March 2 rooting guide

[DawgatAuburn]

Two in the Big 10, two in the Pac 12 plus a bonus from the American.

Michigan has some steam. Would be good to see Illinois slow down their momentum. Tonight would also be a perfect night for Purdue to get their act together and deliver perhaps the death blow to Wisconsin's hopes. At the very least, it would seem to solidify Wisconsin as no better than one of the play in teams.

Would be nice for the top of the Pac 12 to come through. Arizona beating USC and UCLA beating Arizona State might not hurt those two bubble teams all that much in the NET, but it would at least prevent them from notching big time wins.

SMU probably doesn't stand a chance against Memphis, but it would be a tough Q3 loss for the Tigers to swallow.

I appreciate you doing this.

Rutgers with a bad loss at Minnesota.

Illinois wins.

That's how you do wild crowd. Wow

Rutgers with a bad loss at Minnesota.

They’ve been on the 8/9 line but that may drop them close to the bubble. Horrible loss at this stage for them.

Wisconsin is #75 in the NET. Seems they are dead in the water regardless unless they win their tourney.

They have a ton of Q1 and Q2 wins that are keeping them in the hunt. But if they lose this game to Purdue it’s going to be really tough for them to get in.

Well, that should do it then.

Very good night for us, all things considered, with Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona State going down. Rutgers losing at Minnesota is gravy. Memphis beating a bad SMU team doesn’t change much of anything.

Rutgers with a bad loss at Minnesota.

Crazy game. Rutgers led by 14 in the 2H. They led by 10 with 1:15 to go. Minnesota's first lead in the game came after the buzzer.

In-game win probability:

All things considered, a very positive night for us with losses by Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona State. Losing to Minnesota for Rutgers is just gravy. Not much is changed by Memphis defeating a poor SMU squad.

Arizona beats USC in the late night Pac-12 game. Tonight went as well as it could for us.
