2015 B1G Basketball Tournament

[Bucky32]

Interesting this site has Ohio State as the 2nd highest chance to win Big 10 tournament and Maryland pretty low.

http://www.teamrankings.com/ncb/conference-tournaments/big-ten-bracket/

1 Wisconsin 50.64%
6 Ohio State 17.35%
3 Michigan St 10.07%
5 Iowa 6.23%
2 Maryland 5.56%
4 Purdue 3.45%
8 Illinois 2.71%
7 Indiana 2.51%
11 Minnesota 0.92%
9 Michigan 0.24%
10 Northwestern 0.14%
13 Penn State 0.10%
12 Nebraska 0.08%
14 Rutgers 0.00%

Maryland is the luckiest team in the country this year according to KenPom, I believe. That might have something to do with it. I'm not sure about Iowa and Michigan St. having better odds than them, though. They will be a tough out.

Nebraska had one of the most disappointing seasons in college basketball year. Getting bounced in the first round of the BTT by a putrid PSU team was a fitting end.

I do not know the Pedsters lost a lot of close games this season and the Huskers were blown out quite a few times this season so them losing to their putrid Pedster team is… Shocking

Wow those scUM uniforms are bad. Who the hell thought that yellow stripe on the top of the pants looked good?

I take it you are new to adidas uniforms outside of soccer.

See ya in the NIT, Groce.

So barring a second half collapse it's looking like scUM will take on Bucky. That's a win-win game: either scUM gets destroyed or Bucky gets bumped and opens the door to a tourney title.

The bolded would also be a win.

Michigan really has nothing to play for, they knew this was a lost season back in December/January. When you're Michigan, I don't think playing for an NIT bid is all that exciting. That said, Michigan came out looking like a team that was playing for something. Good for them. Illinois is fucked. Squarely on the bubble and they are squirting a giant turd at the UC right now. Not only are they getting outplayed but they're getting chippy, too.

JFC, illinois.

I talk about useless B1G programs in football...Nerds, Varmints, indiana, ummmm...illinois...but illinois is just as useless in basketball. Massively underachieving for a decade now.

I think Matt Sylvester killed illini basketball.

Penn State up 9 vs Iowa with 6 minutes left this is why you always want a bye when you can get a bye. You never poo poo a chance to get a bye.

Penn State is terrible up 9 and completely go into self destruct mode missing 2 different front ends of 1 and 1's and giving up 3-4 offensive rebounds on 1 play and fouling after blowing a shot up 4 with under 2 minutes left giving Iowa 2 free points with clock stopped.
