BGVille Hoosierfan Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 I am going to the Big Ten tournament on Thursday and Friday. My feeling is that if I see IU play, they are a lock to be in the tournament because that would mean they had 20 or 21 wins. I am the key, ladies and gentlemen,I will be there Wednesday and Thursday, possibly Friday if IU makes it to Friday. I can’t wait!Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app jk34, Hutch89 and mdn82 3 Quote
RaceToTheTop Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 Florida State leads for a total of twenty seconds as they come back and beat Notre Dame. The Irish had a 61-48 lead before giving up 13 straight points. Seminoles make a put back with 3.8 seconds left to break a 66-66 tie. Irish have a half court shot go off the back of the rim at the buzzer that would have won it. Probably keeps Notre Dame from getting any talk about at large.

RaceToTheTop Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 UPS -- where do you have Oklahoma? I can't see why they are safely in. Bracketmatrix is getting updated now from this morning's ratings and both IU and Oklahoma are listed as 10s, but Oklahoma is rated as the first 10 and IU the last. I simply can't fathom that. Quote

Brass Cannon Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 Would Northwestern or Nebraska be Quad 3 games in tourney? Quote

I would have to do a seed scrubbing to see where they stack up. Probably do that over the weekend Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app BGVille Hoosierfan 1 Quote

Loaded Chicken Sandwich Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 What’s the highest seed line Indiana could make? Say the biggest miracle of the world happens and we win out.

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners I have to think a 4-seed is the ceiling. If we are “ranked” around 35-40th right now, you’d have to think about what we would be ranked if that run of games happened to end our regular season. I think winning those five games against those teams, based on Michigan, Iowa, etc. being ranked 18th and 24th in the AP polls, would move us up into the 12–16 AP ranking if it happened as a part of the regular conference season over the last two weeks of our schedule. So you would kind of think it would do the same or similar if we did it in the conference tourney. Isn’t there some precedent here to look back at? Didn’t Iowa make a pretty Cinderella run of like 4-games in four days to win the conference tourney and go from a bubble team to maybe a 5-seed I’m thinking it was maybe back in the Luke Recker days?? Any historians help my memory here? Quote

They finished 9-9 in their conference and got the 9 seed in their conference before winning 5 conference tournament games and then went on to win the NCAA championship as a 3 seed Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app HoosierDYT and thebigweave 2 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 I’ve thought about this. I think a 5 seed if we win out. I think an 11 seed of we lose out. Just conjecture. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

KzooHoosier82 Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 A win Saturday against Wisconsin ensures a first round bye in the bigten tournament but a loss cements IU as the 11 seed. This game has huge implications on both BigTen and NCAA tournament seedings. Quote
IUc2016 Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 A win Saturday against Wisconsin ensures a first round bye in the bigten tournament but a loss cements IU as the 11 seed. This game has huge implications on both BigTen and NCAA tournament seedings. Definitely has implications for NCAA. But a win on Saturday only ensures a CHANCE that IU will get a first round bye next week. Purdue would have to lose their game on Sunday, or Michigan has to lose both of their remaining games. If neither of those happens, Iu will play on Wednesday regardless of the outcome against Wisconsin.
