Illinois - are they the team to beat?

[New Pal Boiler]

No. Just how teams fall into quads. And that's going to end up changing week to week. But like I said, that's just from what I've seen. Haven't looked at every single B1G team.

Such insightful analysis here, Spank.

I’ll spoil it for you IU. They have the hardest remaining. According to KenPom IU is projected to lose the next 10 as they aren’t favored in any of them. Yeesh.

Oh boy will that be the excuse this year if Purdue wins it all?

It's now official that DP acknowledged it.

Unbalanced conference schedules ftw.

Yea I could see that happening. All but two left are Q1 games. The other two are Q2 against PSU and Washington. Lots of opportunities but for Indiana to make the NCAA tourney they need at least 8 more wins.

Acknowledged what exactly? That IU fans give excuses when Purdue wins the conference?

Saw you were still lurking here. Perhaps you can provide one of your hot takes? Haven’t seen you around since you lasted posted these SCORCHING HOT ones:

Gillis defending Ware in the post would be worth the price of admission.

Would hope the refs wouldn't swallow the whistle in that scenario.

When you rewatch the beatdown IU handed Purdue in Mackey last season, IU extended the lead for a long stretch with Miller Kopp playing the four, so going small is an option.

Reneau is hitting 50% from 3, Ware around 40%, who does Edey guard?

Ace Baldwin turned into a pumpkin since he played Purdue and finally his flopping ways caught up to him. Hurt himself when he flopped when boswell made contact with him. Without ace, that team is absolute cheeks.

Illinois defense is looking much improved.

Now go into IU and crush their souls. Although, Illinois probably will shoot 15% from 3 and win barely (which will make IU fans think IU is actually good). Then when Purdue plays, Illinois will shoot 16/22 from 3 😂.

But yes, Illinois is looking to be a top contender for sure. I am looking forward to them playing Michigan and MSU, just to see how they all matchup.

IU fans have mentioned to me that Lovie....err....Woody has a winning record against Brad. Time to turn that around.

And it seems BU is out to annihilate teams this year 😂
