I agree, a win here would look good but won't mean much if we don't finish off the season strong. With roadies at Indiana and an improved Minny along with the home slate that includes Purdue, Wisky and Sparty. One win here won't do us much if we can't go at least 3-2 in these games and make sure we win the other two contests where we will be road favorites.
Realistically 22-9 (13-5) should get tOSU into the tourney as long as they win at least one game in the Big 10 tourney. A trip to the tourney this year would be a tremendous benefit going into next season. I think it was a huge factor in the run last year that we had a core group of players who had tourney experience to draw from. Without a trip this season we would have a talented yet unexperienced, tournament wise, roster next season.
