I made a bet with someone the other day that they will not run the table..

What do you think Eric?

I don't know James.I heard from some people that the game at Columbus next week could be thier 1st loss.

I think,regardless,they may have the #1 seed wrapped up for the Chicago Regional.

Oh, most definitely..

Barring a total collapse, which I dont foresee, even with a loss, maybe even 2 if they lose to OSU and a game in the Big 10 Tourney, they should still be a #1 seed.....
