Fortunate phantom foul on Illinois there

No 1 seed wants to see Wisconsin as the 4 or 5 in their region. That team is more than capable of knocking off a 1 seed in the Sweet 16.

Really hoping that regardless of result Wisconsin is off out seed line as a potential second round matchup. I want no part of that matchup. They can shoot 3s well and are money at the FT line.

Better than us though?

Michigan knows from experience.

Thanks, Bucky. Now Purdue needs to go down.

#7 for Wisconsin is trying to sell

WI choking

Not so fast

 

[JP4CY]

Wisconsin fell into a win. They played some really dumb basketball.

 

[Erik4Cy]

HUGE Wisconsin fan today. The hugest.

 

[isufbcurt]

WOW close

 

[Hoggins]

SCONNIE!

That can’t hurt!

Bucky played dumb these last couple possessions

The announcer just said that Illinois will likely be a 2 seed next week.... seriously? If they got a 2 seed over us... that would be a travesty IMO. We have a better record... AND play in a better conference... AND advanced further in our conference tourney.

 

[jdoggivjc]

That probably gets us a #2.

I'm not too worried about Purdue, if we're neck and neck with them, there's nothing more decisive than one team beating the other badly on their home court.

We want Purdue to win. Zero chance they will put them ahead of ISU on the seed line after ISU won at Mackey.

I would expect the BTN guy to shill for a conference member.

Announcers just telling Illinois fans what they want to hear, ISU should be the 2 seed for sure now

I heard that too, what a joke.
