[QUOTE="Illinijose, post: 1251918, member: 519068"] I was curious what was going to be the minimum required to get into the NCAA. For a Big Ten team going back 5 years it typically means the floor is a 9-9 record and 21 overall wins. Some exceptions are the 8-10 Minnesota in 2012 who had 21 wins and the 2010 PSU and Purdue teams who were both 9-9 in conference but just 19-14 overall. It appears the trend lately is 21-22 wins and 10 conference wins. So to be safely in the tourney that appears to be the number. So a 10-8 record and finishing the non-conference with 10 wins, plus one BTT win will get us IMHO. A 9-9 BT record will likely mean more 2-3 BTT conference wins and winning 9-10 non-conference wins. Like most here I would like a higher seed and not sweating it on selection Sunday. [/QUOTE]
