Big Ten Basketball 2020-21 Discussion (Part 1)

Nebraska mini collapse going on here. They haven’t scored in 6 minutes and are now only up 3 points with 3 minutes left.

Boy they really do not know how to close out a game.

Jones 4 point play to go up 1.

Nebraska is playing like they are tanking for a draft pick…

Had to chuckle when Beilein says, “I assume Fred has a couple plays he likes out if a timeout to score.”. He apparently didn’t watch on Friday

What a terrible, lovely game. Big life, big stage, big ten.

Wow, wild sequence at the end there and Nebraska has the lead by 1 with 8 seconds left.

I feel bad for Nebraska so them winning would be a nice story, but from a B1G perspective I think you want PSU to win. I want as many non-MSU B1G teams in the tourney as possible, and losing to Nebraska at home would probably end PSU’s hopes.

I know PSU has a shiny ranking in NET…I just am skeptical that the committee would take a .500 team from the Big Ten as the tenth team from a conference.

The 1-point margin is the best as a neutral viewer. Any shot wins or loses it.

Good for Nebraska. Good for the kids. It’s fun to see them celebrate.

Bottled water celebration in the locker room?

Also heard this from an extremely plugged former National Scout last week who’s now working for an NBA front office.

I know you might not have the info, but any idea if imminent means “before the season is even over” in this situation?

The guy I talked to made it sound like it was going to happen once the season ended. But things maybe changed. I talked to that guy before the Iowa game so maybe things are escalating.

Did anyone actually check to see if Rocket was on Iowa’s bench in the second half? Might be worth a look

They said he was physically ill so I assume not on bench

Kinda have a weird feeling Minnesota gets their first road win tonight

Pitino vs Turgeon… a real coaching master class to be enjoyed
