B1G Tournament Preview

Jacob and Derek recap what was for Indiana, we think, an overall positive week as well as preview the final days of the Big Ten slate.

Happy March!

Alex Howard joins the podcast this week to talk Indiana's resume and recap the season that was in the Crossroads League! We also go deep-diving into the resumés of several Big Ten clubs as March rapidly approaches.

It's almost March...

This week, Jacob and Derek discuss Indiana's week and why Penn State's success is good for the Big Ten.

Unfamiliar contenders

This week, it's all about Bob Knight's return to Assembly Hall, the state of IU basketball, and the still wide-open Big Ten race.

Bob Knight returns

There's parity in the Big Ten, but not like ever before. 12 teams have a legitimate shot to make the tournament, and we discuss that at length today.

Parity...sorta

We talk at length about how difficult it is to win on the road in the Big Ten, as well take our first look at how many teams could make the NCAA tournament.

Rare wins on the road

Coming in to this week, B1G teams are now 13-0 at home. Can they keep that streak alive? Taylor University senior Alex Howard joins the podcast to recap the week that was and to preview the week that is soon to be.

Undefeated at Home

So our opinions kinda changed, and now we are behind the B1G all the way after defeating the ACC 8-6 in last week's challenge.

B1G is KING!

This week, we preview the great slate of games in the B1G/ACC Challenge.

B1G/ACC Challenge Preview

The Big Ten wins the Gavitt Games...again! Does that change our thoughts about the state of the Big Ten?

Gavitt Games winner!

The Big Ten as a league had some...questionable losses this week, including one to a team that's never won a D-1 game before! Basketball is back!

Oh no, Big Ten

In our first episode, we preview the Big Ten and college basketball as a whole, as well as make our Final Four picks.

Pilot Episode!
