2015 Big Ten Tournament Game Thread

Pretty good game between Michigan and Wisconsin so far.

Nah Michigan is playing us on BTN.

As usual vs Wiscy, no UM fts in the first half.

Does anybody know what kind of balls the BTT uses? I know the home team supplies their own balls (adidas, nike, UA) in the regular season, but what do they use on a neutral court?

[djsalway 4,161]

Michigan now up 3. Crazy turnaround.

I think it's a Spalding. It looks kind of crappy too.

I can't wait to beat the crap out of Wiscy. Hate them so much

Travis from PSU is seriously impressing me.--> HEART

[Crimson and Cream 5,858]

Penn St. giving Purdue all they want and more

PSU playing great. Any chance a loss bumps PU off the bracket? Lunardi thinks there is a chance. I say, nah.

[TheWatShot 14,518]

Purdue will win this game. Tired legs will catch up with Penn State in the second half.

That would be hilarious if we got in and PU did not.  I think Boiler fans would lose it.

 

I would like to see PU play Kentucky in the tournament.  An interesting matchup that I think PU would end up losing.  But I mainly want Purdue and Kentucky to play because IU fans would for the most part be rooting against Kentucky and nothing would get under Purdue fan's skin than IU rooting for them because they're playing our bigger rival.

I was just thinking the same thing... Came on here to specifically post that question.... If they lose are they out?

Could the 3rd place Big Ten Team not make the dance while the 7th place does? I know the schedules are different, the teams they played as well as who they lost to and who they beat are different but just bases on the win/loss and the standings that would be very odd to me....

[Hovadipo 58,171]

Lunardi just said that if you're close, the out of conference schedule plays a huge part in the selection and Purdue is sub-200. He said he wouldn't want to be in their shoes if they lose.

Darn Purdon't just took the lead.

In 2005, IU finished fourth in the Big Ten with a record of 10-6. Iowa finished seventh at 7-9. Iowa got the call while we stayed home. Of course, our non-conference record was 5-6 while they were like 11-1, but there is some precedent. 

[TheWatShot 14,518]

And just like that, Purdue now in front. I miss the days when they rolled over after getting behind. 

[Hovadipo 58,171]

Raphael Davis just took out Gregg Doyel on the sideline. Maybe he isn't so bad after all...
