    Why every game matters and the margin between being on the bubble and being locked in is small. IU has lost 4 home games in the B1G. Flip 2 of those 1 possession home game losses and IU is a lock for the tourney already with 3 games to play

    Ohio St and Oregon would be the 2 you want to win. Road win against a team with the second most Q1 wins in the country and solidly in and a sweep of a fellow bubble team. Losing to Washington would only be a Q2 loss which would be IUs first. If they beat Ohio st and Oregon I would really like their chances

    It’s a road win on the team sheet. Most of these things are determined before the season. Penn st willingly gave up a home game on campus to play it there for recruiting. Season ticket holders for Penn st had that game as one of their home games. Now ive seen them change a game during the season however it was changed way before the end of the season.

    And I totally didn’t answer your question. Yeah a couple. Iowa is at 66 and if they fall to 76 that will be a Q2 loss. UCLA is 25 and if they fall to 31 that will be a Q2 loss

    Yeah. Penn St road win is close to being a 2 however if it does it’s still considered a really good road win. Meaning even if it falls to 2 and they are 76 isn’t it going to be viewed differently by committee if they were a 75 and Q1. Hope that makes sense. Still have some Q2 games left to take care of to stay perfect in Q2-Q4.

    Wake Forest lost a home game to Virginia which was over 100 and Wake was 64. Wake dropped to 71

    Maybe a team right below them lost worse and they moved up because of that instead of them losing a game and moving up

    Retro Video Games

    I got all my old video game consoles and games out of storage a couple months ago and have been down a retro video game rabbit hole. Cleaned them all up and started playing some. NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube( my favorite), PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360. Saw some setups and end goal is to have an area where I can display them all and have them all hooked to the same TV. I want to get the rest of the old consoles I don’t have as well. I was amazed at what some of those old games are worth nowadays. I have a PriceCharting App that tells you what the games are actually worth nowadays. Needless to say I got a new hobby or hunting old retro games at Flea Markets, garage sales and other retro game places. I don’t have any too crazy expensive but do have a few NES games I could sell on eBay for over 100 bucks . If you have your old stuff put in storage and you have certain games you could be sitting on some old games that are worth a lot. Most expensive NES game is worth 16,100 loose and it’s called Stadium Events if you had the box and manual it’s in the 32,000 range another one Little Samson is worth 2,200 range just the cartridge and way more with the box and manual. If only you could find one at a garage sale. lol. I’m glad I held on to my old stuff and didn’t trade it in back in the day for new consoles. It’s been a fun hobby to get back into. Any other retro game collectors?

    He was considered a home run hire by 99 percent of the national media and people in college basketball. Most on here thought the same thing. @Joshhowever from the very beginning hated the hire and said he would fail from the beginning. Josh was right

    For sure. However for me there is no nights off in watching college basketball. I will be locked in the college basketball thread watching the battle for first in the SoCon Chattanooga/UNCG tonight at 7 on espn +. IU played them both this year

    Osu ended up winning it. They needed it to stay in the at large picture. They were 15-13 so a loss would have put them at 15-13 not they are 16-13 with 2 games left. History tells you a team better be 4 games over .500 to get an at-large. There have been instances where 3 games over is good enough but not many.

    With their strong non conference wins they will still have a chance at an at-large. Need to win at least 1 of the last 3 and probably 2 of the 3 with 2 of them on the road. Hard to believe they are fighting for a bid after they won Atlantis
