Selfish play by Boie there.  Looked like he decided he was going to shoot it no matter what.  Wasn't even close to having a good look.

Too bad he wasn’t able to lodge his forearm in Coleman’s chest for some space

See the difference in the last offensive possession? Buie wasn’t attacking Ill like he was us. I wonder why?

Because he wasn't going to get the call on the road?

And just like that, Purdue now clinches the Big Ten Championship with a win against us…

Maybe the Illinois players have bad breath.

In terms of the Big Ten standings and IU trying to get a double bye --

currently IU would be the third seed given the 3-1 record against the teams tied (IU, Illinois, Maryland, and Michigan).

However, that's a very tenuous lead.  If Northwestern ends up in a tie with IU, it hurts IU's seeding because of it costing pretty much the tiebreaker with any team involved (except Illinois and potentially Michigan or Iowa).

Essentially IU needs to win their remaining home games and need Rutgers to lose to either @Penn State or Northwestern and IU is getting the double bye.

Or need Maryland to lose 2 of their final 3 games (NW, @Ohio State, @Penn State).

Michigan State still factors in, though.  And the Spartans have the easiest slate left -- home against Ohio State, at Iowa, at Nebraska, and a home game against Minnesota that the Spartans are trying to make up.  If they got 3-1 against that group they would also be 12-8 and unlike IU, own a victory against Maryland which helps them in a tiebreaker.  It would help IU if Northwestern stays out of the tiebreaker.

You are correct. They are only a factor if Illinois loses to Ohio State this weekend. So as long as Illinois doesn’t falter against the woeful Buckeyes, then IU is in great shape.

I only count 7 steps, but the point remains the same.

Is that Michigan State/Minnesota game expected to be made up?  I assume they would have to rearrange other games next week since MSU is scheduled to play Tuesday and Minnesota not until Thursday.

Xavier was up 19 at half at Seton Hall.   Seton Hall on a 12-1 run to start the half

Stetson was down 1 with 10 sec to go and the refs called a ghost foul with 2.1 sec to go.    Kid only hit 1 so they are going to OT.  Lipscomb should of won in regulation 

[Uspshoosier 46,002]

Liberty has taken control with 5 min to go. Kennesaw st up 11 at half.    If they hold on they share the ASUN regular season and get the 1 seed in the tourney because if tie breakers
