Letting this IU team go on a 23-3 run is pretty brutal. Last 4 minutes of the game took 25 minutes to play out which was pretty miserable to watch!

Yeah refs were awful on both ends

Frederick injury is big for Iowa, hopefully he's okay. They're harder to defend with him spacing.

Bad, very bad!
Wait Missouri is up on Tennessee at the half? *glances at stats, sees a bunch of unsustainable stuff*

Well it was a hell of a half at least.

Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
UVA had to survive an attempted game-winning buzzer-beater 3, but survived against Georgia Tech. They'll have to be better to beat Syracuse next. If they win that one though they're definitely dropping the VT game in Blacksburg.

GT meanwhile is shaping up to be a very weird and awkward team to play against this year, Pastner might actually backdoor them into the tournament. They haven't been since 2010, the second longest ACC drought behind BC not getting a bid since 2009 (which will most assuredly continue this year).

Looks like much less of a problem now that Sharife's out with foul trouble and maybe a tight hamstring or something?

this refereeing has been a complete joke tonight. give me a loving break. really not sure why mizzou doesn't just run straight into auburn players to get touch fouls, if they're gonna call it even

missouri missing another 8+ points on easy layups/dunk misses. tilmon 3 of 11 from the line, shoot even 55% and it's a whole different game

The Big Ten is such a meatgrinder this year. If you go .500 in the conference this year you're gonna be at least a 6 seed in the tournament. That's how good it is.

Yeah probably but they're still solidly the #2 team in the conference and are looking like an easy 2-3 seed in the tournament.

Also the 5 second call on illinois was bad and wrong, the goaltend reverse correct and the travel no call also correct

Arkansas only 1-6 from 3 in the first half but in a knife fight with OK state. Moses Moody missed a free throw and then gave up a tip in off an inbound play with .6, shoulda been down 1 but down 4. Should be a fun second half in the Eddie Sutton Bowl

With Penn State beating Wisconsin today, Michigan State is now last in the Big Ten. (Except for Nebraksa, who aren't going to beat anyone and shouldn't count.)

Hope so! But I figure we're going to get dumb record-focused bias again.

Rutgers isn't the same team they were in December, when they were shooting like crazy. They're basically back to the 2020 team again, playing insane defense, and blah but acceptable offense. But they've seemingly righted the ship at least.

Purdue blows it, late 5 point lead, up 1 with 40 seconds to and dribbles out the shot clock for a terrible shot, and can't secure the offensive rebound to win it. Big thanks to Bo Borowski for calling a travel on Brandon Newman on a step back 3 and not calling Jaden Ivey getting hammered for an and 1.
