Big Ten shouldn't get more then 8 in tops:

Purdue
Indiana
Illinois
Rutgers
Iowa
Michigan State

Those are pretty locked at the moment

Northwestern
Maryland

Those two are bubbly but likely will sneak in

Wisconsin
Michigan
Penn State
Ohio State
Nebraska
Minnesota

All those should be toast unless WI, UM, PSU finish strong.

The bottom 6 really shouldn't be in the discussion at all.

Gard and Holtman wont be back next year.

I'd guess Gard gets one more season but the trend isn't good. He's had pretty wobbly teams that made tourney runs but there's no real identity to Buckyball.

Could be, you are certainly closer to the situation then I am.

I think Gard is safe until at least conference starts next season. Back to back conference championships bought him time. He probably is nervous though after McIntosh fired Chryst.

Last I saw recruiting doesn't look great which was a big factor in Chryst being let go.

Ryan was stubborn and it wasn't for everyone but it was a program identity and they generally had good teams.

Gotta be honest watching BU/WVU and it's pretty remarkeable that ISU can hang with these teams from an athletic standpoint.

Officials in TX / TT game just let Carr get away with a TERRIBLE kick out that wasn't even executed well and he just fell down. AND the official fell for it. That should be a 2 shot T with the ball being given back to the harmed team. I absolutely hate that ****.

Good game. Tech is playing with confidence. Their crowd is outstanding tonight.

Can't say I blame them for the hate.

What if Tech gets to 17 wins heading into the B12 tournament… They could be fighting for a bubble bid. If they pull this out vs Texas they need 3 more wins, with 2 more home games. Could get real interesting.
