Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 3418246, member: 6927"] Ohio State has a strong RPI (#25) bolstered by having the #3 SOS in the nation. And they have a signature win over Louisville. That will go a long way toward getting them in the tournament, as long as they can finish somewhere close to .500 in conference. This game at home against Maryland is a golden opportunity, but I wouldn't call it a must-win. The Big Ten is awash in teams in the 25-50 range of the RPI. At this point I'd say the Big Ten has about a 50% chance of getting 9 teams into the tournament. They could even potentially get 10, but for that either Minnesota or Michigan State would have to really start winning some games. [/QUOTE]
