He’s been clutch here at the finish though.  Most of their team has been. 

Yeah.  Still a loss at the barn.   You rank them.  Nedved will spank them at home.   2 ranked teams lose at the Barn.  IU and Iowa.   IU and Iowa basically have the same resume so far

If we finish the week 2-0 I’ll feel better about making the tournament.  Tomorrow is a huge game.  Not confident.

The few times I’ve watched…seems to me Stirtz is the heartbeat of the team, beyond that they aren’t much, other than having a good head coach.

I think they are a good, not great, unit that plays well together and has a good grasp of the system. IMO upper middle tier of the B10 this year

IU could go 0-2 this week and still make it.

Their best win so far is ucla at home.  Their next best win is a neutral ct win over Ole Miss who was 98th last I looked.   Non con sos 288.   They beat up on 4 300+ teams.   They got plenty of time to improve the resume however up until this point I could argue IU has a better resume so far

To be clear, not pining to be more like Iowa or anything... resume is very comparable for sure. Just think they've looked good when I've watched them. Very excited for our head to head in Assembly. Would that be a Q1 game as of now? Comfortably right?

Yeah.  Iowa is in the top 30 NET so that home game will be a Q1.  7 of IUs next 9 are currently Q1 games

Michigan a team that has won 6 games by 40 or more points already this year just won by 2 on the road to a Penn State team playing without their stud freshman and leading scorer.  Road league games are hard for the most part.   If a national contending team like Michigan is struggling on the road it’s a good bet that most other teams are going to struggle.

Sure they could.   It’s only 2 games.  Realistically they could win  these next 2 and still not make it.   

True but most of us will feel better about our chances.  We drop both it’ll be a STEEP climb. Projected to be heading towards a 1-3 or 1-4 stretch after that.

I’ve seen teams kill it in the first half of conference play and then fizzle out and not make it and ive seen teams that sucked it up and then came on strong and make it.  As long as teams have Q1 and 2 opportunities a team is never out of it.
