Indiana Screwed By Missed Call on Northwestern's Game-Winning Shot (thebiglead.com)

Pleasant read this morning. Now, if we can just get someone to hypnotize C.J. into believing the rest of our games will be played in New Jersey, and make sure K.T. gets some electrolytes before each game, who knows what will happen?

Terps 73, NU 69- I'm going to keep picking against the Huskers as long as they keep winning, if that makes any sense.

I appreciate the analogy but continue to favor the descriptive term, "Misfit Toys", to characterize our team.

Historical note of the day: Rutgers was named for Col. Henry Rutgers, a revolutionary war figure and slaveholder who became wealthy by brewing beer. Originally beer was served with meals at the Student Union free of charge. I will even add a reference for those who wish to read more on this subject: Review: 'The United States of Beer' by Dane Huckelbridge (journalstar.com)

We should try to schedule them for next year. Should draw a big crowd.

Rutgers 72,NU 62 I'm on a reverse jinx roll!

Enjoyed reading this thread. Game ball to Cip today. If Chucky had hit that shot at the end of regulation, I would have predicted the exact score. Never have I been so glad to lose.

MISFIT TOYS BEFUDDLE BADGERS! Hoorah, boys, you did a good.

I doubt Michigan will score today!

Bizarre story of the year. I'm sure the full tale will eventually become known but at least Teddy Allen was not involved. Fun fact of the day: Old Jimmy attended the opening of NMS's Pan American Center on Nov. 30, 1968, and the Aggies first NCAA tourney victory there over BYU on Mar 6, 1969.

Big 12=expansion by dilution. And do the Big Ten and Big Twelve names have expiration dates? Just wondering.

Walker and Tominaga are fun to watch and the Sams had some moments last night. In short, it was a more interesting beating than watching the Verge show.

UW 64 NU 60 Since this one is winnable, I'll try my reverse jinx again.

Michigan 74 NU 64 3

Seems like the new bête noir to blame for lack of success is named Nil. (please refer to Boeheim,James)

PSU 66 NU 61

Subtract Greg McDermott's 59-68 record at Iowa State and they would be even better.

Come on HHC: someone is going to have to step up and take one for the team. (just not me)

A bad week for Humpty Dumpty too.

How about those Chiefs!

This demonstrates that we are leaving no Stone unturned.

I decided to vote so we could keep Sam - providing we don't lose all the rest of our games. Viruses and injuries have definitely played a role in Hoiberg's lack of success thus far. Let's hope the transfer portal is fruitful for next year's effort.
