2024 LIST: Most Pivotal Football Games; Illinois Basketball is Elite!

Locked On Big 10 – Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast

With Spring Football underway we look at every Big 10 team and point out their most pivotal games on the 2024 schedule. Every game will be a dog fight, but a critical win at the right time of the season can make the difference between a successful season or a disappointing one. And, by the way, the most important games for the Michigan Wolverines and the Ohio State Buckeyes are not vs each other. Listen or watch here on Locked on Big 10 and find out what we think. Agree or disagree! But your feedback is always welcome!

ELITE 8

Illinois basketball is Elite! Congrats to the Fighting Illini as they beat Iowa State to get into the Elite 8. Up next, a date with #1 Connecticut with a trip to the Final Four on the line. Illinois has not been to the Final Four since 2005.

The Purdue Boilermakers will also try to find Elite territory with a big game against Gonzaga tonight!

In women's basketball the Indiana Hoosiers have a tough game tonight against a loaded South Carolina Gamecocks team and tomorrow Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes face Colorado. Good luck to all of the Big 10 teams still in action!

PICKS

Finally, we will make our bold predictions for all the men's and women's basketball games this weekend in our third segment on Locked on Big 10 with Craig Shemon. It promises to be a great weekend!
