Excel Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Yep you're right, he just updated. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Will be interesting to see how many the B1G gets in. Not sure it's as many as last year - which was seven, iirc - because I don't think the league is quite as strong, at least at the top. But I have no idea how the rest of the country is doing either. Last week, ESPN's Joe Lunardi had six B1G teams in. And his first eight teams out didn't have any B1G teams either. Will be interesting to see his next update. Quote Link to comment
Excel Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 I think we could swing seven if Minnesota and Nebraska finish strong. Nebraska's got a manageable final conference run, not sure about the Gophers... Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I think we could swing seven if Minnesota and Nebraska finish strong. Nebraska's got a manageable final conference run, not sure about the Gophers... Minny has NW right now. Then Ill, @tOSU, Iowa, @ Mich, PSU. If they beat the three they should they'll need to beat one of the others to get to .500 in the conference. Then I'd say they need one more regular season win or maybe two in the conference tourney to get in. Quote Link to comment
Foppa Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I personally think there will be only five. I decided to be a homer and pick NU as the 5th. Hey, it's definitely not out of the question right now Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 5 or 6. I say 6. The top of the B1G isn't as strong this year. But the middle and bottom might be stronger. Quote Link to comment
VectorVictor Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I personally think there will be only five. I decided to be a homer and pick NU as the 5th. Hey, it's definitely not out of the question right now No, and if Nebraska's home winning streak holds, it's both possible and plausible. Quote Link to comment
nic Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 NU is on the bubble. RPI 45 and rising. Split IU/Wiscy, Beat the Illini and NW plus one B1G tourney win and your in. Quote Link to comment
CMT1525 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 USA today had Nebraska and Minnesota IN today Quote Link to comment
It'sNotAFakeID Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Unsurprisingly, we are still projected as the first team in the Next 4 Out category, not as damaging of a loss as some would like to think. However, I felt that, in Lunardi's statement, that Nebraska can go 2-2, one of the 2's in the win column was against Illinois. Now it's all the more important that we beat Wisconsin.
