Guide to being a fan:
— If your team loses, they were unlucky
— If your team wins, they were just that good. No luck involved
— If your team is called for a foul, micro-analyze it to prove the ref wrong
— If the opponent is called for a foul, ignore the replay and scroll Bluesky instead
— If your team loses, they were unlucky
— If your team wins, they were just that good. No luck involved

Wild night in the Big Ten. Purdue wins at Nebraska, and Wisconsin wins at Illinois -- both in OT.
That means that if Michigan wins at Northwestern on Wednesday, it takes a 2-game lead in the standings.

Jake Davis ––> Zvonomir Ivisic alley oop dunk.
As this was live I was wondering what was going to happen as Jake Davis is a two dribbles and a good decision type of player. You don't want him to and he rarely ever takes more than two dribbles, yet Illinois finding ways to get him involved.

I would force Keaton Wagler inside the arc. He's too good of a long range shooter to give him this much space. He loves shooter from well beyond the three point line. I imagine his average three point distance is one of the longest in college basketball.

I haven't seen Keaton Wagler play this physical. I wondered how it would look if he needed to just go get a bucket inside.
Gains an advantage on the screen, drives hard, decelerates and pushes the off balanced defender trying to get back into the play out of the way.

You can see how Keaton Wagler will be a negative on defense in the NBA until he can build his strength up to absorb these shoves better.
