Big Ten Tournament

The Takeaway

[waitingforcorrection: guid not valid, no audio, also actual date is 11 mar — see url] March Madness begins this weekend with the Big Ten Tournament. Takeaway Sports Contributor Ibrahim Abdul-Matin is calling Ohio State, Kansas and Pitt as locks for the number one seeds. Is it too early to guess on the number one slot?   All this month, starting Sunday night, we’re going to be taking our listeners’ picks for the final four only. We’ll remind you Monday and you can text, email or call us with your final last match-ups. Whoever gets the most correct will get the chance to come on the show and tell us how they did it.  In the meantime, check the Takeaway.org starting next week for a look at Celeste’s, Ibrahim’s, and John’s bracket, and compare notes.
