Big Ten 2023

Trap game for Penn State.

Too bad, that’ll be viewed as a bad loss,
it looked like a trap game to me.

Anybody know why that game was played at a neutral site in NY?

A quick look through pregame pressers didnt really say why, I'm just curious what the program ties are for either side...

[CU77]

That's an annual invitational game sponsored by the Long Island Metro Lacrosse Foundation. They find two different teams each year that are willing to play there.

Penn St is such a confusing team

That's a bad loss, though. Just like Michigan's loss to Marquette was a bad loss.

Or … Marquette is a talented but inconsistent team that can play well enough to beat Michigan and Penn State, but also badly enough to lose to Bellarmine and Utah (no disrespect to those two teams).

You've clearly become too used to making excuses over these past few years of Hop lacrosse.

Gotta lay the groundwork early.

Maryland
Rutgers
Penn State

Wow OSU last? Behind UM. Interesting. Could this be the year RU climbs the Md mountain?

[gymman1031]

Any current predictions on how many Big Ten teams make the NCAA Tournament?

OSU have not been competitive in at least three of their losses (I didn’t catch the Denver game). I think they will have a hard time putting up more than ten goals against pretty much every other B1G team besides Michigan. And Michigan seems to have improved. They were relatively competitive against UVa, and have quality wins against Delaware and Harvard. I like that Conry has put some tougher games in their early-season schedule, to really test the team, and force them to play at a higher level.

I think whoever loses the Michigan-OSU game will be in the cellar of the B1G. Their game will be in Ann Arbor.

Oy Vey …

if tOSU takes out Rutgers,
what then ?

Thought the same thing. Surprised Drew Blanchard isn’t taking draws. No Knox or
LaCalandria either, not sure why Myers bothers w transfers.

[Matnum PI]

Wow. OSU up 7-2. Still early but 7-2 isn't a small margin. We'll see...

Buckeyes are red hot on O and Rutgers isn't even awake, Buckeye goalie is seeing beachballs.....

[Njlaxx11]

Yeah RU looks awful tonight

[10stone5]

Blanchard is injured.
