  It will be IU vs OSU for it all
• NilesPacMan

  Really excited for the tournament. Saturday should be an excellent day of basketball, especially if the top seeds hold. The games would certainly rival the excitement of the Final Four games.
• Heretic

  

  Hell, Friday will be a great day of games. Both early games have a ton of potential to be classics when you have Indiana vs. Ill or Minn (who've both beaten them this year) and the 4-5 match-up (assuming lightning doesn't strike twice with Penn State vs. Michigan).

  With the way Purdue is playing they could make a good game with Ohio st

  I voted for Purdue to win it all. As crazy as this season has been, we may as well have a non-qualifier sneak into the tourney and screw an otherwise deserving team. I would love it to see Kentucky forced to do the play-in game.

  Kentucky sucks but they will make the tournament because they are Kentucky. :thumbdown:

  Minnesota erased a 9 point deficit, and we now have a close game. Minny up 2.
• Laley23

  

  This game was awful for 35 minutes. Then both teams started to play. Heck of a finish coming up. Law of Gus never dissapoints!

  I lost audio! 20 seconds left, tie game, Gus on the call, and I've got no audio!!

  Sucks for you, he is killing it.

  Gus is the shit

  Minnesota you suck....after all of that

  Godfuckingdamnit
• Laley23

  

  Brandon Paul...what a shot, what a performance. That was truly Kemba-esque!
  
  Glad its Illinois. IU with a chance to redeem themselves.
• se-alum

  

  Matta could take a pointer from Groce in last second situations...put the ball in your best player's hands!
• vball10set

  Someone better talk gorocks off the cliff--how do you let Paul (of all people) take the last shot???

  Because Tubby is a rancid pile of shit. That's how. Great inbounds plays.
• Fly4Fun

  

  The end to that Illinois/Minnesota game was great... you have to love a game that comes down to the last possession with Gus Johnson.
  
  Penn State is playing with some confidence against Michigan to start out the game, can lightning strike twice?
• Fly4Fun

  

  Early time out by Michigan after an 8-3 lead.
  
  Penn State is making sure to feed their big men early.
• Fly4Fun

  

  Penn State got out to a 14-3 lead, now UM is making some buckets and look like their intensity has picked up.
  
  14-12 after a 9-0 run.
• Mohican00

  

  PSU still in it at half
• sleeper

  

  Minnesota might still be in, but they needed that win to solidify it. I don't see how you can put Minnesota in over the Illini; book it.

  Big Ten with 9 teams? I think both are deserving for sure.
