I know these rankings are to date when I unfortunately see Ohio State sliding down in the coming weeks. I know that in the Iowa game thread MaxBuck disagreed with me about how much the loss of Crater is going to mean to this team. I will admit the loss of Lighty is greater but the loss of our backup PG will play a significant role unless PJ can really step it up on offense from what I saw last year. Offult will be able to play some PG but that is not his normal position. He is more of a 2 guard.

I pretty much agree with the rankings but I think Wisconsin will come up as the season progresses and, as I have mentioned, I think we will slide a little. I also think that Illinois could be a surprise team and finish in the top 3-4 at the end of the season.

Saw the majority of that game of the Purdue/Illinois game and Ohio State is really going to have to step up their intensity if they want to play with these two teams and the rest of the Big 10 or a could be a long season. These guys played awfully hard especially on defense.

Half
Northwestern 25
Penn St. 21

-Penn St. is shooting 24% with 8 turnovers at the half.

Offensive struggles early in Minnesota- but game has completely opened up the last 5 minutes. Matching buckets back-and-forth.

About 2:00 to play
Mich St. 28
Minnesota 22
