2 airballed 3s in the first 4 minutes. Why do they keep taking those shots?

I can't believe it took 32 minutes to figure out that it's easier to make shots when you're closer to the basket.

Bad shooting games happen but the shot selection has been horrible. They give you 30 seconds for a reason. If you take away the bad shots with time left on the clock they'd probably be shooting closer to 35-40%. Still not great but they'd have the lead.

https://247sports.com/Season/2021-Football/CompositeTeamRankings/?Conference=Big-Ten We're well behind Ohio State, Michigan, and Wisconsin. 4-9 are tight and we're not all that far from 4th or 5th but even if we were 4th, I would consider that a B. They'll be playing other Big Ten teams, not...

B. It's the best in a while but still slightly below average in the conference. I think an A would be for roughly top 3 in the conference and top 10 in the country.

If it's the same thing as previous years where the team tells recruits they need to decide by x date or they might not have a spot on the team, I don't see the issue with that. How many jobs let you take months to decide whether or not to take an offer?

No way they should change the rules. Teams were starting to get close to that 3 missed games number earlier in the season and no one had an issue with the rule until Ohio State was at risk of missing their 3rd game. I also don't think they deserve to make the CFP no matter what happens on...

The line seems high if the Gophers are mostly healthy and low if it's mostly backups on the line. What was happening on defense before wasn't working so I'm not sure how much worse it could get. If the offensive line can't block it could get ugly quickly though. 10 days to get past the point...

The rules to qualify for the championship game were clearly laid out at the beginning of the season. If they don't play another game, they don't qualify and shouldn't get in. In a reversed situation where Indiana ended the season 5-0 and OSU ended 7-1 with their only loss coming to Indiana, I...

The conference isn't allowing fans even when state and local governments are. Wouldn't have made much of a difference here with a limit of 1500 but I know Indiana and Ohio are both allowing around 12k fans per game. Purdue and Ohio State could legally host fans but the Big Ten won't let them.

I'm guessing the LA Bowl will be cancelled because that's the only one in California other than the Rose Bowl left. The Guaranteed Rate Bowl, Arizona Bowl, Military Bowl, and Duke's Mayo Bowl are probably the next most likely if cases keep increasing but all three states have allowed fans at...

Weren't they also clear that the conference basketball tournament would have fans back in March? Or that the season was still on back in August? Or that the decision to postpone the season wouldn't be revisited back in September? The conference changes previous decisions as things change. If...

It could have gone either way. It's not a bad call but it also wouldn't have been a bad no-call if they didn't call it. I'm glad they tried to keep the rules consistent throughout the game. The rules shouldn't change in the last few minutes because the refs are too afraid to throw a flag. If he...

It sucks to see the streak likely break but this would have been an ugly game and it's great to make it even harder for Wisconsin to make the championship game. I hope they change the format of the final week so this game can still happen then. This game would get much better TV ratings and...

He looked a bit early and PI would have been valid there but I like it when they let plays like this stand. PI should be for more blatant things where the receiver doesn't have a good chance to catch the ball. He broke up the pass and got there a bit early, not because he got there a bit early.

The city/area as a whole doesn't matter. There are two measures they look at, test positivity rate and population positivity rate. Test positivity rate is total positive tests divided by total tests over a 7 day rolling average, where 2-5% is orange and over 5% is red. Population positivity...

Time for Rossi to go. I understand there's a lack of talent on defense but that was bad. A defense full of walk ons should be able to hold Maryland to 600 yards. If Fleck keeps Rossi, every poor defensive performance for the rest of the year is on Fleck.

Doesn't make sense to kick if the defense won't make a stop.

Game's not over yet. Still a chance for them to get to 700.

Hey the defense did something!
