Michigan leads 38-35 at the half. Hillmon almost had a double-double, 18/9, shooting 7-7 from the field. Greene has 12 for OSU.

The Buckeyes are staying in the game with 47% from 3. Michigan has the rebounding edge 25-10.

Northwestern wins at Minnesota, 56-54. It was a back-and-forth game, until both teams went cold for the last 3 minutes of the fourth quarter.

ESPN stats are reporting that Maryland has 38 offense of boards and still lost. I'm not exactly sure if that's accurate that is just a tad bit off that's crazy

The box score reports that MD had 33 O-boards, and 52 total rebounds....odd!

IA and MD combined for 55 turnovers: they were really rackin' them up -- Shocked MD had 1 fewer than IA. Asst/TO ratios were ugly.

And now, IN sits atop the Big Ten. Didn't see that coming....

Terps currently last in the Big Ten in free throw percentage (63.9%) and three point shooting percentage (16.7%). They ain’t goin’ nowhere until they figure this out.

That is what's so surprising about the Terps. Normally Brenda's teams are better offensively than defensively, but not this squad. This is where not having an experienced point guard comes into play, Owusu will be good, nothing wrong with having a scoring point guard, but she's still pretty green.

I liked Indiana is a distant second or third to Maryland in the preseason just based on their guard strengths and how they finished up last year. As much is The Twerps have underperformed Indiana has exceeded my expectations. The next three games will tell much about who The 2020 Hoosiers are as a team as their schedule sandwiches NW between road games at Iowa city and College park.

If the Terps do not develop some stickum on their fingers, they won't make the E-8.

Out of 34 games in 2018-19, Taylor Mikesell started all 34 and Blair Watson started 32. They weren't this bad back then--but back then, they also had Chennise Lewis, the team leader in assists by a wide margin despite coming off the bench for more than half of the games played.

Another big difference between this year and last is Brianna Fraser coming off the bench. She wasn't a world-beater, but if you break her numbers down by minutes played rather than by game, she was a solid contributor. (The Terps have historically been well-stocked with beef under the bucket, from Lang and Laura Harper through Lynetta Kizer and all the way to Brionna Jones. This year is the thinnest they've been under the bucket in a long time.)

Indiana creamed Purdue last night, in a game that wasn't as close as the 18-point margin made it seem.

Purdue continues to show how much it has fallen under Sharon Versyp. Duke gets the attention, but the way Versyp has killed the Purdue program is just as bad.

My three top candidates last year all took new jobs in the offseason (Duffy, Ivey, and Kreiger), but there are still plenty of coaches I would rather see get a chance at this team. Let's hope the AD can finally pull the trigger cut Versyp loose.

They should it look like they could now but if it starts coming together for some of those towels and freshman in some of the sophomores shake their slump, this team could be a final four team. They've got the superstar in Charles, and outside game, and a post presence. No more often than not none of these pieces happen to be clicking at the same time, but if they do this team has a lot of potential.

Did she just seems to be shaking up like the 2015 2016 season where you had outliers like the University of Washington and Syracuse making the final four. Maryland could be one of these outliers.

Hard to see them winning either the Big Ten conference or the tournament, so they'll be praying for an at-large bid at best. Which may or may not come, depending on how the rest of the conference progresses.

The odd thing is that nobody really saw this coming, e.g., they were ranked as high as #4 in ESPN's pre-season poll.

Maryland: IMO their two super studs are over-rated and their role players just haven't been fulfilling their roles. Owusu has been good for a Freshman, but they really miss the maturity of a Lewis at the point.

I saw them up close and personal (3 rows from courtside in the intimate confines of the Convo Center). Austin, Charles, and Owusu all have potential, but they don't play well as a team, and they have very slippery hands. Of course, so did we that night Embarassed
