The question wasn't about finishing .500 in the league. It was about making the tourney. Do I think we'll make it? Heck no, let's make that clear. However, there will be multiple teams that finish under .500 in the B10 this year that dance. That's a given. 10-12 teams that will be in the running in a 14 team conference... Do the math,.I would absolutely do that but I would try to burn 4-5 seconds first.
BTW, I don't why Wheeler was in the game late. He's our worst FT shooter. Of course Harrar, Sessoms, and Jones all missed front ends down the stretch.
Especially when tacking an OOC Quad 1 win on the resume.
Iowa and Illi we have no chance against with the matchups. Short of them, we can hold a competitive game with any (like we did, losing by 4 @ UM and in OT @ IU).
If I had to bet, I would bet on 5 wins this conference season (5-13). However, you never know. The middle and bottom tier teams we can compete with.
