I think if OSU and MI play a really close good game, they both keep 1 seed lines. It would be close but we'd have to have OSU lose in pretty terrible fashion and we beat Minny convincingly. Otherwise those top two are tough to budge just playing each otherWin this game, and we’re likely on the 1 seed line come Monday
We have got to take care of our business and then thump osu at their place to dislodge them, barring any upsets before.....jmhoI think if OSU and MI play a really close good game, they both keep 1 seed lines.

Yeah that was a fastball right in the back of the dome. Been there, done that, fell down ... With Kofi, I expected it to pop a leak and go zipping around the stands.At some point during the Northwestern game, Ayo lobbed the ball at Kofi's head. Hit him so hard. Kofi didn't react. I'm on the ground holding my knees when that happens to me...

Need OSU to win. Then if we beat them both we win.as Mich with 3 losses and the head to head loss to us. Shouldn’t be a problem.I think if OSU and MI play a really close good game, they both keep 1 seed lines.

I think Michigan needs to lose by a lot, say 20 or so, before they get taken off the 1 seed line. OSU's perch is a lot more tenuous.I think if OSU and MI play a really close good game, they both keep 1 seed lines.

That's about the biggest "then if". If we just beat #3 and 4 on the roadNeed OSU to win. Then if we beat them both we win.as Mich with 3 losses and the head to head loss to us. Shouldn’t be a problem.

I also agree. Especially if Michigan loses a really really close one.I think if OSU and MI play a really close good game, they both keep 1 seed lines.

Thrown too many bricks from the arc.What did Curbelo do to his hand?? He has had two fingers taped together and a brace on his shooting hand.
14% from 3. Centers and power forwards shoot better. Turnover rate and 3-pt shooting - lots to work on this off-season!Thrown too many bricks from the arc.
You mean the fact that we've had just two different starting lineups all year? Grandison replaced DMW -- that's it. The other 4 have started every game.Anyone think Illini are running too many different lineups out there?
I think it's the elevated court. (They still have it, right?) I've played/coached on those occasionally and it's a really tough adjustment for visiting teams.Agreed, but here is some insight...simply because this Minnesota team is crazy.
According to Torvik, Minnesota is 8 in the country at home and 119 away from home. That's ridiculous and almost unexplainable considering there are no fans. I mean, I understand being more comfortable at home but not by that much. We are basically playing a completely different team, so that first game can be thrown out the window. And I'm looking through the stats and can't find anything specific that makes them so much different on the road vs at home. They do almost everything very well at home, and almost everything very poorly on the road.
So I think it is pretty fair to say a loss is expected, unfortunately. But we do have an extra day of rest over them. I kinda hope they beat IU tonight. Minnesota is right on the bubble and maybe that would make them a little less desperate against us.
Don’t know quite how it will affect us. They replaced him as a starter with Jamal Mashburn- freshman. He dropped 19 points on Indiana.Maybe already discussed... GK likely out for MINN

And then sit out the second half so Hamlin &Lieb can get some tick.Bigger news is that Robbins is well less than 100%. Kofi should have 25 and 15

LOL. Here we go again. This game will go down to the wire. I would bet my beach house there will be no clearing the bench in this one. Have we not learned how this team is?And then sit out the second half so Hamlin &Lieb can get some tick.
