Big ten tourney

TOsu is choking to Purdont right about now.

Good. I will publish my official list of B10 I like the most ranking down to the least some point. I definitely like Purdue more than OSU.

I eagerly await your opinion piece.

OT... tOsu is scoring again. Probably pull it off.

Has Steve published his opinion yet? Is it posted somewhere else? I don’t want to miss it!!!!

Steve has promised to post a lot of things and has never delivered.

There’s so much truth in your post.

My 2021 Big Ten Rooting Interests (subject to change)

1. Michigan State - Greatest school in the NCAA
2. Purdue - Matt Painter is growing on me.
3. Wisconsin - If their style of basketball wasn't so boring to watch they'd easily be #2.
4. Illinois - Upset that they fired Lovie during the midst of the most fucked up season ever but whatever there's still plenty to like.
5. Rutgers - Seems like a fun state college to go to. If their FB team catches fire their fans are great. They bring it.
6. Minnesota - Just a classic loveable bottom feeder B10 program that you hope has a magic season at some point but it will never happen because it is Minnesota.
7. Maryland - They moved up after their coach stood up to that hot head Juwan Howard.
8. Penn State - They used to be in my bottom three but they've grown on me. All my interactions with their fans has always been positive.
9. Nebraska - Bunch of dopes and I can't stand their football team. Enjoying every second of their football programs demise.
10. Iowa just something dreary about that school. Can't really put my finger on it but every time I watch a live event there's just an awful dark negative vibe emanating in the atmosphere of their sports facilities.
11. Indiana Hoosiers - Nothing and I mean nothing more nauseating than that shit stain Bobby Knight. Text book definition of toxic masculinity and can't believe anyone looks up to him. I would have had them second to last but since they finally woke the fuck up and fired him I give them some credit.  
12. Northwestern- Academics and sports are just an awful mix. I hate all the schools that won't recruit top talent with mediocre grades. Fuck these schools and if they are too stupid to operate this way then it's on them when their football teams lose.
13. Ohio State - It's always a great day when they lose.
14. Michigan - It's an even better day when they lose. Nothing more nauseating than listening to some jerk off brag about how elite this institution is and how their overrated sports are a god given privilege to play for. The fab 5 worship underscores what a dumb ass cult these fans are. Fuck UofM

I can get behind the Illini

Going off my chart I’m happy with the outcomes today. I’m with Nordic I’m all in for Illinois to win the Big tournament.

Rooting for the Illini

Me too. I almost wish U f M had won yesterday so the Illini could destroy them again.

Seeing calls for Archie Miller's head. I wasn't on board with the Lovie firing and I'm not on board with this. This was not a normal season just relax everyone save your money on the buy outs and the signing bonuses. If he sucks next year send him packing.

It seemed to me Illinois was mentally soft when we beat them a couple of weeks ago. They didn’t handle the heat when things got close. Today against tOSU has done nothing to change my mind in that assessment. They don’t handle pressure well.

I didn't watch a second of the game but seeing that Illinois won in OT I think it is safe to say this didn't age well.

The Buckeyes coach is such a douche.

Not really. From the time I started watching, Illinois blew a 10 point lead. They gave that up, then lost the lead. They had time to run a play at the end of regulation, but went for a 3-pointer from about 26+ feet. They did better in OT, sending OSU’s offense into disarray. So the Buckeyes wilted at the end, but for a #1 seed, Illinois proved again today it doesn’t handle pressure well.
