I would be sick if they did especially With the head to head and 2 less losses
I would think they would have to win tomorrow to do that but who knows what the SC will do....
I'll answer this for you.
No.
We'll come back to this thread when IU embarasses Wisconsin tomorrow. Yes i know the numbers, and IU hasn't fared to well, but I think IU is more focused now than previously.
You have to admit, they've defeated more higher-ranked/quality opponents than we have. Sucks writing that, but I can see Bucky getting a 4 and us a 5 now. At worst, though, I think Bucky's gonna be a 4 now. In fact, Bucky could move up to 3 w/UM at a 3 or even 4.
The committee doesn't value conference tournament wins any more or less than any other game. If the Badgers jump MU in the seeding, they were close enough to do so anyway.
IU has a #1 locked up. I wouldn't be surprised if they lose. UM just lost a 2 seed I think.
How Mucj does IU need to win by to prevent the badgers from seed stealing

Probably so...UWs RPI was 43 coming in to the Michigan game. That's quite a leap to a 4 seed...?
Indiana will win convincingly, I'm saying by 15.

Bo Ryan owns Tom Crean. I expect IU to win, but it will not surprise me if they don't.
IU will try to win, however. There is zero love loss between those two coaches. The douche and the prick.

Nolan RPI now has UW at 35 ( MU still at 12 ).

Owns him? Yes he's done well, but let's not forget the teams Crean inherited when he became IU's coach..
I stand by my statement IU will roll by at least 10.
I thought UW was sitting closer to an 8/9 seed? Definitely nowhere near bumping us out of our 4 seed.

Yes, the first few years it was going to a gun fight with a toothpick. However, even at MU he struggled against Bo IMO.

Well, if MU hadn't wet the bed against ND, this wouldn't be an issue.

Most sites have them a 4 or a 5
Swing offense, baby.

Exactly. Not sure why we are obsessed with where UW is seeded. MU made its bed and now just has to play who's in front of them.

Agreed, but the committee uses the RPI more heavily than other sites. I would put them at a 6. If they beat Indiana a 5 and if they win the conference tournament they have a shot at a 4.
In the end too many losses to argue for a higher seed.
Michigan should be no higher than a 3 now and probably a 4.
I'd rather be a 5 in KC than a 4 in San Jose

Tom can't coach his way out of a wet paper bag if Bo's the one who did the watering. I expect Wisconsin to win, I already congratulated some of my Vadger friends on making the Big Ten Tournament final.

hahahaha was that a typo or intentional? Either way, I love it.

We will probably be a 5 seed but the way we play away from home, it might not matter. Terrible....!
No, they didn't. We are still solidly a 4 seed. We were the top #4 until last night. No way we dropped 3 spots by losing to a top 25 team. This board makes my head spin.
It just sucks cause it that game really was nothing to win and all to lose. If we won we were still stuck on a 4 most likely and if we lost we drop? That sucks
which one is the douche and which one is the prick?

Palm just updated his bracket....UW is "up" to a 6 now......Lunardi has them at 5.
MU is a 4 in both.

OK. UW needs to beat Indiana to move up.
ND needs to beat Louisville to move up
Syracuse needs to beat Georgetown to move up
Arizona to win PAC-12 to move up
Going to be a close call on a #4.
Does anybody else think the Big Ten, other than Indiana, is vastly overrated? I don't think Wisconsin is that good, although they're better than when we played them. Michigan seems hot and cold. MSU? Illinois? Ohio State?
If you compare it to the Big East, I think a team like Syracuse (and Louisville) have legit chances to win it all. In my opinion, Syracuse is the most talented team in our league and I just think they turn it on when the tournament starts. I can't say that about anybody in the Big Ten, other than Indiana, and even they seem fragile to me, albeit very talented.
I'm not a Big Ten basher, either. I generally root for them over, say, the ACC. Maybe everybody is just a little down.

Ohio State, MSU and IU are all very good. Michigan can beat anyone, but is up and down. Illinois, same. Wisconsin...smoke and mirrors but their style gives teams fits.
Bo Ryan doesn't get his due. How many more games would they have won if Gasser hadn't blown out his knee? I know it's cool to bash the sucker, but he's legendary.

Honestly, I think they end up with the same record. Maybe even lose a game or two more.

On BracketMatrix, they're a consensus 5 seed--before today's win over Michigan.

He can never go to the Final Four as his system isn't built for it, but he does well.

No, we do not drop! Guess this ridiculous thread was as stupid as I thought.
