Wtf Terps. So, now do we get pissed off Maryland at their place this weekend?

Definitely that odd lull in mid-January where the weather gets cold and things get weird. Which teams are showing up each night 2-3 times in 7 days during conference play. It's tough.

Eh, this kind of stuff happens all the time on the road in college basketball--home team gets up for the game against a ranked opponent, fans get in a frenzy, refs make calls in the home team's favor, and the home team has a lucky night shooting (Michigan shot over 41% from 3 point range). Nothing to get excited about if you're a Maryland fan or Michigan fan. Hell, just last night, #11 WVU won at home against the top team in the land, and unranked Texas won at home against #17 Iowa St., and on Sunday, unranked Clemson won at home against #16 Louisville, a putrid Illinois team won at home against Big Ten favorite and top-25 Purdue. The list goes on and on. Last night's game was no big deal.

Upsets everywhere, that's college basketball. It's going to be tough for OSU to win at MD, but if they can get a split on the road trip at MD and Purdue, it would be a huge boost to their tourney chances.

Rutgers ends up losing by 50. Worst B1G team ever?

I don't know about that....there have been some pretty pathetic Northworstern teams that couldn't beat bad high school teams....

I don't now about that....there have been some pretty pathetic Northworstern teams that couldn't beat bad high school teams....

Very true.....this NW team is the worst of the last 20 years at least. 5-20 winless in B1G play and managed to score 30 points or under 3 times.

Its a very erratic year in college hoops, nobody seems to be separating themselves. If there was sny year for some random non power school to win it. Its this year.

Northwestern gave Maryland a run for their money last night. It certainly did not look like the same Marilyn team that we played this past weekend but also Northwestern looked like they put forth a lot more effort than the Buckeyes did when they were blown out at Maryland. I am not blaming Matta for the lack of effort put forth by Ohio State against Maryland because you can only scream at guys so many times before it does absolutely.

MSU is a mess

I suspect Izzo will right the ship by the time the Bucks play them next month.
