Where do we have to finish to get a bye?
Bottom 4 have to play on the 1st day.

I’m surprised its not colder than that. Our high Wed is -14 in western IL with lows Wed of -29. Shattering all time records and wind chills of -50. Also all time.
Forecast says -20 degrees at game time Wednesday. I know Minny is used to the cold, but gotta wonder about turnout. At the same time, they'll be fired up after their no-show performance in Champaign. How does our young team react to a good win? Recent history says to expect inconsistency.
Minny - 80
ILL - 71
Actually, I think you can. Minnesota has a guard issue from the ball handling standpoint, and I think Illinois can pressure them into turnovers. I like this matchup for that reason.I have always been tempted to put a small bet on every Big 10 home team to cover the entire season and see how I cam out.
Shooting below 40% will not get it down, we go as our shooting goes. Can not count on the Gophers turning the ball over 21 times.

Looking at the current standings, I see:

Indiana 3-6
Rutgers 3-6
Nebraska 3-6
Northwestern 3-6
Illinois 2-7
Penn State 0-9
Vegas says Minnesota -7
I thought what hurt minny during last game was not enough guard talent to handle the pressure d. They have 2 athletic gigs but then there is a big drop off which led to easy Illjni scores.

FIFYAre you saying that the forecast calls for paign?
I've lived in Anchorage for 35 years and it has only gotten that cold for a couple of days back in 1989. And when it does get cold the wind usually doesn't blow. Heck, we have had a winter or 2 where it didn't get below zero. Stay warm down there. I think we are supposed to get some rain this afternoon.

Favorite game of the season. If we win tonight, it really means something. I real turnaround and some hope for the future. If we lose, it is not the end of the world for this growing, young team.
