rico Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Seeing as how we have a snowball's chance in hell of making the Dance, who will your allegiance go to? I, as always, will be rooting for the conference teams. But I will be following Tennessee closely hoping that the Vols can get a FF appearance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madison22 Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Just not Gonzaga or Baylor. I don't want the 1976 IU team's 32-0 broken, especially during the Covid season. But if it happens, it happens. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really have the hate for other B1G teams besides Purdouche, so I guess I'd be fine if any of the top teams won other than the undefeated ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdhoosier Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Any big ten team, as I do every year. Even Purdue. Our conference needs a title - it’s been too long Outside of the Big Ten, I’ll follow Gonzaga, but not sure if I’ll root for them. I also like Texas - I’ve always liked Shaka. And then if CAM gets fired after the season I’ll be keeping a close eye on Texas Tech, Alabama, Baylor, etc. plenty of excuses to watch the tourney this year despite the high probability of is not being in it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 I wouldn't root for Purdue or Illinois if Christian Zell was standing beside me revving his dentist drill... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) I would be happy if the entire Elite 8 was made up of Big Ten teams. As far as who among the conference I would most prefer to cut down the nets in the end. That would probably be Michigan. That said, Colgate is going to be tough to beat.

FWIUFan Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Go BIG or go home! If IU can't be part of the NCAAT then I all for those that will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 I’ll be rooting hard for Michigan. I like their chances. They have gotten close in recent years and if you keep getting close you will knock the door down at some point. I don’t see it with anyone else in the conference. OSU, Illinois? Very balanced and deep conference but not great at the top other than Michigan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 I will just enjoy watching the games but will not really care who wins. I know I will root for Purdue to lose their first game. I will hope to see some big upsets and a lot os buzzer beaters. I have never been one to just root for the big ten because that is our conference.

I understand not wanting another undefeated team but it is not like we are the only team that has ever done it. We are just the last one to do it so to me it is not that big of a deal.
