Few things stand out
- Just 1 road and home back-to-back.
- Both the Illinois games are on 3 days rest
- Just 1 game vs Nebraska, Ohio State, and Minnesota…the bottom 3 teams last season.
- Just 1 Michigan State game, and it’s at home.
Then there’s this from SID Chris Foreman
Every one of those teams made last year's NCAA Tournament, and features from last year:
– 2 No. 1 seeds.
– 1 No. 2 seed.
– 2 No. 3 seeds.
– 1 No. 4 seed.
– 1 No. 7 seed.
– 1 No. 8 seed.— Chris Forman (@Chris_Forman12) September 19, 2023
No pressure right?
