not SF/SG

we have a bunch of undersized PF’s who can’t play SF. We actually need a guy like Turner

I could see him playing a point-forward type, but think he lacks the quickness to keep with most 1s and 2s defensively at the NBA level.

what is going on with the Badgers?

idk, but they look incredibly lifeless. Never seen Bucky play this way.

They always play hard and fundamentally sound, that’s why I begrudgingly respect Bo Ryan. But this is embarrassing.

What’s more sad is I think the Gophers are more talented than both Illinois and Wisconsin.

no

we still need to win today and tomorrow. If we lose to OSU in the championship I still think we’ll be OK.

I'm not sure why Ill is considered more of a lock than we are

Our RPI is higher, we beat them head-to-head, we have more wins, we have a tougher SOS. They just finished one game higher in the B10 standings. I don’t get it.

more bad losses for us?

I know they lost to Utah State and Bradley was it? We lost to Portland, Miami, by 78 at Michigan, and at home against Michigan.

But you’re right. Hasn’t the committee taken a team with a worse conference record over a team higher up in the B10 standings before?

Penn State last year

they had a terrible SOS and no big wins. I think Minn and Mich were behind them in the standings.

Big wins and Bad losses are about equal between Ill and us. I really don’t get it. I e-mailed a national blogger and asked him his rationale and he said Illinois passed the “eye test” while Minn didn’t. Translation they have recognizable players and we don’t. But that really doesn’t matter.

We have to win today and our RPI will continue to go up.
