It’s hard to believe we’ve reached the middle of the season. (Be sure to check out IL’s Midseason All-Americans.) Who would have guessed that last week’s three Big Ten road underdogs would end up in first place in the Big Ten? That Maryland and Hopkins would lose at home to .500 ball clubs? The thing that makes sports so great is that anything can happen, and that is why they play the games. It sets up another exciting weekend of action, and D-Fly & Dixie are here to get you ready.
