Na, everyone else loses games too. Whoever wins this conference (and at least makes the semis of the tourney) gets a 1 this year. Especially if it's Ohio State due to quality wins. I don't have my KenPom subscription, but I figure expectation of 3-4 losses for Ohio State left. If they do worse, sure. If they do better, they are a lock.

Kentucky is pretty much a lock for one. UNC or Duke will likely get another. Depends what Syracuse does, then you have the last one, which probably will get from the Big Ten. If everyone beats up on everyone too much, perhaps Baylor/UNC/Duke get it.

Purdue lost to Alabama in Puerto Rico

Ohio St-1
Michigan St-2
Indiana-4
Illinois-6
Michigan-7
Wisconsin-7
Purdue-9
Northwestern-11 after win today.

I don't think Michigan will have the wins to end up top 4. I'm just hoping Indiana can stay top 4 to get sent to Louisville where they will have huge homecourt advantage. I'm really nervous about IU at Nebraska on Wednesday. Does Nebraska have players playing now who were injured earlier this year?

probably close. Only play Ohio St/Michigan St once so not going to have a big win over one of them.

Still don't think the Illini are 6 line material --- by end of year 8/9 range

they are running uber hot in close games
Big Ten Basketball 2011-2012 Quote

of course, I'll be really happy if the Illini can keep up with the close wins

last year, losing those games gave them the poor seed and they ended up out in the round of 32 despite playing some good basketball late in the year due to an awful match-up against a 1 seed.

Hoping to get up to the 6 line or better to get a sweet 16 shot

I should hang out and eat/drink someday when you're marathon'ing the games.

Then, again, I still have to watch a game with IlliniLou at Roundheads.

Of course, I'm football first. Out of town for the next 3 weeks or so. After that...
