My dad was a freshman at the U and went to every home game in the student section. He turns 84 this summer and had to give up his season tickets after COVID. I fear you are correct. :(
Big Ten gets 4 berths, including 2 regional hosts or first time ever. Thank you Pac12 schools. Still hope their addition will help the entire conference in the long run.
It's baffling how it got approved because if one simply thought about it for more than 30 seconds they would have realized the issues it would cause.
The current format has 12 teams and 15 games from Tuesday through Sunday. Here's an alternative that would accomplish the same goal of 12...
I agree with you and I also hope I'm wrong. Wolves played as solid of defense as they could against OKC in the first half and ANT/Randle were money. But the theme of careless turnovers, poor bench shooting and refs keeping OKC in the game via the charity stripe meant we only led by 4 when we...
If Fleck had the success against Iowa that he's had against Wisconsin, the hate from their fanbase would surpass that of the skunks.
But I love that Sconnie hates him.
That's just not realistic. College baseball is a regional sport and NIL combined with the increase of full scholarships from 11 to 31 (?) means the deck is stacked against us. When the SEC comes calling, it's hard to afford to keep kids home consistently. The standard needs to be upper half...
I went C.
He got an A- for the non conference. There were some quality wins there and taking 2 of 3 at Arizona State is no joke .
But conference is a D. Injuries really hurt and he can't be blamed for the lack of depth. But they absolutely should have been better than 16 out of 17
Case in point. Illinois beat Michigan 6-5 today.
Tomorrow Illinois plays UCLA. If UCLA wins, they will clinch the pool with a 1-0 record (Illinois would be 1-1 and Michigan 0-1), making their game against Michigan on Wednesday absolutely meaningless. How could the conference be so stupid to...
Was reading today that the pool tie-breakers in the Big Ten Tournament (should every team go 1-1) is the higher seed. How dumb. Basically if you are not the highest seed in your pool and you lose 1 game, you are screwed. They should have done "Runs Allowed" or "Run Differential".
