I’m curious to see what everyone thinks Michigan needs to do in the BTT in order to make the NCAA tournament. Obviously they get in if they win the BTT, but I think it’s clear they don’t need to win it. So that begs the question - how many wins do they need?

I love how the bracket shaped up. Rutgers is a great matchup - theyve been playing pretty poor basketball, and offensively they’ve been really bad. If they win 2, they are a lock IMO. I like their chances if they win 1, as I think they would essentially jump Rutgers, who most believe to be in.

Additionally, I think we are ahead of Wisconsin if we beat Rutgers. Wisconsin just lost to OSU after going 9-11 in conference. Their NET and kenpom was in the 70s last I saw.

There’s obviously a lot of factors in play when evaluating teams. H2h games, computer rankings, quad 1 wins, bad losses, SOS, etc.

Lastly, other results will play a role. Was bummed to see psu pull out the last second win along with Wisconsin pulling out a win at Minnesota. Both games could’ve easily gone the other way, and I believe would’ve out both teams behind Michigan. Love this time of year, and all the chaos. Hope that we beat Rutgers, and take a run at Purdue. This team is playing better than many are giving them credit for.
