Make Your Picks: Big Ten Championship

First off, let me just say I hope you will all be here for our Live Blog event, featuring The Buckeyes taking on the Gophers.

Ohio State has finally reached the final stage of the Big Ten Tournament. They won the regular season trophy, and are now vying for a second one to put in the trophy case next to the regular season one. The opponent is someone that they didn't expect, much like the rest of the nation. The Minnesota Golden Gophers come in after fighting all the way from round 1 against Penn State, to upsetting Michigan State and Purdue, both favorites to reach the semi and finals. Now the Golden Gophers are looking for some love from the media trying to get into the NCAA Tourney. I would be surprised if they didn't, as they took care of the top of the Big Ten, except Ohio State, which still may come. Last time these two teams met Ohio State won in Value City Arena, but the time before that, Minnesota won on their home court. It will be interesting to see what happens. Of course, the stat of the year is that with Evan Turner, Ohio State has become a legitimate contender for the NCAA tournament. So, here's the final game before the March Madness tournament you get to pick on for the GPC.
