Id rather they be confident than hungry. 

If Northwestern wins this, its probably will be the tipping point to get them into the dance.  If they finish with a defendable record. 

Games like these show one of the few problems with Kenpom.  Does not account for garbage time very well. 

Great job Yogi.  With at least 14 more games I wonder how high he can take the record. 

  Ill be bonkers if we continue winning all we should.  That would leave us at 10-1 or 11-0 depending how you view Michigan.  If we pull that off, I will be bonkers.   Right now I just appreciate that we haven't shot ourselves in the foot yet.

Back up by 3 at half.  Fingers crossed.  With a 2 game lead over everybody but Iowa I think we have a real chance to win the Big Ten this year. 

Come on Northwestern, get any and all upsets out of the way tonight. 

Yeah I know which is why I used the past tense. 

So we were sole owners of the record of 18, who is next closest.  Anybody have 17?

  Get all the upset out of them maybe.  Get a little cocky.

  Would be huge to have a 2 game edge on Maryland and a 3 game edge on MSU.  Really a 2 game edge on everybody but Iowa. 

Are we playing good D or is Illinois just missing

Missing the game because a 3.5 gig update on the Xbox and slow internet smh

  Gotta think with that wide a range its not likely we lose anybody, but I guess it all comes down to what the league tells the kids. 

Judging by his play gotta wonder if he wasn't used as an example, plus had the benefit of freeing up a scholarship. 

He disrupted normal on topic discussion.    What are you an alt?

Very excited get to actually watch this game. 

Well if we keep playing D like we have been and Yogi can have 6 good games in the tournament he might just get his NC

Too much trouble for Urban Meyer? Didn't one of his players rape somebody and stay on the team?

There's no need to come into a topic and lol at its existence. Sometimes you disagree with silence.

If Crean resorts to the same tactics I will be very angry. 

  Do you see the irony of this comment.  Coming into a thread and loling at it?

LOL theres a contingent of their fans that want Pearl if Cal bolts, we could only be so lucky.    If he does leave I just hope they miss on the hire.  So as not to steal somebody from us if we need them.   

Come on a Duke to help our resume and come on Rutgers because lol Purdue

Basically I am saying he is a net negative on the court. Sure might score 18 points but he easily hands those 18 and more back to the opposing team with his pathetic D. And I would expect a sophomore guard in a high powered offense to have more assists than turnovers. So he really only helps our offense with his scoring. Which as previously stated isn't enough to overlook his pathetic D. And the James Harden comment was to illustrate how pathetic his d is. It makes harden look like he's trying.
