2014 Big Ten Tournament Thread

so, according to Illini fans, that puts them on the bubble, right?

Who are you guys rooting for in Purdue/Ohio State game?

 

I'm nervous about Purdue winning because of what that sets up tomorrow (potentially a must-win game).

[49r]

not to steal a0t0w0's schtick, but there's nothing to worry about.

 

We.  Will.  Win.

[Cookie Belcher]

I'm rooting for Purdue because that is an easier game to win tomorrow and I want to win the whole tournament. Also, if we can't beat Purdue we don't deserve to go to the NCAA tourney, anyway. But reasonable minds can differ on this topic. I've heard husker fans with both opinions.

[GoBigRed]

Incredible pace so far. Hope these teams keep running and wearing each other down.

[cwshuskers]

So far Ohio State and Purdue both look bad. Not the best basketball being played right now.

Yeah, for all the running up and down these teams have been doing, it's hard to believe the score is only 13-13.

[49r]

I'm probably in the Ohio State winning camp.  We've likely spent much more time game planning for them, so having a Purdue matchup might leave us scrambling some.

That's a good argument. I would go the other way though. Beating Purdue does nothing for us tomorrow, other than get to the semis. I'd rather see us beat OSU to get to the semis, because it also boosts our NCAA seeding.

 

Since we aren't going to lose, that's the only thing I'll mention. 

 

Purdue 13, OSU 13, under 12 min timeout

[49r]

Purdue up 17-16 under 8.

 

Della Valle (hate that guy) is in for OSU.

Man, that guy hates the Hot or Not app.

[49r]

10-2 run for OSU and they move out to a 7 point lead with 3:38 left in the first half.  Timeout Purdue.

[Jadler]

30-27 osu at half. Craft trying to be a hero at the end with a steal falling out of bounds heave.

[uneblinstu]

C'mon triple overtime!!!!

[49r]

C'mon triple overtime!!!!

 

Quad!

[hskr4life]

Good game....OT OT OT

[Silverbacked1]

Maybe 7 OTs like the final of the Ohio State Hockey Finals last weekend.  The coaches and admins finally said co champs.  Wow was that some unhappy high school hockey players.

[49r]

Purdue leads at the under 8 timeout, 51-49.

 

Craft just got an and one right before the timeout, he will be shooting the free-throw when we come back.

[49r]

Under 4 timeout, OSU leads 57-54.

[GATA]

Either way, I think we're gonna get what we wanted. Both of these teams had to expend a lot of energy today.

[nuled2dance]

What is Ohio state doing...

[49r]

Come oooooooonnnnnnn, OVERTIME!!!

[49r]

off topic, but am I seeing that score right?  Louisville leads Rutgers 58 to SIXTEEN at halftime???

 

Lord, have mercy!!!

[aphilso1]

Yep.  And wanna-be bubble team Utah has 21 points with only 10 minutes left in their game against Zona.

Dear Rutgers,

 

The B1G welcomes you with open arms.  Please feel free to continue to suck in basketball...
