I couldn’t see us beating Wisconsin , but I agree with you.If Caleb is out, I can't see us beating Michigan.
Arkansas (predictably) destroying Georgia now too.Tennessee isnt that good. Their profile is all about awesome early season non conference wins but they are trash in the SEC
Because of that ridiculous bogus NET of 3 they are almost guaranteed no worse than a 4 seed
A&M pretty much all but locked in now
Missouri over Mississippi State
So 2 results not good for RU seeding
Thought you said earlier that we wanted Mizzou to win?
Indiana looking good against Sparty early
Ahhh old friend Nick Honor gets it done for Missouri
Home court advantage showing as B1G Ten season nears conclusion.There are too mamy teams with 9-7 record to make any predictions as to final league rankings and NCAA seeding.,Indiana could easily finish 11-9 in league
Six wins last night so one above the expected. Virginia Tech is the big loser of the night but they were on life support to begin with. Pittsburgh, Texas A&M, and Arkansas all basically locked themselves in, plus Missouri if they were not there already. The two Mountain West teams avoided bad losses. Texas Tech is now in the conversation but I still think they need 2 of their final 3.Today on General Bubble:
(7:00) Tennessee at Texas A&M (43%) - The Volunteers have been handing out Q1 wins to anyone who needs them: Florida, Vanderbilt, Missouri, Kentucky. Will they do the same again here? Texas A&M has won five in a row and blazed past other bubble teams who are taking one step forward, one step back. A win tonight virtually locks them up despite two Q4 losses.
(7:00) Miami at Virginia Tech (49%) - Put simply the Hokies need this win and a win at Duke on Saturday to have any life at all. I'm ready to drop them off completely with a loss here.
(7:00) Mississippi State (45%) at Missouri - Interesting for both teams but more importantly a Q1 chance for the Bulldogs who are right on the bubble. 3-6 against Q1 looks a lot worse than 4-5 and that's what's at stake here. If Missouri took a loss here it would be their first outside of Q1. That by itself wouldn't put them in any danger but they end the year with three landmines (Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss) and two on the road. If they drop this, lose one of those three, and don't get a win in the SEC tournament then they could easily drop from the 8 line down to Dayton as other schools collect quality wins.
(7:00) Georgia Tech at Pittsburgh (88%) - Georgia Tech has been playing slightly better as of late and if not for a late-game collapse at Wake Forest would have won three in a row (four if you count D-2 Florida Tech, which you shouldn't). They dealt Virginia Tech a big blow, but that was at home. Like Texas A&M, Pitt probably has enough to overcome two Q4 losses -- they've won at Northwestern, at NC State, vs Virginia, vs Miami, and swept NC State. But why tempt fate?
(9:00) Texas Tech (37%) at Oklahoma - As I said yesterday Texas Tech needs to get to 18-13 which means going 3-1 in their final four. Considering one of the games is at Kansas, they'd better win this one. Oklahoma needs to win all four of their remaining games to get to 17-14 and have a puncher's chance.
(9:00) Georgia at Arkansas (89%) - I don't expect any issues here but the Razorbacks can't get caught looking ahead to road games at Alabama and Tennessee up next.
(9:00) Utah State (73%) at Wyoming - Utah State has their finale with Boise State circled as a chance to finally grab a Q1 win, but first they've got to win road games at Wyoming and UNLV. This one shouldn't be too tough as Wyoming is both bad and injured, but the Cowboys did sneak a win over New Mexico.
(10:00) San Jose State at Nevada (80%) - Another Mountain West team that can't afford a loss. The hard part of the Wolf Pack's schedule is done, so they're in survival mode now as none of their four left are against tournament or bubble teams.
Eight games. 5.04 expected wins.
Off the board:
Indiana at Michigan State - A loss here would put the Spartans below .500 in Q1+Q2, plus they have a Q3 loss. They're not in danger of dropping out thanks to six Q1 wins, but worth checking in on for seeding purposes.
Congrats to @bac2therac! You're linked on the home page!
I don't think it's a good thing. Ohio State has three home games in a row coming up. I bet they wish they had one or two of those earlier.Yeah root hard for Wisconsin tonight. It looks realistically like the best chance of all the seeding impact games. Gives us that extra Q1 win but also big for seeding. They did pull off the win earlier against Iowa. Does not seem like a good matchup up for them on paper but.....
How did Wisconsin pull of three home games in a row late in the season. I dont think any of their games were rescheduled. No one can ever tell me there is not some shenanigans that go on in the off season.
oh when you mention Ohio State do not get me started...how many straight weeks have they been on national tv either cbs or fox, what an embarrassment, You would think in this day and age there can be some flexible scheduling bases on how the season evolves.I don't think it's a good thing.

