Someone posted a very concise list of what happens with the tourney seedings based on different teams winning or losing today and tomorrow's games. I can't find it. Can someone post it here?

I am guessing we want the following:
WIsc - L (obviously not a guess on this one)
Maryland - L
Mich - W
Iowa - L
OSU - L

But which one is the most important for us to get a better seed?

Really, I just want us to win and Iowa to lose and MSU and Maryland win. Then we get the 4 seed and MSU is opposite bracket.
 
It seems like the best scenario (though maybe not likely) is Indiana over Maryland, Michigan over Iowa, OSU over MSU (not likely, but it is in Columbus), and us beating Wisconsin. That puts us at 2nd in the B1G, giving us a double bye, and playing in the opposite bracket as MSU.

The most annoying part is our seed will be the last one settled, so our fans who are considering single game BTT tix will have no clue which Friday or Saturday session to plan ahead for until late Sunday night. Might affect our fan turnout, esp if we end up as the 4 or 5 as tix for that session are already skyrocketing with one local team already locked in.

OSU is AT MSU and they are getting buried.
Side note: It's been a long time since I've seen a player like Mickey Mitchell get significant PT at OSU. They have absolutely no depth this year.

FYI Purdue can be a 2 if IU, UM and OSU win. OSU is currently down 20 to MSU so a 3 is possible. A 4 is most likely while a 7 is possible.

We need UM to win. If we win we are a 4 seed. If UM loses we need an IU win to get a 4. Of course Purdue needs to win.

We will have a great turn-out, don't worry about the turn-out. We will outnumber pretty much all comers

Loving was the only player on the court who wanted to play. It was embarrassing to OSU fans (I have one here who is screaming).... probably knocked them to the NIT where OSU will probably play LSU for all the marbles when all is settled. It will be an exciting NIT this year. Loving will have 30 in that game with Simmons at 34, 12, 9
