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

Jesus they are still sobbing about a couple calls after the free ride Edey got for the last two years?

Lol

Maybe you’re think of Goldin. Wolf is pretty skilled. Not a lot of bigs average 3.6 assists per game.

It was a joke.

The last time the entirety of the B1G was in the top 100 of KenPom was 2019. We've got a chance to have it happen again, which is wild as we now have 18 teams vs 14 that year. You'd think at least one B1G would suck profusely every year but not this season.


The B1G as a whole has zero NET Q4 losses and just 8 Q3 losses. Rutgers and Minnesota are the only teams with 2.



KenPom ranks:


8 Purdue

12 Wisconsin
15 Illinois

19 Maryland
22 Michigan
23 MSU
26 UCLA
28 OSU


36 Nebraska
37 Oregon


53 Indiana
56 USC
58 NW

62 Iowa


72 Rutgers
73 PSU



92 Minnesota
95 Washington

8 of the top 28 teams in both the NET and KenPom are B1G teams. We may not have a legit title contender but there is more depth at the top than in some time.

Top 30 KenPom teams by year:

2025 8
2024 5
2023 4
2022 3
2021 6
2020 11 (The COVID year has questionable statistical relevance because we didn't have the out of conference depth if interplay)
2019 5
2018 5
2017 3
2016 5

Only 2021 (6/14 vs 8/18 is close) compares in the last decade.

If nobody watched it, did it really happen?

The standings reflect that a game was played.

That's all that matters.

Iowa at 62 is a f***ing joke. If the "metrics" say we're one of the 62 best teams in the country, and a team like Drake is only 2 spots better, then ole Kenny Pom Poms needs to ride off into the sunset.

Iowa is a f***ing joke.

Agreed
