Living next to Louisville, there’s no race I’d put above the Derby. But, if we’re strictly talking about racing cars...the only one I could think of would be Daytona. But, I’ve never cared for the sport, so I could be wrong.

He must like wasting his money.
Daytona 500, Monoco Grand Prix, and 24 Hours of Le Mans all compare to the Indy 500.
Monoco and Indy are probably 1a 1b. I have tried to get into FI, and I just can’t.
Heard they might sign Jesus Shuttlesworth, too. Team will be sick. Should be able to win with three saviors on the team.
I'm really surprised by Rutgers and PSU's improvement, because those teams had some big losses:
Rutgers -- Omuruyi (sp?)
PSU -- Reaves, Bolton
It was easy to see that Illinois was poised for big improvements, but I'd never have expected for their defense to improve this much.
It’ll be Weezy and the 4 Jesuses.
Gif of Fran when he got his technical last night.
I nominate a new nickname for Weiskamp: Weezus.
BTW I caught like 10 min of Iowa-Rutgers last night, and am still impressed with how much Weezus has improved off the bounce. Night and day from last year.
Illinois is shooting 30.2% from 3 on the year, since their loss to MSU they're shooting 36%. That combined with Kofi rebounding and post presence and their defense is a recipe for winning.
30 for 30 present Court of Dreams: the story of Jesus and Wheezus.
@Jaycg15 I'm ready to admit Illinois might bet he 2nd best team in the B1G. 3rd at worst but Turg and all so.
Any chance Michigan and OSU miss the tournament? Michigan has lost 4 of the last 5, OSU 5 of the last 6. Both I believe were top 10 at one point. Michigan missing Livers it seems, not sure what’s up with OSU.
Ohio State should be able to right the ship in the next 3 games with 2 home games against Minnesota and IU and an away game against NW.
Yeah those 3 are key. They also ended up getting a favorable conference schedule. Only play MSU, Rutgers, and Illinois once, Rutgers and Illinois at home. Michigan not so much. I only see about 5 more wins for them if they continue to play the way they have, 7 at the most. Leaves them at 18-13 and 9-11 in conference. Puts them squarely on the bubble but the Creighton and Gonzaga wins should help. Just a wild fvcking year the more I dive into it.
Fan Duel runs promotions in certain areas and they give out ridiculous lines to sucker people in.
Locker room attitudes about playing time have really hurt OSU. Some guys just aren’t team guys I have been told. Holtmann tried to get their attention with suspensions. It’s crazy. I do expect Holtmann to right the ship the last 13 games but we shall see. If they keep playing the way they have been, they won’t sniff the tourney and don’t deserve to. This game tonight is HUGE for OSU.
You would think so yes. Sure hope it’s not a lost season after such a promising start.
Winning the next 3 would go a long way. Losing one of them might be trouble enough. Purdue at home and at Nebraska are the best chances after these 3. Maybe split the Michigan/Illinois games. Long way to go still but damn what a year its been already.
The way i see it:
Locks
MSU
Ill
Maryland
Iowa
Probably in
PSU
Rutgers
work left to do
Indiana
Wisconsin
OSU
Michigan
Not out of it but getting bleak
Minnesota
Purdue

Thats gist as I understand it. Fan Duel is blocked in Nevada, so I can't use it.
We're in just as much as PSU and Rutgers. NET and Kenpom say so at least. We can't tank but as of right now, in like flynn.
Is it "work left to do" or "Don't **** it up" for those teams?
No such thing as a lock at this point of the season. Still so much to go. Unless he's talking about a snapshot.
Possibly, honestly didn't look at NET. Just feel they slip up a game or two and you're looking at 18-19 wins with that New Mexico St game staring at you. Wisconsin could very well lose their next 4 and they're sitting at 12-11 and 5-7. 2-2 in that stretch at least and they look a lot better.
read on Fran's T last night, strange reason to get a T to me he was upset because they didn't call a foul on his players when they were fouling the Rutgers player.
I guess it must have got the Refs attention as they called a bunch of them in the 2nd half.
still a strange reason to get T'd up.

Yeah just at this moment. Over half of the conference schedule left so a lot can change.
this OL Cronk is a real good addition, two things I don't understand
1st why would you want to move a player that started 3 years at tackle to guard?
2nd why would posters on HR even speculate on him moving to guard, when that is the exact reason why he left his previous team.

Michigan would be a nine seed right now. They need Livers back ASAP.
The team was probably a 8 seed caliber team that played out of their mind in the Bahamas at full health and in turn had the resume of a 4/5 seed at the beginning of January
Odds to make the NCAA for Michigan are probably 65% right now. Those odds probably drop 5-10% for each game Livers misses moving ahead.
Gonna get steamrolled this Monday.
We'll be spent from the Purdue raping on Friday night.
Iowa is #22 on the Net. a solid 6 seed. but that will change,
last night just showed how worthless adj d is
Iowa dropped to #85 from #78
Rutgers dropped to #9 from #7

We will see...If IU gets a win tonight, the confidence will be oozing on Sunday.
