#6 Minnesota +3.5 vs #1 tOSU (ov/un 130.5) Big Ten Championship, Sun 3:30 ET CBS

With the much-improved play of Iverson, Minny has two bigs that can score in the post, and they can play a hi-lo game.

It will be interesting to see how much each team plays 2 bigs at once - I don't think Matta will do much of it, but the Buckeyes could have problems defending the inside. Hopefully Madsen can play as well as he did against Illinois - he was very solid today.

Minnesota is playing awfully good, and were sticking around with teams we shouldn't be.... I figure it's because it's these teams last gasp at a tourney bid but still....

This time of year every team still in the mix will make it interesting. OSU will beat Minnesota down in this game. Mark my words. They are still getting back into a rhythm after the layoff, and they have faced two very hungry squads in the past two days. Minnesota's win over Purdue was nice, but Purdue will not make it out of the first weekend in the tourney, IMHO.

Oh how I would love for the Bucks to beat down Minny... I don't expect that to happen, though.
