go ice cold.

If you're trying to compare fan devotion levels, I've been to well over 100 MSU bball games including a Final Four and NC game. How many Michigan games have you been to?

I’m not comparing fan devotion levels. I’m wondering why you give up on March Izzo so easily. Has he lost some heat on his fastball or what?

It goes back to the SOS argument preseason. Michigan would end up around 30th in every metric if we end up 17-15.

17-15 with the #6 sos

Vs

18-14 with the #20 sos

vs

19-13 with the #40 sos


Which is better for a tournament bid?

 

[snowsquirrel11]

Unless NEBRASKETBALL drops a nuke in the Kohl Center and Illinois/Purdue can move into a tie! Lol.

We can't tie, we're 2 games back with Wisky having just 1 game left. If we'd beaten MSU there would still be a chance. Illinois can finish second or tie with Wisky if they win out and Nebrasketball beats UW (not happening)

 

[Sparty_0n]

You should write a letter to the HOF committee if you feel so strongly about it.

I think his dag has lost some speed.

Thanks for helping this boomer.

You didn’t think your HOF coach could come back vs Phil Martelli?

Why have you given up on Izzo?

 

[hawkit3113]

Lolol, suck our tournament bound nuts

Ah, my bad, you're right. By the way, I threw in my predictions to that awesome BTT seed simulator, and these are the seeds I got:

1. Wisconsin (16-4)
2. Illinois (15-5)
3. Purdue (14-6)
4. Ohio State (13-7)
5. Iowa (12-8)
6. Rutgers (11-9) - 1-0 vs. MSU
7. Michigan State (11-9) - 0-1 vs. RU
8. Michigan (10-10) - 1-0 vs. IU
9. Indiana (10-10) - 0-1 vs. UM
10. Maryland (7-13) - complicated BS tiebreaker
11. Penn State (7-13) - complicated BS tiebreaker
12. Northwestern (7-13) - complicated BS tiebreaker
13. Minnesota (4-16)
14. Nebraska (3-17)

The BTT should be nuts this year.

You might have the worst case of Izzo Derangement Syndrome I've ever seen. It consumes you.

Lap it up

I was just going to point out the bad math being attributed to the championship race when I read yours. The only team that has a shot at tying for the season championship is Illinois if they win out and Nebraska beats Wisconsin. If Illinois loses either game then Purdue can tie them for second if the beat Indiana. Top 3 can all still change depending on how this week/weekend plays out, but currently its Wisconsin with Illinois 1.5 back and Purdue 2 back.

 

[CardinalBoiler]

Congrats @jwardelt - your team definitely knows how to win close games. Mine does not.

Time to lock in for another March Sadness.

 

[Sparty_0n]

And Wisconsin hasn't won a B10 title in hours.

 

[hawkit3113]

And Wisconsin hasn't won a B10 title in hours.

I concern myself only with Iowa.

 

[jwardelt]

That’s not an accomplishment

 

[jwardelt]

And Wisconsin hasn't won a B10 title in hours.

Have to wait a whole ****ing year to do it again.

I'm almost a man and Iowa hasn't won a B1G title in my lifetime.

 

[jwardelt]

And Wisconsin hasn't won a B10 title in hours.

It's good to know UW and MSU still run this shit conference. 6 titles for each in the last 20 years.
