I see MSU finishing around a 6 seed. Possibly 5.

Thoughts.

We can't lose too many more.

How many wins do we need to be a lock in the tourney?

I feel like if we're playing well and don't have a stellar record, we still will get in because Izzo.

Problem is, MSU already has two conference Ls to non tourney teams. Was thinking we should sweep these trash OSU and UM teams. Guess not.

MSU still has their top 5 toughest conference games left, imo. Unless you want to say at Minny is tougher than Purdue at home. I disagree because Purdue is a matchup nightmare for us.

I think a tourney bid will be on the line when Wisky comes in for our last home game of the year.

11-7 in conference should make MSU very confident as long as some of those wins are against the better teams. Cuse got the name recognition bid last year and we'd get the same. Beat Purdue and Wisky at home in that 11-7 should do it as long as Minny doesn't implode.Then try to steal a road game vs IU or Maryland.

Makes sense. That Wisconsin game terrifies me. If we're on the bubble and they blow us out, we're screwed.

If we need to win the Badger game to get in the tourney I have no dought we will.
