Tell me about the NEW Big Ten

Hats off to Washington for their win over my hometown team Minnesota. My Gophers just ran out of gas in that 2nd half.

Do you think the Minnesota will make the NCAAT?

Not JellyBean, but a smart committee should be looking not to reward a team with the combination of 0 Quad 1 wins and a 100% Quad 4 nonconference schedule. Incentivize coaches to schedule better. Also didn’t beat a top 100 Net team away from home.

Games today were on Peacock, but all 2nd round games will be on BTN on Thursday. Yay!

Looks like Indiana was in control just about the whole way, beat Oregon 78-62.

Minnesota doesn’t deserve to make the tournament imo. Some team like Richmond or unlv will probably lose and allow a team to steal a bid. And that should boot them out.

Oregon may have been in a fairly positive situation for the NCAA last week but I am less sure at this point. Losing their last two games @UW and to Indiana today by double figures will not help their case. Sets up a sacrificial lamb scenario with a double digit seed. Oh well. My dreams of a 20 win season game up a bit short.

Well my basketball related PTSD is back. Dawgs give up a 16-2 run to end Q3. 5 TOs and 9 straight missed shots before they finally hit one. Went from up 3 to down 11.

Congrats to Michigan. Washington just couldn't overcome that horrendous stretch in Q3. 66-58 final. Olson led the way. Daniels had a great game for the Huskies but needed more help.

I find it fascinating how many people from Pac 12 Network are now with Big 10 Network. Just this game, Krista Blunk was on the call and Ashley Adamson and Elise Woodward were on the halftime/post game panel.

Your bigs had to have missed at least 10 point blank shots. Indiana just had too much offense for Oregon.
