Waukegan's Big Ten Team (apologies to anyone from Waukegan - that was the first north suburb that isn't Evanston that popped into my head) doing a lot to make this look like an intrasquad scrimmage. What genius in the NW athletic office thought it would be a good idea to wear what's essentially Iowa colors facing the Hawkeyes????

I don't know how Iowa does it year after year, but they always come up with players that completely annoy me for no good reason. Payton Sandfort has joined the list. And I'm already sure Brock Harding will be there as soon as he starts averaging more than four minutes a game.
You can just make fun of him for going gray at 21.

(In all seriousness, probably not a good idea. He can’t help it.)

I don’t know how northwestern can get this game or both of their next with their injuries stacking up. I was surprised when I turned it on and Nicholson wasnt playing as well as langborn and berry

He’s your classic tryhard. Those guys are always annoying unless they’re on your team

Hate seeing Iowa win but it puts room between us and NW.

Also, NW is missing nearly half the players that typically give them minutes

If Iowa holds on, they will be playing to get into the tourney-your telling me we could knock them out? Yes please
Even better we've just clinched at least a tie for 2nd place in the BT.
How do we look for the tie breakers for the BTT 2 seed?

As most people have I’ve been pretty loud about how average/bad the conference is this year. Especially with MSU and Wiscy faltering down the stretch.

But, I’m actually starting to buy into the hype that this high tempo offense style a lot of the B1G team have right now may actually translate well to the tournament and these teams could cause some chaos and make some noise

I rarely hate the players everyone else gets annoyed with on fan sites.

Nobody on Iowa really bugs.

Harding is interesting, with his scrawny arms and one of them being essentially a sleeve of tats.

current players in the big ten I can't stand: Klesmit, Langborg, Barnhizer, Loyer, Reese, am I missing anyone else?

The only team that could catch them is NW. Illinois has already clinched top 3. That being said, let's win both next week
Correct. The way the tiebreakers line up, we have at least the 2 seed unless we were to lose our last 2 games and Northwestern wins their last 2 games. Any win of ours or Northwestern loss clinches at worst the 2 seed. Projected odds that we have a 2 seed or higher at the time of this post is 95.9%. Wisconsin, Northwestern, Nebraska, and MSU all lost their last game while we won ours effectively clearing the path.
