I REALLY want MSU.
Most beatable of the top 4. Easiest way to the NCAA is through MSU.
That 7 seed looks pretty attainable. We have to win out. Minnesota's last two look to be Ls. Ohio State has to play at Wisconsin. I believe we hold the head-to-head tie breaker against both Rutgers and Ohio State.
Based on the generator, we win out and the above happens to OSU and Minn, we get the 7 seed.
How do the tiebreakers work such that most are suggesting we have the tiebreaker over OSU? We lost 2x to them and we have no wins against PU. Is it presuming that PSU/MSU tie and we would be 1-1 over the co-champs?

Honestly would rather be the 10 seed than be the 8/9 seed
We get the ten seed by losing to Indiana and beating PSU. Winning both gets us the 8 seed. Beating Indiana and losing to PSU gets us 8 or 9. At least that is how I remember it.Honestly would rather be the 10 seed than be the 8/9 seed
My opinion is and has been that our style of play does not translate well to this format. We don't have the depth to finish some of the games with the energy we need to be successful. I don't see any way we can sustain 4 games back to back.I'm curious to see how our style of play holds up across the long weekend. Will the Illini be more fatigued than the opponent as the weekend progresses? Or, will all teams be fatigued, and the Illini will be better suited creating an advantage?
Seems like they faded in the preseason tournament after playing Gonzaga to the wire. It would be nice to see them get a few wins in the BTT.
Looking (probably too far) forward, out of playing Purdue, UM, MSU, or Wisconsin, what is everyones order of preferred opponent? Personally Wisc, MSU, Purdue, UM is my order. UM over PU just because I think they are always a scary team this time of year, and they have more weapons than PU. Wisconsin is clearly the choice, but that would probably be at best a Saturday matchup for us.
