Rock Over Paper and Scissors

The Chicago Sun-Times named Kam Taylor Big Ten Player of the week for his virtuoso performance against OSU and clutch play down the stretch against NW. They claim Bucky will be tough to beat with National Player of the Year candidate Tucker and Flowers shooting at a 62.5% clip in league play.

The balance of the article focuses on the tough road ahead for Tom Izzo and MSU, and also claims that with a #5 conference rating in the Sagarin poll, the BT will struggle to land dance cards for teams that lose at home and fail to steal a few on the road. Beyond UW, OSU, and IU, I think the remaining 8 teams will struggle in this respect.
