They announced today the entire tourney will be head in NC.  Wonder if there are more upsets this year 

IU up 2-0.  Not over but we have only given up 2 goals so far this season.  
 

PSU got the win today against OSU to stay in line with us with only 1 loss

Game today vs Northwestern for a little redemption.

Yep a win today and a Penn State loss or tie puts us in great position for the conference title.  

MSU just gave up 8 runs to lose it in the 9th

Next two weekends are huge.. @MSU for 3 games and @OSU for 4. 

Getting 5 wins out of these games would be huge.  4 would be decent but could cost us later. Hopefully our pitching rediscovers it’s mojo 

Still early but MSU up two runs on Michigan.

And OSU lost so realistically it’s us or Michigan for the conference. Penn States in the mix too I guess but have a very tough schedule. Condensed as well 

Actually I don’t see how they could possibly get Penn States lost games in.  They could make up 1 game but it would only make sense if by playing it Penn state state had a chance to win the conference.  

If they win out it’s a possible scenario.

Soccer is down "a tick" right? Like they aren't top 5, but just top 20? 

I think this baseball team is def top 20. Fun times. 

Soccer is hard to tell they are ranked top 10.  They had a bad loss and haven’t looked great but the lack of any true non conference games makes it hard to judge. 
 

Bad loss was a bit rough.  Other team was happy for a tie and played a high risk high reward strategy that panned out 

Will we win it all this year. Probably not.  Will I be shocked if we make a college cup.  Not at all 

We now lead the big ten. A miracle football year and baseball and soccer being there best selves 

The player was never mentioned on the main forum on BTB

They needed that win, after the embarrassing loss to Northwestern 

Yep.  Need to keep it up.  Would be awesome to get a win on Monday and then have MIchigan and Ohio State tie.

No. 23 IU gets a win 4-0 against Wisconsin to be back in a 3 way tie with Michigan and Ohio State

Control our destiny again. I am a little shocked we fell that far for a road loss to a team that basically just couldn’t play with us and ran with a high risk high reward strategy that happened to come out in their favor. 

Was hoping Rutgers would help us out a bit but Michigan is solidifying their position.

With under 8 to go in the game UI is up 51-38 against UW.  What I don't understand is how UI can keep winning without their top player.  I have been told if you have injuries you shouldn't expect to win games.

I’ve been told that if you a missing a bench player you shouldn’t expect to win games

Watch us beat Michigan 

Possible won’t be easy.  They are good and it will be there.  

I didn’t get to watch afterall but I assume Northwestern sat back and played D until we made mistakes and capitalized on those. 
 

We shot 17 times to their 8 but they got more SOG 6-5.  
 

No reason we should have come out with a loss. Michigan is now in the drivers seat for the conference.  

So glad we are getting this season in. Really felt like we had a good shot this year.  Want that 9th star

Franklin will be a senior by the time Gunn. Gets to campus

It’s up to the individual program to decide if they want to play. Purdue could’ve called off the game last night but CMP wanted to play. 

Interesting to note. If that’s the case and the game can’t be rescheduled it should go down as a forfeit

Umm, the last time Illinois made the tournament was 2013😂😂😂

Would rather not take the Crean approach and just take kids and hope they pan out. 

Quality over quantity, you know.

Wait so Archie gets credit for making the tournament last year by Archie defenders. But Underwood doesn’t get the same benefit of the doubt. 
 

Seems odd. Almost like your biased.

Well this year has not played out yet so just because they are picked to be high it does not mean they will.  Just like people think we will finish lower but I think we will be in the top 5

People with Crimson colored glasses keep saying that. Hasn’t panned out yet. We will see
