UPDATE – THURSDAY (MAY 16) AT 10:00 P.M.
Below are the final scores from tonight, the schedule for Friday and updated Big Ten standings. Two games left on the schedule for Friday and Saturday as we take it down to the wire.
Notes
>> Michigan-Indiana altered their schedules due to a storm in Bloomington, IN expected to roll through on Friday. They played a doubleheader today. No game on Friday. They will finish the series with Game 3 on Saturday as originally scheduled.
>> I checked the forecasts for Friday and Saturday in East Lansing, West Lafayette and Bloomington. Knock on wood: Looks like we’re in for mostly clear skies and very little chance of rain, per the weather experts. NEB at MSU, ILL at PUR and MICH at IND should be all set with no cancellations/postponements.
>> Nebraska-Michigan State Game 2 was moved to 4pm CT on Friday and Illinois-Purdue Game 2 was moved to 7pm CT on Friday. Both will be broadcast on Big Ten Network.