Thank You!!!oh when you mention Ohio State do not get me started...how many straight weeks have they been on national tv either cbs or fox, what an embarrassment, You would think in this day and age there can be some flexible scheduling bases on how the season evolves.
The Big 10 stuck it to Rutgers because of that Michigan State MSG fiasco considered a home game. So RU has to "travel" and yes the travel to NYC is small in distance but requires the same kind of itinerary for a road trip not a home game at the RAC. Then they send RU on the road against two of the expected top schools in league at Indiana and Illinois
These things do not happen by chance.
Also RU drew Purdue early in the season 2 straight times. Whether there is an advantage to playing them earlier I dont know, RU also got Indiana early too. Those were the two biggest games of the season and they happened in 2022.
No one can convince me that of all people that Izzo does not have the most clout in the league. I saw they had a full week off to prepare for RU at MSG. Just a coincidence..no way.
I’d prefer to imagine beating them.Imagine drawing Duke or Kentucky in the first round
Likely in Birmingham as well.Imagine drawing Duke or Kentucky in the first round
Would be great if we can get into that 7th seed and it really is on us to just win. I have to imagine if NW keeps winning and so do we that our home game against them will be so crucially important and epicImagine drawing Duke or Kentucky in the first round

Sir, may I suggest not clicking on the bracketology thread if it upsets you this muchLiterally thousands of words written about seeding as if we are already in . Hell, we'll have big problems winning any of our next four, especially with the injuries. Where do guys get the time to write these novels-- does anyone work anymore( real work) ?

How did Iowa, NW and Wisconsin get 3 home games in a row and we almost got 3 away from the RAC( MSG game against MSU) and no other team got that benefit that those 3 got and no one got the shaft or rather tougher course than RU.Yeah root hard for Wisconsin tonight.

Some are slow work wise in the winter. Spring summer and fall. Lol.Literally thousands of words written about seeding as if we are already in .

Will be interesting as Iowa wins 3 in a row at home , tough ones against RU and Illinois but wins and then goes on the road and loses by 20 to NW.
Now NW wins 3 in a row and tomorrow night starts their 3 out of 4 road games. Let’s see how they do.
Finally Wisconsin , losers of 4 of 6 or 6 of 8 , get 3 home games to get right.
The BIG 10 never stops doing amazing things.
You’re acting like they lost at MSG. It was 100% a pro Rutgers crowd and was a good environment for Rutgersi think there was some scheduling stuff at play with the Northwestern/Iowa game being rescheduled but otherwise agree, seeing alot of breaks for certain programs and obviously the msu, indy, ill trio of away games for RU is concerning especially because then it was RU away at Wisconsin...plus before the Minny game, RU was at Iowa...that makes 5 games away from the RAC out of 7....to end the season RU plays 7 of 10 games away from the RAC
I know some had orgasms here about msg and playing there but in reality 7 of 10 away from the RAC is a screw job
Some people are passionately interested in things you’re only mildly interested in. And because you prioritize your interests over the authors’ as being more important (ie better), you get to rank them below yourself within your hierarchy of values. Your statement was made for the purpose of boosting your own self esteem, which means you’re insecure. It’s like venting, it feels better as you’re saying it but immediately afterwards you go back to being angry. So in the end, you’re still the same insecure person you were before. Maybe you can’t get laid, or maybe it’s because you feel unappreciated by your coworkers, I don’t know what it is, nor do I care. The only thing I do know for sure—due to your post—is that you’re an insecure bitch. Now go back to whatever it is you do, because apparently it’s sure as shit superior to those of us enjoying this thread.Literally thousands of words written about seeding as if we are already in .
