Sam: Illinois– Love the matchup of Kofi and Oturu down low.This is one the Gophers could really use, but the Illini are on fire, so I can’t pick against them at home. Zach: Illinois- Great matchup down low. Illinois at … Continue reading TSR 1/30/20 CBB Picks
TODAY’S GAMES 1. Michigan State vs Northwestern (6:30, BTN) Nick: Michigan State–Michigan State gets this victory on their quest to win the Big Ten once again. It will be the perfect opportunity for Cassius Winston to get those points and assists up on his quest for the 2000/1000 club. It would be great for this game to get out of hand, so guys like Foster Loyer, … Continue reading TSR 1/29/20 CBB Picks
TAKEAWAYS FROM MONDAY 1-Brad Davison was back at it last night. In typical “Buzzcut Brad” fashion, his dirty play was back on display last night, when he punched an Iowa player in the groin. I would not be surprised to see this result in some discipline if the video gets to the Big Ten office. TODAY’S GAMES 1. Nebraska vs Michigan (7:00, ESPNU) Nick: Nebraska–The Vault … Continue reading TSR 1/28/20 CBB Picks

Today’s Games 1-Indiana vs Michigan State (8:30, FS1) Nick: Michigan State—The Hoosiers have the home court advantage, nearly a victory in itself in the Big Ten this year. However, the Hoosiers do not have a matchup for the nation’s best player in Cassius Winston. The X-Factor here will be at the 3 and 4 position, as Michigan State’s Achilles heel has been most of the season. … Continue reading TSR 1/23/20 CBB Picks
Takeaways 1-The fight during last night’s Kansas and Kansas State “Sunflower Showdown” was something unlike we have ever seen in college basketball, perhaps only rivaled by the Malice at the Palace. The amount of suspensions will impact the Big 12 race, especially with De Sousa for Kansas. Today’s Games 1-Michigan vs Penn State (7:00, BTN) Nick: Michigan—Isaiah Livers is the key here, as his injury has … Continue reading TSR 1/22/20 CBB Picks
