Yeah, I think so. Their only hope for the NCAAs is to win the B1G tournament, so getting the double bye would be a big deal.

If Michigan beats Wisconsin on Sunday, Ohio State will be out of contention for 4th, because Michigan has tie-breaker over Ohio State.

That game starts an hour before ours, so that might be settled by halftime of our game.
