Pariwise
Norte Dame is out. Msu is on the 16 line at 18-17-2. One more win may get them in because it would be huge points beating the Gophers. Two more and they get the Automatic big ten bid. Psu is safe even after losing in Columbus. Big ten will have Minnesota, Michigan, Ohio st, Penn st for side. Possibly Msu.

I think Michigan is frozen 4 regardless but hope they beat Minnesota. On the better side one of my alma maters NMU shutout a good WMU team 4-0.

 

[biggunsbob]

Yes all three Osu, Minnesota and Michigan are in the ncaa Regardless of the results yesterday. Msu needed to win out I think although at 18-18-2 Msu is still sitting in 16th place in the Parwise and the ncaa takes the top 16 teams. Broadcast crew last night made it sound like Msu was out. They must be thinking there will be conference title upsets that will take some spot.
Big ten has Psu, um, minn, Osu, that should be locks.

Cool.

Women play in round 2 of the NCAA basketball tournament that still matters.

So can watch them back to back.

Is that the son who named ?Mean Girls? as his favorite movie on some scholastic application, or something like that?

I remember you posted something like that at sometime.

Anyways - a person gotta love a kid like that.

Yes. It was for his varsity hockey bio that was on the program when he played for UD Jesuit. He's an avid Michigan fan and he sat stoically in the seats wearing a Minnesota sweatshirt.

Right, a hockey bio.

That makes the selection of ?Mean Girls? even more cool.

Like, Riley Keough level cool.
