When they do the brackets now is it a prediction based on what the teams have done so far, or what they think is going to happen? Quote Link to comment
Vizsla1 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 If the committee is taking 4-5 out of the B1G- are we not guaranteed a spot? I get our conference is not very stellar this year, but two things come to mind: 1) The B1G is still a could draw for viewership- so I error on the side 5 teams are chosen 2). Nebraska is hot and Vegas is liking us a lot for covering the spreads- so that has to work to our advantage with the gamblers...So I say- Nebraska gets in by their chinny chin chins Quote Link to comment

Palmer > Petteway Watson>>>>>Webster Copeland>Pitchford Roby<Shields Gill/Taylor> Gallegos/Parker Add in That team had no one like Jordy, Allen or Okeke *Reminder I’m talking about them as players now vs where those guys were at that season. Webster SR vs Webster FR isn’t even close to one another. Edited February 11, 2018 by ScottyIce Quote Link to comment

Jordy is an absolute liability on defense/rebounding, and provides his fair share of blunders on the offensive end. Okeke is quite the opposite, but at least provides another rim protector to go along with Roby. Still haven't figured out why Jordy is first off the bench before Okeke, other than Miles being scared hurt Jordy's feelings again. Edited February 11, 2018 by B.B. Hemingway Quote Link to comment

He has stone hands and cannot ever grab the basketball. It baffles me how a simple rebound turns into the ball bouncing around. Quote Link to comment

Purdue, Michigan State and Ohio State are locks. Nebraska and Michigan battling for the last spot. If the B1G were to get five, they should both be in. But four seems to be the prevailing theory.

Roll Skers Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Ideally Ohio State gets the 1, Michigan gets the 5... I like out chances against those two way more than Penn State/Michigan State/Purdue 2 Quote Link to comment

Michigan is ranked 20th currently, with a loss to Northwestern this week probably changing that, but assuming they close out the season accordingly, I can't see them getting left out. If Nebraska wins out I think the B1G gets 5. Quote Link to comment

If Nebraska gets in it's because their resume looks better than enough other teams. There's no guaranteed number from each conference either. 1 Quote Link to comment

Bracket Matrix takes something like 80 bracketologists and complies a list of which teams will most likely make the tournament based on those brackets. They're based on what a team has done thus far.
