Now it gets fun

A week or so ago MSU was in the driver seat for the big ten title. They were undefeated in conference and no other team had less then 3 losses. Then Wisconsin beat them bad in Madison, and Lucas got hurt. They then lose at Ill without him, and then last night back home, even with him back, still not 100% of course Purdue came away with a big win in East Lansing, after MSU cut it to 3 Purdue responded to dominate the end of the game and win by 12. Now the big ten is wide open. MSU and ILL are both 9-3, Purdue and OSU are 8-3, while Wisconsin is also right there at 8-4 Any of those teams can win the big ten now. It should be a very fun few weeks. OSU with Turner back is really playing the best basketball right now, Purdue got some of their bad games out of the way and are also playing well, and ILL has just beat MSU and Wisconsin in back to back games. To me all 5 teams are in the big dance right now, and depending on how they finish I think either Northwestern or Minnesota could still make it 6.

CMU lost another tough one last night to Akron by 4. It was very sad that so many people choose not to go out to the game last night due to the snow. Only 760 fans were there after 3,142 came out on Saturday. The team is playing hard and deserves to have people support them, they just are not use to winning enough big games to make enough big plays when the game is on the line. It really hurts me, but it does feel good to play basketball games that mean something again, it's been a long time. The girls have a big game at home against 19-5 (9-1 in the MAC) Bowling Green tonight, they play much better at home, so I am hoping they find a way to get the job done.

Tenn is a good team against almost everyone in the nation but Vandy apparently. They have a really big game on Saturday against Ken, so maybe they were looking ahead a little too much, but since they already lost to them once, they shouldn't have been. I'm right, you're wrong.
