Big Ten Tournament Seeding

[qazplm]

One wonders if there's not some value to using the BTT to give Braden some rest and work in Cox for backup PG minutes and give Heide and Colvin some extended run to build up some confidence for the tournament.

Welp - in the Corn Battle Royale, Iowa prevails over Nebraska (83-68) and knocks them out of the BTT field. Cornhuskers with a meltdown down the stretch, dropped six of seven and torpedoed any NCAA tournament hopes.

Looks like Purdue will get the winner of #14 (USC) v. #11 (Rutgers/Minnesota - the winner of today's regular season finale, currently tied at 50 with 6 minutes to go).

Update/Edit - Rutgers wins in OT over Minnesota, so the field/seeds are set. Oregon game with Washington won't affect seeding.

Purdue actually seems to have landed a pretty favorable BTT pathway. We need to play some and get right and keep the foot on the gas against anyone we face!

Not sure state will get there and I don’t trust state in the actual NCAAT. But then again, I wouldn’t be shocked if no big ten teams make the second weekend. I don’t trust anyone in our conf 😂

Just what the boys need. Four days in a row with no rest.
