SS, Great work this year again with the bubble update and this. My question is who do we cheer for in the MSU/Purdue game this weekend? MSU, Purdue, and OSU are all still jockeying for those three spots and we would get the #3 seed in the quarterfinals. I would say we would have a good chance against MSU and Purdue, with OSU not so much. So, who do we cheer for this weekend so that we don't have to see OSU in that second game in INDY?

If MSU beats Purdue and the league ends in a 3-way tie, MSU will be the third seed (OSU first, Purdue 2nd). MSU is going to be the 3rd seed no matter what unless they or OSU lose again.
 

Assuming we remain #6, it's very unlikely we'd see OSU in the quarterfinals. The Bucks should win their last 2 and will be no worse than the #2 seed.

If you'd prefer to play Michigan State, root for the Boilers this weekend. If you'd prefer to play Purdue, root for Sparty. Assuming Hummel is reasonably OK (probably not a safe assumption at this point), I'd rather play Sparty.
 

Thanks for the info... I guess I am hoping for a sparty win this weekend and OSU getting the #1 seed in the BT tourney.

Seriously sucks. I will be in Florida and I've already checked, our hotel, obviously, doesn't carry the BTN.
