We're in!!

- Start date
Wisconsin isnt totally dead, they still could back in
Michigan is done 100%
Who were you guys rooting for? Presumably Michigan to knock us out and then hope you win later?
Not when we're battling you to get in the tourney to begin with
I’m sure there’s many angles to all of this. But if PSU is even close to the bubble , which I believe they are ON the bubble … then I want them to lose.
And even if I had no other reasons… I’d still root for PSU to lose . Sorry. No love for that school in PA
No the team that beat us twice. Should have wob @ Michigan and destroyed them at home.
" few results go our way today it may be 95% later tonight" what are the things specifically that we want to go our way? who needs to lose? (PSU is one)
It would be nice but unless they win tonight and next game, there is no way they are ahead of us
The only way we control our fate is to beat Purdue. If we don't there is a chance we aren't in or we are off to Dayton.
Those odds are slim, but they aren't 0.

If Wisconsin gets in, we are wayyy in. We are definitely above Wisconsin, Michigan, and PSU with only PSU still alive to help their resume
Oh really. We are ahead in Net, we have more quad 1 wins and we beat you twice. Lmao
You have been doing this a long time and I admire your restraint, but we are 100% in and not in Dayton . We are a protected 11 or last 10. Any doubt from the committee was squashed. It was a historic defensive effort. Think about this for a minute as I do not think it has ever happened , we held them to 1 field goal for the first 19 minutes of the second half. Has to be a record. The committee now knows why our # 3 defensive efficiency looks like and how it can get us to the sweet sixteen . Plus some uptempo offense or great defense into uptempo offense we haven’t seen since we lost MAG . Go put our resume up against all the 10’s and 11’s. We edge all of them.
Quick reminder/history lesson: The "RU Screw" refers to Rutgers allegedly screwing it's own students, staff and/or alumni due to bureaucracy, incompetence, shortsightedness, stupidity, etc. The RU Screw has nothing to do with RU "getting screwed," which is it's own thing but should have a different name - maybe the RU F**K Job! 
In any event, I sincerely hope this won't be an issue on Sunday evening.
In any event, I sincerely hope this won't be an issue on Sunday evening.You said Penn St was ahead in every metric. I just gave you a bunch you were behind in. You could add Kenpom to a ranking you are behind in. Are you referring to BIG1G standings?
PSU good wins vs bad losses and that is the main main metric. Worst loss is at home to a bubble team.
Give me a break. You said you were ahead on every metrics. Wrong! I just named a bunch. You have two good road wins. You will definitely be behind us unless you win two games in conference tournament
Both teams are in!
This was my point. Both can only move up out of the Dayton BS.
The computers don't mean as much right now when human actuaries are dictating outcomes.
If you have seen TV of the games of late you have noticed that our bench looked down.. sometimes very early in games. Today I spotted Pike working teh bench.. trying to get them UP.. while we narrowed Michigan's lead in the first half.
That tells me that Pike knows that everyone MUST BELIEVE we can win before it can happen.
Today they gave everyone renewed reason to believe before their toughest test to come. Purdue will want revenge and then the Big Ten Championship.

I and my family have so many friends who root for PSU, Syracuse and Duke and it ruins my ability to enjoy hating on them.

that would make me enjoy it more...All I know are OSU fans when RU beat them I really enjoyed it.
Can they play darts and are their wives good looking? Then I'd consider. Only then.
You need better friends. None of mine would date come over or join me me without having adopted Rutgers as their school. They only wear Red.
Think of it this way.. none of those friends would enjoy Rutgers losing (when not playing their team) because they know what it would mean to me and mine. So.. I feel compelled to NOT want the worst for those teams.. though, sometimes, I cannot help myself.
Like today.. so many texts about Refs screwing Rutgers from non-Rutgers fans... and not even OSU-loving fans who hate on Michigan.
