Back end is loaded

Fortunately for us, the three main contenders all have backloaded schedules.

MSU: iu, @ILL, PU, @Mich, @MD, Wisc, @Iowa, Mich

Mich: PU, @OSU, MSU, @Neb, RU, ILL, MD, @MSU

PU: @Mich, Wisc, @MSU, @iu, UCLA, RU, @ILL

I’d lean towards Michigan having the easiest schedule left based on the number of home games remaining, but Purdue also plays one fewer game maybe allowing for more rest.

UCLA and Wisky are trying to make some noise and join the party.

Well that looks daunting.

Furst things Furst.....That Mich game sets the table though. If we can D it up again vs there normally careless ball handling, we will win. But something tells me they will be extra angry and ready for us. Look for a great game this time.

Purdue is NOT going to turn them over like they did, I do believe and Wolf is going to have a better game. I look for a dogfight, but would be happy to have a comfortable win...or any win for that matter. ;)

I have no positive feelings about this game. Oldest son told me he has tickets. Every time he has gone to a game in the state of Michigan, Purdue has been run out of the place. Told him that if it happens this week, I'll be seeing our attorney to redraw the will!!

Yes., that 8th game is already in the win column for Purdue.

Going 5-2 over the final 7 will likely win it. Split the road games and win out at home. Splitting those road games will not be easy either. 3pt shooting will need to come back from the dead.

Agree that Michigan probably has easiest schedule, which is why getting this one Tuesday would be huge W to start this final stretch.

Michigan worries me the most against the Boilers, followed by Illinois. I just don't think msu can keep up with Purdue's scoring. UCLA is hot now, but they are at Mackey.

Probably not a popular opinion here, but I think the Indiana game will be a collasal challenge as well.

Indiana might be a broke team now, but I expect them to throw everything at Purdue in a last stand to salvage something from this year.

I don’t think it’ll be easy by any means. Hope they’ll be beaten down so bad they don’t try but I doubt that. Still a tough place to play and we need to go in and take care of business.

Florida just passed by us and took the first 2 seed according to Lunardi. That 1 seed is looking tougher and tougher as days pass by.
Just get the 2-3 seed in Midwest. 1 seed would be cool and I think if were to win out, we’d get it. SEC will get 2 one seeds. Don’t believe they deserve a third but if they do, oh well.

If we can get the Midwest bracket for 1-3 seed then we are in a good spot (hopefully 😂)

Maryland and Illinois will give them trophies well. Hopefully Dylan and Ace show up when they play Michigan

5-2 down the stretch would be a very impressive finish, given the schedule.

I think the number of home games is offset by Michigan having by far the worst home court advantage of the 3 schools.

I just know they will fix or reduce the problems they had and Wolf will be ready to go. I think they have the easiest schedule...and hope Purdue doesn't lose a big to fouls. IU game concerns me as well. Nothing easy going forward, but Purdue can dictate the results and that is good

Tomorrow night is huge. Lots of season left but the winner there takes the lead.
