Nebraska gets the most favorable officiating of any B10 team.

Always root for home team against “competitive” conference teams.
Never Michigan. Never.
It would be really hard for me to root for Michigan. Also, it'd be nice to knockoff Nebraska and hand them their first loss. We owe them. That said, I haven't looked ahead at the schedule, so it's possible it would be better for us if Michigan won. But...yuck.

Seeing Morez got me thinking:
Points/Boards/Assists/3-pointers/steals:
Morez: 13.7/6.9/1.2/4/16
Mirkovic: 12.2/8.4/2.6/27/10
Close, but I’d say the numbers favor Mirk, and I’m pretty confident in saying Mirk is taking up a much lower percentage of the NIL budget

Crazy to think Pryce Sandfort was on an Iowa team that just chucked threes and was relatively a nobody on that team let alone in the Big Ten. When BU says “elite” shooter, this should be the reference!
I think I’m rooting for Nebraska. Even though on paper, you’d root for Michigan to bring us into the multi-team tie for first…I feel like Nebraska will still lose more games than Michigan. Plus…Muck Fichigan. So…I guess I’m rooting for Nebraska.
I'm glad Michigan doesn't play McKenney that much. he's better than the other guards they have
Problem with Nebraska winning is they would be unbeaten with at Michigan and at Illinois out of the way. And neither Purdue nor msu on the road left.

FTR, my only passionate concern RE: rooting interests, way above my personal feelings toward any program or even Big Ten titles, is getting an NCAAT path through Chicago. So I want the results necessary that get the Illini playing 6 home games en route to a National Championship!
I’ve always thought Michigan’s crowd was overrated for both football in basketball

Nebraska
Beat msu
Beat @ Illinois
@ Michigan
Vs illinois
Vs Purdue
@ usc
@ ucla
Since Nebraska has beaten. 2 of the top 5 teams they need to take a loss @ Michigan or imo the conference teams start to ask who is going to finish 2nd
true and this is the logical stance but allow me to be a fan. we have 1 loss and they have no losses. we play them this weekend. we can tie it up and have our fate in our hands. typically once a team loses that opens up the cracks in the surface and they become more human. take the documentary Rocky 4.... once the Russian was cut, Rocky knew he could beat him. it's just math
also I really don't like Michigan

For sure. We control our own fate - with either result tonight.
Fear no one. And to be clear, I’ll NEVER root for Michigan
Agree. I want us to be Nebraska's first loss.
When in doubt, root for the home team. As odious as that may seem.
Rooting for Neb. We control our own destiny for StL-Chi-Ind
