Big 10 Tournament

[IU Hoosier41 14,465]

I'd be all for playing Illinois. I just don't think this team can string that many wins together. We haven't done it all year long. I will say I fully expect us to go out and beat Michigan now. Because we shouldn't and it will add to the clusterf*ck that this year has been

My only fear is that if we won the NIT that Crean would want to hang a giant banner in Assembly Hall.

He can hang it in his bathroom.

Is there anyway we can work it out that we'll only be facing ranked teams?

Baring upsets, we have the possibility of playing 4 ranked teams in the next 5 games. I think if Indiana beats Michigan, then makes the finals of Big ten Tournament there is a chance.

We have a .026% chance of winning it all. We should win our first game. We will probably lose our second.

You never know. They never seem to fail to amaze us when we least expect it. We'll see what happens tomorrow at Michigan!

I'm more worried about the opening game than a possible matchup with Michigan: Because 2014 Indiana basketball.

Let's get this over with, and by that I mean: let's win this.

Would you rather play Illinois or Minnesota? Those are our only two possibilities now. I say Minnesota.

I don't really care one way or the other honestly. Normally I would care, but this time we need to win the whole thin so the team basically needs to have the attitude of whoever we play we'll whoop.

I think Illinois is playing better right now, so I'll say Minnesota.

My dad and I had an idea here what you do might be a little dangerous you go to all the bars that the different teams are at and you wear every team's shirt and you take one off every time you enter the bar they are in and you have a drink at each one.

I don't think it matters. Illinois, Minnesota, we should be both of them. And thanks for the welcome! :)

So since we should beat them, that means prepare for the worst? Just kidding, kind of.......... just feels like every big ten game where "we should beat" them we end up losing.

Barring a 25 point comeback by Penn State, looks like we'll have Illinois at Noon Thursday.

Here is the list of the bars for all the teams so you can go watch the games on TV if you are in Indianapolis.

Tough draw but if we can get past UI I actually think it's good we play UM. We just played them and we know what to work on. Also, it's difficult to beat a team twice in a week. The only teams that scare me are Michigan State and Nebraska as weird as that sounds. A win against Michigan would be the ultimate confidence booster and could carry us through. I don't think our odds are good at all, however this is our last shot and you know Will is going to play balls to the walls

I actually like our draw.  We get UM IF we win.  I would rather get them than Wisconsin.  Then, if we beat UM, we get either OSU or Nebraska to the finals.  Say what you will, but that is the path that is easier for a Tom Crean coached team.  I would say we would have 0% chance if we were on the other side, because we would have to go back to back days against MSU and Wiscy.  We just have to win.  Plus, I really like how we have played recently for this team.  I think they are close to peaking.  The thing I am worried about is Noah's foot on back to back days or longer.
