Big Ten Basketball 2021-22 Discussion

While I think last year’s Michigan team would’ve done it, will Purdue be the first to win 17 games since IU in 1993?

Purdue is good but Omaha is a terrible team (KP 300+). Let’s wait to see Purdue play a couple of Big Ten games before crowning them at 20-0.

I’m just crowing them 18-2. Who in the Big Ten looks even close to them in your opinion?

Purdue looks good. Probably the best in the big ten. But are we basing this entirely off of a win over a solid, not elite Villanova team and a mediocre Carolina team?

When Michigan beat Villanova by 30 a few years ago, did they run away with a title? Need to be careful not to make grand proclamations off of a small sample size

Just takes an off shooting night for them to lose a game, their defense hasn’t been unbelievable. But they definitely look like the most complete team in the Big Ten right now. I think their depth is gonna help them a lot too. If I predicted right now I would guess they drop four or so games but that still being enough to win the league.

This is based on being lower on the rest of the Big Ten vs any earth shattering Purdue changes since the start of the season.

You’re definitely lower on Purdue than I am. I think they’re currently the only team in the conference without a major roster hole. Sure, some holes on other teams might get filled, but as it currently stands I think Purdue is way out in front of the Big Ten competition.

Iowa 6-0… against, and I don’t even think it’s arguably, the worst nonconference schedule ever scheduled.

Shrewsberry with a head scratcher there

Game’s a blast. PSU’s effort has been admirable.

That was interesting didn’t get the two fouls which they didn’t want and got the tip in

College hoops. Nothing quite like it.

Kofi and Plummer have 32 FGA between them. The rest of the team has 18.
