- Analysis
- You must be out of your minds if you think the preseason No. 1 team that has fought its way back to respectability will bow out that easily in the Big 10 championship. I know Michigan is aiming for a No. 1 seed, but the Boilermakers were thought to be the team to beat in the Big 10 this season. After knocking off Northwestern, Nebraska and UCLA the last three days, I'd say the Boilers are out to send a message to the selection committee tonight. Even if they lose to Michigan, they'll want the committee to remember who everyone pegged as the nation's best back in November. Michigan comes into the final mired in losing skids of 0-4 and 1-6 ATS, and will fail to cover this number.
