2/18 Weekend Games

[RabidDawgClassic]

I’ve underestimated Northwestern all season, and even now, as I look at their remaining schedule, I’m still doing it. Gotta respect what they’ve done so far, and there’s a long way to go, but boy will I be if they win a National Championship before we do.

 

[Scoregasm]

Is everyone prepared to lose to NW at home?

 

[TCTORNADO]

Northwestern now 11 - 5 in the BIG. Who would have predicted that at the beginning of the season?

Media had them #13 pre-season in BIG.

Unfortunately, I am.

IMO Kelly Pfeifer is the worst. All 4 are horrendous though.

Not directed at you, but is there 1 official that you are happy about when they walk out onto the court or we see them on tv?

Dorsey is pathetic too!

I’m honestly happy when I don’t recognize any of them because I know there won’t be any bias. I know you asked someone else but this is why I feel this team could actually make a sweet 16.

Michigan will get the win and awarded the higher seed

History says they might be awarded regular season title as well

Moe, Curly & Shemp?

Curly and Shemp never appeared together. Shemp was Curly's replacement after Curly had a stroke.

Fun read. Or not.

I thought Curly after recovery he appeared one last time on a train. I might be wrong. NW looks good. Very scrappy and experienced. Maybe we will shoot 40 ft at home against NW. Neb looked good at home today.

It's hilarious how wrong they were

Not that this year's Big Ten was easy to predict, but still, Purdue at 6th and Michigan at 3rd is pretty funny.

True, but they were all Howards (brothers).

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

No, I'm not. Let's beat Minny, then turn out attention to them. If we have the talent that we think that we do, we'll take care of NW similar to the way did Rutgers.

NW's own version of Podz: Frosh Barnhizer. Announcers said he averaged 37 pts/game his senior year of high school.
How did Chrissy grab this guy when no one else did?

 

[RockfordIllini]

Yesterdays games have me feeling even better about where we are at as a team. It’s just really really hard to win on the road in conference this year, particularly right now. Stinks we weren’t able to make enough plays at the end but felt like we played better than IU without our leading scorer and RJ going 0-6.

Fingers crossed TSJ comes back unfazed and with fresh legs, and Luke can give us 20-25 productive minutes and shoot 3’s at about a 35% clip going forward.

hate to say it, but if you look, you will see Michigan is tied for 4th right now. Despite sucking in non-conference, they have won 9 games in the B1G so far.

 

[OrangeLife]

We will get Courtney Green, DJ Baldhead, and Larry Sciroto tomorrow night
