2014 Big Ten Tournament Thread

Those are buckeye fans

Northwestern trying REALLY hard to put Iowa in the NIT, still up 2 with about 10 minutes left.

 

As much as I'd like to agree with you about Iowa and the NIT, they are a lock for the NCAA tournament (as sad as that is).  Not sure how but no matter whether they win or lose tonight, they are still going to be dancing.

[HuskerCager]

Wow, has NW hit this many 3's all year?

[nuled2dance]

Friday will be very tough. I believe but I also wonder if our guys are ready for a neutral court pressure packer tourney....if they are then awesome. If not I hope we get kinks out before the dance. I truly believe we are in the dance either way but at what seed is in question

The bubble has gone well for us thus far, so we don't have a lot to worry about, I don't think.

 

As far as the tourney atmosphere goes, I agree. This is a nice warm-up for the NCAAs.

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

We need to show up and play hard we should be okay.

[nuled2dance]

Illinois fans scraping for anything

[The Coach]

I love how much the announcers are talking about Coach Miles and our team during the Iowa game.  

[aphilso1]

Love seeing the hawkeyes arguing with each other.

[GoBigRed]

We better not be seeded below Iowa in the tournament.

[nuled2dance]

Man ...if Iowa loses this game...that would be another bad loss and they would have lost six of seven correct or no?

If the article about the selection committee guy watching and following is close is true...how do they get in. If your Flordia State Stanford etc aren't you crying foul or even the gophers?

[nuled2dance]

My concern is these guys are hyping this up so much today....I do like that the team flew tonight and is en route to hotel. Block out as much hype as possible

[HuskerCager]

Iowa 2014 = Nebraska 1996

[Tallbaby21]

Make your free throws Cats.

[trickey]

I never realized the smell of dead hawkeye could travel through my TV.

 

Whoever pulls them on Sunday...will be smiling.

[Norm Peterson]

Somewhere, Mike Gesell is kicking himself.

[throwback]

IoLa is a dumpster fire.

 

Their RPI has to be around #60 now, not quite sure how the selection committee justifies taking them.

[kleitus]

IoLa RPI is 54 after the loss.

Somewhere, Mike Gesell is kicking himself.

 

And missing, ba-dum-tish.

Just arrived in Indianapolis. Great to hear Iowa lost!

Hopefully the Husker fans show up tomorrow!

A little bit worried it won't be a big crowd.  This whole thing hit a lot of people unexpectedly.  Hopefully enough time to get a big crew for the dance.  Hope I am wrong and Husker Nation brings it tomorrow.
