[seaofred92]

Last game out Wisconsin lost on the road to Rutgers. This needs to be a W.

Gard doesn't seem to have the magic that Ryan did...Wisconsin is really young but I think a lot of their records are going to fall this year.

I think I originally picked a Wisky win, I am sticking with that pick.

Must win.

Find a way to guard Happ, and this can be a W.

Happ is #1 concern. 

 

They have a few guys that can still play and dont let there record get you too comfortable.

 

We will need to play a good game to win this. not a must win but getting more to the point where if we truly want to play in the tourney, losses like this will kill our chances.

 

Gotta finish in top 5 of B1G to have a chance and with how Michigan and Ohio State are playing alongside Purdue and MSU, it wont be easy.

We do not need to be in the top 5 to get to the tournament

Wanna bet? B1G is awful this year and I would bet they only take 5 teams.

 

Michigan State and Purdue are locks.

 

Michigan and Ohio State look like they have great odds.

I'll take that bet yes, if Minnesota is 6th they will go.

Wiscy just plain isn't very good this year.  A game at home against them should be a win for an NCAAT team.

Time to decide if we want to step forward and be the team we are capable of, or regress into frustrations of the past years. I think we will be making the step forward. Need to win this one at home.

I think only 5 teams will make it...but at the same time I can't see only 5 teams from the Big Ten making it, does that make sense?

There's 14 regular season games left, and Nebraska could conceivably go 10-4 in those games. If they're sitting at 21-10 (12-6 in the conference) going to the conference tournament, they've got a really good chance at making the Dance regardless of if they're 5th or 6th in the conference.

No they wont. They lost 2 of their top players to suspension and injury.

 

Gophers wont finish in top 6.
