This year the Big Ten paid officials to only ref Big Ten games. Didn’t want anything spread from other conferences that didn’t handle the virus as well.Unless I'm mistaken the conferences don't have specific refs. Think they all work all conferences , across the country.
They’ll be just fine. Looks a lot like Arkansas-Colgate. (And not like OSU-ORU.)Great.... now Purdue is gearing up to be the next BIG embarrassment.
Aged well.......I think Wisconsin gets destroyed, they went 0-9 against the top 5 teams in conference this year. Rutgers I think has a decent shot to win.
They're running out of time.They’ll be just fine. Looks a lot like Arkansas-Colgate. (And not like OSU-ORU.)
Home-ish crowd.
Williams is a fun player. Old school.Tied game, 20 seconds left, UNT with the ball.
Purdue might survive, but this sure isn't the position they want to be in at the end of the game.
If people want to say the BIG is overrated, I couldn’t really argue with them.
Maybe the Summit and C-USA are just better than they’ve gotten credit for.If people want to say the BIG is overrated, I couldn’t really argue with them.
Rutgers better turn it up.Poor performance (sans Wisconsin; Illinois grades as incomplete), but don’t sleep on Rutgers. I think they will surprise some folks.
That’s not denying the B1G being overrated.Maybe the Summit and C-USA are just better than they’ve gotten credit for.
I was just being silly. Terrible day for the B1G.That’s not denying the B1G being overrated.
In any case, this is how win and go home goes. In playoff series the story would probably be different. But it’s beautiful this way.
I said I’d root for the B1G teams butwhen The games start it’s pretty damn hard to not root for the underdog
C-USA has won their share of first-round games. In fact, they have won them more often than not in recent years. Take a look.Maybe the Summit and C-USA are just better than they’ve gotten credit for.
Good chance Western KY has the best player not in the tournament. Debatable but might.C-USA has won their share of first-round games. In fact, they have won them more often than not in recent years. Take a look.
The top 4 teams in that conference are usually strong, but the bottom teams just kill their computer rankings.
Western Kentucky deserved to make the tourney, IMO. Their victories over Alabama and Memphis are better non-conference wins than some of these Big Ten teams. They lost a close one to UNT in the CUSA Tourney final so they get to go to the NIT. Turns out UNT is kind of tough.
Does that mean the NET rankings are not accurate?Where are all the Collins apologists that were excusing away his performance because of ‘sTroNGeST sTREngTh oF ScHEduLe EvEr’
One game in the tourney tells us very little.Where are all the Collins apologists that were excusing away his performance because of ‘sTroNGeST sTREngTh oF ScHEduLe EvEr’
Good call. Buttgers seems to be pulling away in the 2nd half.Poor performance (sans Wisconsin; Illinois grades as incomplete), but don’t sleep on Rutgers. I think they will surprise some folks.

That’s the thing. All the teams here are good teams. There are very few team in the tourney that can’t win on any given night.Maybe the Summit and C-USA are just better than they’ve gotten credit for.
Have the champ come from the B1G and the first round losses won’t mean much. As lunker said, every team in the tourney has proven to be a good team.Not the first time I've seen a Matt Painter team underperform in the tourney. I don't know what he does in the way of prep, but he might want to look at some things.
A couple of big black eyes for the league, but the B1G was fun this year. Had a couple of teams upset, but we also had two teams that were 10-10 in the league win against higher seeds.
Do bowl games in football also tell us very little? 🙄One game in the tourney tells us very little.
Illinois did exactly as expected. Michigan and Iowa were the next best teams.Not the first time I've seen a Matt Painter team underperform in the tourney. I don't know what he does in the way of prep, but he might want to look at some things.

Thanks. I didn't know that but they will likely go back to non specific conference refs after the virus is gone., right?This year the Big Ten paid officials to only ref Big Ten games. Didn’t want anything spread from other conferences that didn’t handle the virus as well.
Drexel???That’s the thing. All the teams here are good teams. There are very few team in the tourney that can’t win on any given night.
I like Rutgers to win.
Ohio St, plays in the Big Ten and Loyola, where again? Somewhere in a valley, I've heard.
Kind of a push the first day. Had NTU over Purdue and Oral Robert’s over OSU. Spread. Lost Colgate and Cleveland State with spread.Well, you got one right, but that Wisconsin call doesn't look so good...
Absolute obliteration of North Carolina by the Badgers.
Some teams show up, others choke. The Badgers showed up. The Buckeyes choked.
Houston was the best team in that conference.There's no doubt that Loyola got shafted by the committee. Probably deserved a 5 or 6.
But then they gave Wichita State a play-in game after they won their conference over Houston, who got a 2 seed. That is ludicrous on its face.
I also find that officials from other conferences don’t understand basic goaltending rules. #neverforget
Houston was the best team in that conference.
