Could/should have had a lead but Tilly couldn't handle the fastball passes cleanly. Now Pitt back up 6.

Diebler needs to rein in Mobley. Terrible sequence. Put Cupps in.

Pitt certainly would be a bad loss. You can overcome a bad loss, but you have to really earn your spot in the tournament by knocking off a handful of really good teams.

There are definitely are some formidable B1G squads. There are several that seem to be top-25 quality or close to it - Purdue, UM, MSU, USC, IU, and Illinois. Purdue, UM and MSU are all legit Final Four contenders. Right now I would put OSU in the second tier group along with Iowa, UCLA...

Sparty is looking really good and just beat North Carolina for their 3rd ranked win on the season (following Arkansas and Kentucky). Izzo has put together a deep & well-balanced team, and they're obviously going to be a factor in the B1G.

Yeah Maryland just got demolished 2 days in a row against Gonzaga and Alabama, giving up 100+ and losing by 33+ points each game. The Terps are definitely having a down year, in part because their leader Rodney Rice transferred to USC.

The Wolverines are going to get an extra $1 million in NIL for winning the championship game. So a total of $2M to spread around the team.

Is it too late to get a home-and-home started this season?

oof

I should add Kansas did come back and beat a ranked Tennessee team after I posted this, but the point stands, Kansas had not beaten a ranked team in the event prior to being placed in the top-4 of the event - which is the only group where you actually get more money than the baseline that every...

I think part of what Iowa State and their fans are upset about is that Kansas was awarded the 3-4 place game (which gives the players on each team hundreds of thousands of dollars in extra NIL money) in spite of "only" beating unranked Notre Dame and Syracuse, while Iowa State beat Creighton by...

Southern Cal took the Maui Invitational championship over Arizona State today. The Trojans are going to be a problem in the B1G this season.

Players Era Festival has Michigan-Gonzaga for the championship. The top-4 teams in the field, as judged by such varied data as AP ranking and margin of victory within the Players Era festival, also obtain additional NIL funds, with the champion taking an extra $1 million. Iowa State is big mad...

The Smith kid coming in 2026 is from UA. Colin is from Ottawa Glandorf.

There was a report he will be re-evaluated in early December. I don't expect he will play until after New Year's.

Chatman is a pure shooter, the problem is he is turnover-prone. I don't know if OSU can persuade him to change his role, but if they could turn him into an off-ball shooting guard, he could help this team.

Seton Hall looks terrific against USC. I think USC is going to be an NCAA tournament team, but Seton Hall has athleticism, length, quickness and effort all over the court.

Rutgers is in the Players Era festival, they got boat-raced by Tennessee today. OSU will participate in the Players Era the next 4 years. https://www.thelantern.com/2025/09/ohio-state-to-join-players-era-festival-in-2026/

Big 12 just signed a new deal to link themselves with the Players Era festival, which guarantees $1 million in NIL for each school that participates. UM and Oregon are involved this year. Oregon just lost to Auburn today & I believe UM will play Auburn tomorrow in the event...

The winds of change are a blowin. Value City Furniture has filed for bankruptcy. The expectation is the naming rights of the arena will be changed in the future. The facility itself could be renamed also, but it's less certain...
