Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 I didn't realize Brandon Roy is Michael Porter's HS basketball coach. Yup very respected in that area as well. Saw he coaches for free as a way to give back to the kids.Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

This is not a good Wisconsin team yet they are right there for a B1G championship because of coaching. IU shoulda been the class of the league this year. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

OliviaPope40 Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Gonzaga I think is going to go into the big dance undefeated and I think that if you put them in a bigger conference their record would be completely different if they were playing better competition. Quote
Uspshoosier Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Gonzaga I think is going to go into the big dance undefeated and I think that if you put them in a bigger conference their record would be completely different if they were playing better competition. Yes they would have more losses then they do now but they are good enough this year that would compete for the conference title. This team is really good and if they played in a bigger conference they would be better prepared for a NCAA tournament run. They should of scheduled a non conference game with a top 25 rpi team in the middle of their conference season just to play a really good team. The last good team they played besides st marys(debatable if they are a good team) was dec 3 against Arizona without trier. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersYeah I agree here I think the Big Ten is really down this year. I don't think any Big Ten team has a legit shot to make it to the final four.

Great PG, shooters, Dodd down low for rim protection. That Northwestern game really impressed me. Cowan is a huge x factor too. I know expectations were low for them at the beginning, but Turgeon has done a great job there since coming to the B1G. Wisky might have a shot depending on matchups too. Purdue with no legit PG probably doesnt make it past Sweet Sixteen.Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

WayneFleekHoosier Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 That being said, I think 3 of 4 could be ACC. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
Hoosier Guy Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Yeah B1G is trash this year. And yet, there could be 7 teams that make the NCAA tournament lol. Wisconsin, Purdue, Maryland and Northwestern are locks. Michigan State and Michigan should be in if it started today. Minnesota is the wild card. Personally, I don't think they deserve it. But the first 6 teams should make the dance. As for the Final Four talk, no way in hell any B1G team gets to Phoenix Quote
Str8Hoosiers Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 So who is going to win the B1G Regular season? Are we going to fall back behind Purdue in the Count? Currently 3 tied (Maryland, Wisconsin, Purdue). Maryland & Wisconsin play each other so 1 of them definitely gets 1 more loss.... the other I believe could win out... Purdue doesn't have much left unless we make a miracle in Mackey to ruin their hopes (wouldn't that be great), or @ Northwestern.... Quote
Uspshoosier Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Purdue and Wisconsin do if all hands on deck. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersAgree Wisky is the team I would say has best chance. They might be going through a stretch right now but come tournament time I wouldn't want to play them. There is something to be said about tournament and final 4 experience which wisky has. If it's a close game give me Koenig taking the shot. He is a big shot maker. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

Watching a B1G game then flipping to ACC is like switching from Jr. High to high school games. It's embarassing how bad this league is this year. Purdue is the only team that I think can make a run and they need their guards to play out of their minds for that to happen. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Alford Bailey 1 Quote

This is what they do in the regular season. We'll see if they can make it happen when it matters Quote
