It's going to be a hell of a challenge to only pick five guys for the B1G all-conference first team this season. I would like to think that Bruce will be chosen, as he certainly deserves it; however, there are 5+ others that also deserve it. Bennett Stirtz, Keaton Wagler, Jeremy Fears, Yaxel Lendeborg and Braden Smith all deserve it, too. What is going to be the tie-breaker in one of those guys not making it? I can see voters not putting Wagler on the first team since he is a freshman, and most of those other guys aren't going to have another chance to make it - that's not a great reason for Wagler to not be chosen, but I can see it playing out that way.

Fuck Jeremy Fears and his bullshit Draymond tactics. We got called for the groin kick on Bynumbut Fears has nowbeen caught 2 other times including a technical today!

What song are you listening to right now

DubCoffman62
Great late 70's, early 80's pop/country. If you were alive and coherent you couldn't escape these songs. The late 70's and early 80's are often ridiculed as not a great time for pop/rock but I'm very fond of this period. It produced some really great music.

One more thing to add, and it’s a bit late but that’s okay. There are three things that are certain in life: death, taxes, and Nasir Bailey’s fear of wrestling Jesse Mendez.
The dude was one stall away from forfeiting and essentially gave up against Mendez for the 2nd time this season. I’m pretty sure he pussed out when Iowa came to town too as the Hawkeyes offered up their sacrificial lamb Kale Peterson in Bailey’s place.

Big Ten honors are going to be voted on soon - who gets Coach of the Year? You have two viable candidates. Dusty May and Fred Hoiberg. I would give it to May because his team won the league by 4 games, but I can see why people would go for Hoiberg. Nebraska was picked #14 in the preseason beat writer's poll, and finished tied for 2nd. Hoiberg obviously was able to get the most out of his team relative to expectations. UM was picked #2 and Purdue #1. Oregon was the biggest disappointment, preseason #5 finished tied for 15th. OSU was picked #9 and finished 8th.

Joe Lunardi is employed by ESPN and is obligated to shill for the SEC so I don't think him having Auburn in really means much. They are gonna have to at least win 2 SEC tourney games to even really be considered.
Click to expand...
Yeah, there may be some of that element, but I think Lunardi is also overrated as a bracketologist. He kind of is a leader being the ESPN guy, but his predictions are actually worse off than a lot of other people who do the same thing.

If Indiana played Miami's schedule, they'd be undefeated, too. I don't care what WAB and SOR say, I realize the committee may consider them, but I don't. Kenpom has Miami rated well below the level of a tournament team, and I've seen with my own eyes Miami Ohio cannot play defense at the level needed to be competitive in a national tournament. They have offense, I'll give them that, but they'll be a really easy out for someone. They'll get in, but it's not much of an accomplishment to go undefeated against terrible competition. If a team was unbeaten after playing 30 games against non-D1 teams, you'd have people and metrics to point to arguing that they should be in, as well.

Id rather see a team like Miami get a chance any day than some proven completely mediocre power conference team like Auburn and Indiana. We don't know what the committee will actually do but I don't believe they will leave a team that finished the regular season out.

If a 31-0 regular season does not get you an at large bid the why even play the regular season ?

The schedule was easy but they won every game.

It be the most absurd thing ever that a perfect regular season would not be 1 of a 68 team tournament. The optics would be awful.

May as well just rest until March and play a 3 game tournament for all mid majors then.

They have created WAB and SOR for a reason to compare mid major resumes vs the big boy resumes

Miami's WAB is 31
Miami's SOR is 21

Akron Zips (Official Thread)

The Weekender: New Mexico Names 32-Year-Old Ryan Berryman Its Athletic Director, Arkansas Will Have Tyson Foods As Its Jersey Patch and Akron Football is Now Bowl-Eligible

New Mexico names 32-year-old Ryan Berryman its next AD, Arkansas reaches a deal with Tyson Foods for its jersey patches and Akron football is now bowl-eligible for 2026.
www.elevenwarriors.com www.elevenwarriors.com

Akron Football Bowl Eligible for 2026​

The Zips received a waiver from the NCAA on Wednesday that will immediately eliminate their postseason ban and remove practice restrictions that were in place for the 2024 and 2025 seasons.

"We are very proud of our academic progress and excited about the opportunity to compete in the postseason this fall," Akron Head Football Coach Joe Moorhead stated.

Akron's bowl ban and restrictions were due to the 2021-22 academic year, when a coaching change and roster adjustments caused the football team's APR to fall below the required four-year average. The Zips, who finished the season 5-7 (4-4 in the MAC), their best record since the 2017 season, were not only ineligible for the postseason, but also forced to decrease their full practice hours from 20 hours to 16 hours each week throughout the season.

Akron is now eligible for the MAC football championship and a bowl game if it gets to at least six wins.

The Zips last played in a bowl game in 2017.

Joey brackets still has Auburn as his last team in at 16-15

No team in the history of the tournament has got an at large bid with 16 total losses which is what Auburn will have if they don't win the SEC tournament.

Will they be the one to be a history setter ?

I know a lot of bubble teams lost but 16-15 should not get you a bid.

They will open with an easy SEC game so they will be 17-15 and if they lose the next game I don't see how a 17-16 team could possibly get a bid.

Going back and comparing Auburn to Miami, I don't think either one should be in as an at-large, unless Auburn makes a run to the SEC title game. Auburn has already lost 14 games and they need to win a lot more to make up for that. Obviously Joe Lunardi feels Miami is the better choice.

I watched this live go back and watch the replay whoever is doing the clock screwed up royal it wasn't until the guy was near half court did it start actually running from the 3.6 it started. I am not sure how someone screws it up this badly as the guy who is shooting it thinks he has plenty of time to get it off when in reality he might not have. Great shot and all but maybe the 3.6 would ran out or maybe he would rushed it.
Sucks for Navy this was their best team since David Robinson 1986 team and they had won 14 in a row.
Click to expand...
Yeah there is a question if he would have tried the dribble behind the back of he had under a second to get that off.
