I don't know if it was a flop. Edey had a leg behind him a bit when he pushed him over. I am no Mulcahy fan but Edey gets away with a lot.

Parakeet Jones Posted March 11, 2023 Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) Go Buckeyes. It's not that I'm afraid to play Purdue again, or want OSU on game 5 in as many days. I just hate Purdue.

It’s really hard to beat a team three times in a season, but I do think we match up well with Purdue. I don’t care either way, really. BUT, an IU/PU B1G Final would result in a lot of eyeballs watching our team right before the NCAAT. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a stat the other day that refutes the being hard to beat a team 3 times. Can't remember the actual percentage but it was around 65% of the time the team to win the first two wins the third. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder when you dive into the numbers how many top team in the conference vs. bottom team in the conference scenarios play into whatever the percentage is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 65% stat is inflated by teams beating up on Louisville level competition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rico Posted March 11, 2023 Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 I would be curious to how many times in our history have we beaten a team 3X in the same season? Michigan in '76 and...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoyeCowbell Posted March 11, 2023 Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 Hard to beat a primetime IU/PU III Showdown for a Conference Championship on national TV when everyone is watching.

My first thought was that he was correct, but as BTN's #1 analyst, he probably should not say that. Then, I realized the weekend games are on CBS, so it's a little better since he won't actually be on the call. But, still, if I'm the OSU or PSU coaches/players, that would not sit well with me.

IU Scott Posted March 11, 2023 Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 https://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/page/bracketology/ncaa-bracketology-2023-march-madness-men-field-predictions Still has us as a 4 seed but changed us to the West region. I can't see why Tennessee is still on the 3 line because they haven't played well lately and lost one of their best players. Maybe if we win the BTT we could knock them down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpiderMonkey Posted March 11, 2023 Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 The IU seeding likely won't change if they make the championship game win or lose. The bracket is likely set already, so long as they play Purdue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best parts about Hummel as an analyst is his use of common sense. I get that he has to be impartial in his role, but at the end of the day he's human and not a robot, so it's nice to hear commentary that is honest if not obvious. If you took these exact same four teams and swapped football for basketball, the answers would be opposite. It's not a slight, just fact. Come on IU & PU, GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that’s conventional wisdom, but I wonder if an OSU/IU game would bring higher ratings. The IU//PU game would be big in IN, but OSU has a much larger fan base than PU. OSU win and in is a more interesting story to the casual fan. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
