They have a legit shot to win what I have to assume would be their 1st ever B1G title. Michigan hosts their only meeting with Maryland in the season finale. Before that, the schedule is: v Pur, @Rut, v NW, @MSU, @Minn, v MD. Maryland has a very similar schedule left, but faces Nebraska twice still. I was looking at bracketology, and I did not realize that seeds 1-4 in each region host the first two rounds. ESPN has Michigan currently as a 5 seed. That would be huge if they could move into a 4 seed or better. (Michigan beat Nebraska in Lincoln in their only scheduled meeting). 

TEAM CONF OVERALL
Maryland 7-1 18-3
Michigan 8-2 19-4
Nebraska 7-2 16-6
Ohio State 6-3 17-5
Minnesota 5-3 16-5
Purdue 5-3 14-8
Rutgers 5-4 17-6
Iowa 4-5 16-6
Michigan State 4-5 14-8
Penn State 4-5 13-9
Indiana 4-6 11-12
Northwestern 2-7 9-14
Wisconsin 2-8 9-14
Illinois 0-9 9-14

Went to UMWBB vs NU at the historic Beardsley Gym in Evanston yesterday and KBA got her 400th victory. Great venue to watch some bball. KBA and the players we met were all awesome and took pics with my son and his buddy.

was a Miracle..Down 3  and shooting a Desperation 3  with .07 secs left, Michigan gets fouled makes all 3 fts goes into OT and wins the game...That could end up earning them a BIG Title if they can win out..Maryland has a bunch of road games remaining including at Michigan so If they can bear down they have a good shot at it...I like our chances of ending the season in the top 16 thus hosting the NCAA tournament...
