Summary

Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander open up with a big ol' deep dive on some Big Ten topics that span the league, led by the ongoing beef between Michigan and Illinois over should be the league champ. Michigan State a lock? GP says yes. Norlander can't quite just yet. Then, we must talk Houston's shot from the logo (26:30) to kill Memphis' at-large hopes on Sunday. A good trip down memory lane, too. There were four auto bids handed out over the weekend, but with Loyola Chicago (38:45) keeping Drake on the bubble, where should both of these teams be seeded? Dilemmas await. And a rapid-fire, highly informative whiparound (55:00) touches on just about every result of note from a jam-packed March opening weekend.

0:50.7	Big 10.
0:51.7	It's the best league in the country with the most legitimate final four contenders.
0:55.0	Michigan, if you didn't notice, even with the loss that Michigan state on Sunday is your
0:59.0	Big 10 champ, but not without controversy.
1:01.5	And that's because Illinois finished with two more league wins than Michigan.
