2017-2018 Season Notes

Only two B1G teams in the Top 25 seems to be .... down.....
What???  Nooooo...

Wasn't someone saying that before the start of the season?  Hmmmmm

I remember something like "Oh, it isn't the name on the front of the jersey that matters" and blah blah blah.

This is the worst Big Ten I have maybe ever seen.

Miles needs to take advantage of this.  Because Illinois, OSU and Indiana will not suck for long.

 
So, we have one more game till conference play. They are playing better than expected. 

What do people predict for the remainder of the season?

 
Big Ten is the worst I have ever seen it...NU is posed for a minimum of 9 conference wins.  
Really interested to see how many actually get in the tournament.

I think Michigan State and Purdue are locks.

Ohio State is 10-4 but really havent beat anyone good but all 4 losses are against decent teams: Gonzaga, Butler, Clemson and North Carolina.

I would assume Minnesota might build their resume a bit in the conference, but they also havent beat anyone great.

It becomes a cluster with Michigan, Maryland, Penn State, Nebraska and Northwestern. 

My assumption is 4-5 teams, but it will be interested how Conference play shakes out if any team rises to the top.

 
I think 5 for sure...Just because there is going to be a team that finishes 5th in conference.  But as far as guessing who, no clue right now.  

I could see OSU, like you said, getting in.

I keep waiting for Wisconsin to turn it on. 

I think 5 might be tough because of how bad the B1G has looked against other power 5 conferences, but who knows.

If I had to guess I would say:

Michigan State-IN

Purdue-IN

Minnesota- In but will need to make run in conference

Northwestern- In/ last 4

Ohio State- In

Maryland-out

Nebraska- out
