Relax jbails, look at this board right now man, you aren't the lone frickin' ranger. This all started in the 90's IMO when Izzo and MSU started mauling people with the Flintstones. Bigger, tougher, faster, stronger. Period. Teams like Wisconsin, I-U and OSU have kept up. Most of the rest have taken the fetal position and the only way to keep N-U,Iowa, PSU, UM, etc....competitive is to resort to this dog and pony show. Plus: and correct me if I'm wrong here anyone, most officiating crews in the Big Ten straight up can't stand Izzo. Hard for all us lovers of his to believe, but they HATE HIS GUTS. They feel he shows them up, berates them and they flat don't like him. Not paranoid, not an excuse, just a fact of life. I've chosen over the last five years to concentrate on the tourney in March. We aren't winning the league title this season : again. No one will care if we make a deep run in March, and that;s the ****ing beauty of it.
