wonder how much money you would be up if you simply bet the under or 2nd half under in all their games

this osu-northwestern game is a joke, neither belongs in the tourney

I do believe Northwestern handled Florida State rather handily earlier this year.

[secondbase]

a question for yall: Can you name this conference ?

Wins over:
Louisville
UCLA
Duke
MVC champs ( by 19 points )
A record of something like 6-2 against the b12 with while playing the likes of KU, Missouri, Texas, and Oklahoma
However they lost in the ACC challenge , although it was fairly close.
of course you know it is the b10.
I looked at this figures rather quickly so don't blast me if I made a minor error. Agree, some of the games have been tough to watch, but the b10 has fared well against others.
I just put the whammy on them for the tournaments now didn't I ?

That pretty much proves my point. The 9th place team in the Big Ten beat up on the 4th place team in the ACC....lol.

Not a Northwestern fan here, just defending the conference.

People always bash on the Big Ten in football as well. Big Ten is just about defense and people want to see scoring.

It just kills me how people think it is so terrible and hard to watch. Louisville wins 62-59 last night and that is a great game because it is in the Big East. Ohio State wins 52-47 and it is slow, ugly, and boring. Apparently 22 points total is a world of difference.

I'm a Big Ten fan in football and basketball and I will never win an argument here. People are all about scoring and that is not the Big 10. Basketball is about defense and fundamentals.

Big East has a good mix of low and high scoring games. Louisville can win low or high scoring games, can't say the same for Big Ten teams.

ok well if you really want me to go into depth about I will, your talking about a team that was very inexpiereced (i.e starting 3 freshmen) and this was the first true road game of the year, Florida St was a dog in this game, led at the half by 3, and let northwestern stretch it out with 5 min left in the game, we were also playing without Derwin Kitchen who brings a lot to Tony Douglas, I dont think many people understand how far this team has came, I know one thing is that Northwestern or any team outta the Big Ten outside of Mich St would touch Florida St at this point of the season whether its a your place or ours and Mich St couldnt come to our place and win.....Dont even put into comparision A win in November against a team starting 3 freshmen on there first true road game of the year to the team that Florida St is today!!!!

Very valid points, I agree with most of what you said. However, if you think MSU is the only team that would even stand a chance against Florida State and that they would also lose, well that is a joke. Granted, they could probably beat any team in the Big Ten on a given night, but it could go the other way also. Florida State is not North Carolina!!

If Michigan can beat Duke why can't they beat Florida State?

OK, is Florida St. going to be allowed to play in the big dance?
