All things Big Ten Tournament thread

[WindyCityGopher]

With the 11 seed we’re on a path to play 3 teams we’ve beaten this year (all at home). I’m sure the very short bench will pose a challenge in back-to-back (to back? to back?) games, but let’s keep this entertaining season going!

Any chance we get JCJ back? For those who have been to games, is he in a boot? Limping?

Boot last night.

It would be one heck of a story if our gang of 6 was able to make a run in the Big Ten tournament.

Every team we could play until the semis we have beaten. Not saying we'll get there, but there's a path. We'll need to jump out early against UCLA and MSU if we beat Rutgers. Hoping both are a little rusty. MSU specifically.

Peacock sucks.

Perhaps the BTT games won't be as low-fi as the Regular Season, assuming they use the same production aspects that will be on the BTN starting Wednesday night.

I won't know. Things to do until Wednesday evening.

Ope, can you confirm whether Peacock sucks or not? It seems as though there is some ambiguity on the board. Please verify.

I can’t confirm since I don’t have it and probably never will.

If Peacock were a nut sack, Jeremy Fears Jr. would kick it.

The thought it will have to endured for a good chunk of MLB games and perhaps Timberwolves playoff games is even more infuriating.

I likely will just skip the whole ordeal.

In Peacock's defense, Fears would kick anything if it were a nut sack

Who sucks more, Peacock or the Wilfs?

Who sucks more, Peacock or the Wilfs?

That's a really tough call.

Gut feeling right now, the Wilfs. However, if some Gopher football regular season games (road) get thrown on Peacock that would definitely sway the voting.

Feels inevitable.

All the Wilfs have to do is win a few Playoff games to reduce my ire.

$2 beers.

They know that without that gimmick there will be 2,500 fans in attendance every game. They’re desperate.

UNI just won the MVC as the first team to win 4 games and the championship. Now it’s our turn to be the first with 5 in 5 in the B1G (making it to the weekend would be fun and maybe give us a shot at a Crown?).

If you have a dirty sock or stuffed animal that willed the Panthers to victory, I’ll be glad to shove it in my carry on to Midway today!

Have a good trip.

In December I flew into Midway for the first time since 2015. I was surprised how much they renovated the airport to bring it into the 21st Century.

The games listed today to be on the Drew Peacock network are also being aired on NBCSN if you have that with your provider

MDW and MSP TSA lines seem to be moving OK unlike some other airports

Norm Green still sucks.

With that gimmick there will be 5,000 and 4,000 of them will be drunk.

Oregon explodes for 12 points in the first half.

Oregon did not score a basket until 8:46 left in the first half

3-22 overall in the half
