It's almost that time-Big Ten ACC Challenge

[WoodyHayes1951]

I have no idea what's going on. Is this bowling?

The sport the Big Ten cares about the most.

Sad, but I believe it's true.

It's ok. we're pretty good at it. Illinois should be in the sweet 16 every year but we don't count them.

Not sure if being serious . . . .

I think I am correct in saying more schools in the Big Ten get excited about bball over football.

Illinois? much more for bball.

Indiana? obviously

Iowa? Historically it is a bball school. Either way, its close.

ann arbor? football but Basketball has a ton of support

Sparty? yeah, bball.

Minny? bball

Nebraska? football.

NU? doesn't care either way but they pack the arena for good bball.

OSU? football. Support bball well. not great, good.

PSU? football

PU? bball.

Wisky? Football but they support bball as good as almost anyone in the conference.

I see only 3-4 schools that don't support bball well. I can see 5-6 in football.

Did Penn St. really have to play NC St. in the challenge or was that a separate game?

Separate. It was a tournament quarterfinal in another country. Puerto Rico I think...?

^^^^^

I agree.

I think that Minny vs FSU game is the toughest to pick.

 

[Ratt Mhule]

6 tonight and 6 tomorrow, correct?

 

[Mavric]

Iowa gets rolled by VaTech 95-79. Michigan and Minnesota looking good so far. A nice 10 boards for Chadron grad Elliot Eliason for Minnesota.

Huskers just getting ready to tip on ESPNU (as if you didn't know that already).

 

[Mavric]

The "key" for Nebraska according to ESPN:

Ray Gallegos "Must hit shots".

I feel enlightened.

 

[Omaha-Husker]

I love the way Indiana plays basketball.

 

[Ratt Mhule]

B1G taking ACC to the shed so far. Now NW just needs to pull it out and we take 5 of 6

 

[Mavric]

Huskers and Hoosiers running away with things. Looks like NW will lose but 4-2 B1G on the first day is pretty good.

 

[Ratt Mhule]

Indiana is good. Thats all

Roy Williams is f'ing pissed!
