Boy, I'd sure like to avoid that potential 2nd round matchup with the Buckeyes.
 


Interesting that the early two Thursday games are on BTN and the latter two are on ESPN. I feel like this is switched from previous years, unless I am mixing up Thursday and Friday. I know the Friday night pair of quarterfinal games have always been BTN.

Yep, they switched it around. Would guess it had something to do with the 4th Thursday game (Nebraska addition) and how everything fits into ESPN/ESPN2's programming.

And I agree with 920/414 Gopher. ... would like to avoid OSU at all costs. They're the only team in the B1G where I think the Gophers have no shot, even moreso if Draymond Green's knee injury is season-ending.
