When I was in college we walked five miles in waist-deep snow to get to games at the Assembly Hall.

In both directions. During finals.

I was there from 78 until 82. As I recall, one winter broke the record for most snowfall, the next year broke the record for coldest, and then the next year broke both of those two records.

Seeing the line at 10.5, which seems reasonable. NB probably hasn't played a tournament team yet, although there are a few decent teams that might be borderline.

Fun fact: We are the last school to beat every other Big 10 school in a single season (went 9-0) that year.

up to 11.5 last I looked. Huge swing. Makes me wonder if someone from Nebby will be out. Or if the fix is in. Hoping for the latter. Means a sure W

I don't understand at all why we're such a big favorite. This feels like a dogfight to me.
