Now root for Iowa and Minnesota if they both win we will be ranked 11th

Well, UCLA is up by 22 early in the 2nd half, so I feel pretty good that we're going to be in the BTT. Tomorrow's Nebraska-Iowa game will be extra stressful for those fanbases.

Why will it be stressful for those fan bases/ Aren't both in now that USC lost?

That is not true.

If Rutgers and Nebraska win (49.6% chance), we will be the 13th seed facing Nebraska with a matchup against Wisconsin if we win.

If Minnesota and Nebraska win (23.4% chance), we will be the 14th seed facing Minnesota with a matchup against Purdue if we win.

If Rutgers and Iowa win (18.4% chance), we will be the 13th seed facing Minnesota with a matchup against Wisconsin if we win.

If Minnesota and Iowa win (8.6% chance), we will be the 15th seed facing Ohio State with a matchup against Illinois if we win.

I want that 13th seed matchup whether it's Nebraska or Minnesota, so go Rutgers!

No, USC is in regardless. If Iowa loses they will be 6-14 with everyone else being 7-13 or better. If Nebraska loses, they are out because they lost to Rutgers, Minnesota, Iowa and USC, so they don't have the tiebreaker over any of them.

Thanks for the info.

Scenarios where we go Nebeaska or Minnesota, then Wisconsin, then UCLA are all to my liking.

I am going by what Smelly wrote in the other thread about this below.

How do you figure that?

You might have been looking at the line in that thread where NU beats Maryland.

If Iowa and Minnesota win today, NU gets the 15th seed like Cappy said above.

I predict unlikely since both teams are playing away games.
