I believe there's some in State College who would disagree with you.
Alabama has now jumped back to second.
It’s all: 129.0, 128.9, 128.8.
More than a full 2 points ahead of 4th place Vanderbilt (126.5).
Illini now No. 7 in NET, ahead of UConn, Iowa State, Houston, BYU, MSU, Vandy among others...

why? recruiting territory? we have multiple states with at least two B1G representatives
BYU's best win is Clemson in a game they trained by 21 at half and Wisconsin. I'm calling the fraud alert on both them and ISU.
Big Ten is the best conference. Big 12 overrated.

Penn State getting blitzed by Maryland's David Coit. 7-9 already including 4-5 from three
Make it 5-6.
Make it 5-6.
Watching Penn St and Maryland and do refs not call traveling at all? I hope we arent headed to the NBA crap. Maryland guard on a step back just changed his pivot and shuffled like 6 steps and the Fla guard chin did about 5 times on his key three yesterday. It was way worse than the one Minnesotas guy had on the drive yesterday that was missed. I hope dont let this to get worse. Both those steps backs they did the damn cha-cha big time and it wasnt called. I cant imagine what Coach Henson or other may do if they saw those guys walk all over the place and hit a key shot

David Coit of Maryland with 30 points in the first half, out scoring Penn state by himself..
Finally some movement.
Nebraska ahead of us in the NET. The biggest disparities between the NET and Kenpom are:
Nebraska 7 NET v 13 Kenpom (no losses but close games)
Florida 15 NET v 9 Kenpom (likely due to 5 losses)
Further down the list SLU 22 NET v 29 Kenpom

Hope they’re not getting their mojo back before we play them.
Hope Colt & company get that out of their system before Wednesday’s game
How did the Minnesota win do this?

Better him going off on Penn State than us.
Because everyone plays closer games than anticipated.
They've been rivals in football for years.
I would guess that Texas Tech beating BYU handily, Iowa State losing two in a row, including getting crushed by Kansas and losing to a mediocre Cincinnati team, UCONN barely escaping Georgetown and Vandy losing again, this time at home, all were factors. Of the three losses the Illini have, the worst right now is to Alabama and they are still at 18 in the NET. Long way to go, but the Illini have lots of great Q1 opportunities ahead of them and few torpedo games. One of those is Wednesday against Maryland, who right now has a player (Coit) who's almost outscored Penn State by himself.
Penn State had a crazy-hard early B1G schedule with a four-game stretch of us, Purdue, Sparty and Michigan, and really hung with all four teams. Then they get outscored by 30 in the first half against another winless school.
and their young star Mingo is active today
