Basically there are 3 options for us.

Lose tonight, we are the 9 seed, playing either Michigan or Illinois.

Win tonight and Michigan wins, we are the 6 playing the winner of Minnesota vs Nebraska.

Win tonight and Indiana wins, we are the 8 and play a rematch against 9 Northwestern.

Last thing outside a loss, I want is a rematch with a scorching hot Nebraska who would only hurt us.

I think with a win - facing Minnesota would only really spook me, Nebraska gonna be in the 80s NET after today, and will easily stay wthin 75-100 and make our game with them Q2 "if"it happend.

If we were the 6 and could get past Nebraska, I don’t hate MSU as the 3 and UM as the 2 on that side. Avoid Purdue and Iowa until the final. But getting past Nebraska is a big IF. Let’s just win tonight.

I prefer to win tonight and finish 6th (with a Michigan win). We punch our ticket and face MN or NB who would have played the day before.

So for BTT seed we want Michigan to beat Indiana
but for NCAA want Indiana to beat Michigan.

So here, our Debbie Downers will moan either way.
And our sunny skies folks will celebrate either way.

Indiana just beat Michigan, which means Rutgers is locked into the 8-9 game at noon on Thursday.

If Rutgers wins against Northwestern tonight, it will face the Wildcats again.

If Rutgers loses tonight, it will face Michigan in a game with huge NCAA Tournament implications for both sides.

So everything broke right for us to get the double bye with a win tonight had we not choked against Nebraska right? 🤦🏼‍♂️

Indiana is potentially #2 seed?
I don't follow the rest of CBB outside Rutgers and get my info from the board.

Wasn't the general consensus Indiana was going to be down this year?

many thought them and Illinois were the favorites with most Indiana players coming back and two 5 stars coming in. Purdue played above expectations.

We definitely want Indiana to win regardless of any B1G tournament seeding implications. Squash that Wolverine bubble, please.
Nothing I would want more than to beat Michigan and see them not make the Big Dance.
