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.

UCLA, too. I guess Cronin's rant worked. Purdue has upcoming chances to push both of those a game further back.

He doesn’t need to audition 😂

Dusty wasn’t ready for regular Mackey and isn’t going to be ready for Mackey north.

They got 3 tough ones left. At Purdue, Illinois at home and then at sparty.

I said earlier in the season, watch out for this team but some here said they will tail off I disagree, they are playing a different style of ball than they normally do ( more uptempo ). Blackwell has really improved and Tonje is a borderline dog. Winter and Happy Gilmore have stepped up their games. Klesmit and Krowl are steady players. They also have a nice bench

Yep for sure. Need to take care of business vs them in Mackey. Gonna be a tough one at Mackey north on Tuesday, first thoughh

Wisconsin with four losses would have to sweep two of their tough home games with the Illini and Oregon. Both are very winnable. They then would have to gain a split away at Purdue and MSU to end up with only five losses.

2 of 3 would be really good.
