I was right, it’s very great lol
I can see a team come out of nowhere and beat them again like FDU did last year.
Refs apparently think so
Bottom line, if we win out and Purdue's only loss is to us, then we'd need Nebraska to finish ahead of Michigan St in the B1G standings to win the tiebreaker for the #1 seed in the BTT.
Yes. No other player in the country effects a game like he does. He is the one player is college ball that's team is 100% reliant on him. Purdue is top 5 with him and borderline top 40 without him.

I thought they were their practice jerseys for a second. So ugly and plain
Dressed for Woodson funeral...
Really bad practice jerseys?
After Caitlin Clark got slammed (sort of) by an osu fan, they weren't taking any chances today.lamest court storm of all time.
Will Eady be guarding Ty in the rematch?
I'd take that, feel like we're better prepared for that match up this time around
You called it?
If delusional/uppity Indiana fans are as appalled by these uniforms as I think they are, they are wearing the best thing since sliced bread.
Okay, we need to know. What did you voodoo today to make this happen?
Can somebody lay out the tiebreaker scenarios/rules?
Ohio State 73-69 Purdue (Feb 18, 2024) Box Score - ESPN
Box score for the Ohio State Buckeyes vs. Purdue Boilermakers NCAAM game from February 18, 2024 on ESPN. Includes all points, rebounds and steals stats.
Purdue made 20/20 free throws an still went down.
It's head to head, then better record percentage against next best team in the final standings and so on.
In the current standings it would be WI, but both PU and IL would be undefeated against them so then it would go to MSU and if PU doesn't lose to them, they would win.
Hypothetically, the first team we have a better percentage against is Nebraska.
It does get a little more complicated if there are ties in the standings so it's hard to say definitively what games are good for our tie breaker chances vs bad. It's much easier to just root for IL and whoever is playing PU

That sounds like a thing where we are stuck likely playing MSU on Saturday of the BTT, barring something crazy.
Correct. Theoretical scenarios:
Purdue finishes 16-4 (losses to NW, Neb, OSU, ILL)
Illinois finishes 16-4 (losses to MD, MSU, Purdue, and NW)
-Purdue would own all MSU and Wisky adjacent tiebreaker. We would own the Neb tiebreaker, so would need Nebraska to finish in 3rd to win the BTT 1 seed.
Purdue finishes 16-5 (losses to NW, Neb, OSU, ILL, MSU or Wisky)
Illinois finishes 16-5 (losses to MD, MSU, Purdue, and NW, not Wisky or Purdue)
-Purdue would either tie MSU tiebreak and win Wisky adjacent tiebreaker or win Msu tiebreaker and lose Wisky tiebreaker. We would also own the Neb tiebreaker, so would need Nebraska to finish in 3rd, or Wisky 3rd in the scenario they beat Purdue, or Nebraska 4th, untied with Wisconsin, with MSU 3rd considering an MSU win over Purdue to win the BTT 1 seed.
