As we await the end of the Wisconsin game, current B10 record is 6-3. Wins for Purdue, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, MSU, and OSU. Losses by Rutgers, Iowa, and of course indiana.
but really only Purdue and Michigan had what I’d call good wins. Illinois barely won, MSU really struggled to put Davidson away, and OSU was meh. Our game against Wyoming was ugly. We’ll see if Wisconsin can hang on but they’re getting all they can handle from Colgate.
In the ncaa tournament it doesn’t matter how you win, just survive and advance. No matter what Wisconsin does the B10 will exit the first round with a winning record. But it feels like this happens every year- B10 gets the most teams in, looks like shit, gets 1 team that goes deep, but no title. Hard to believe it’s been 22 years since a B10 team won a National title.
is it the grind of playing in such a tough conference? Conference tourney wearing the teams out? B10 teams overrated? Curious to hear everyone’s thoughts.
