The next three games are critical

@Mich
Wisconsin
@MSU

Win these three games and the banner is ours.

I’m assuming that if we lose one or two that we really want to beat Michigan as MSU has the tougher schedule.

Michigan State is the most important game. We have the tiebreaker already with Michigan. From a Strength of Schedule and seeding perspective MSU is the highest ranked plus its a road game so it will help more giving us the higher seed

I'd say we basically want them to split. Then we have to take care of business ourselves.

Agreed that Mich is more important to get done. Msu has a murderous stretch with their easiest game left at Iowa. Would be great to go 3-0 but getting the first two are the most important to me.

No such thing as a tiebreaker for reg season title. Tiebreaker is used for B1G tournament seeding though.

Win one of the two road games and beat Wisconsin and that's a good result.

Losing the road games and beating Wisconsin is not great but not end of the world.

Losing all three would make it very tough to win the conference

My gut thinks Purdue has a better shot of winning at MSU than at Michigan.

Purdue curb stomped Michigan in Mackey, and Dusty May could be auditioning for the Indiana job.

Speaking of, the game in Bloomington could be big, too. Indiana will no doubt want to send Woody out with a rivaly win. I have no idea what the Hoosiers' mental state will be by then.

Hopefully we have won all 3 going into Bloomington so we can relax and just beat the snot out of IU.

Hope is a good thing.

Why would Dusty want to go to IU? Michigan is a better program now.

Wisconsin is lurking uncomfortably close in the shadows. This feels like one of those seasons where they bubble up from nowhere and steal a share of the title.
