2023 Men’s Big Ten Basketball Name Of The Year Tournament: Round of 16

Eliminated from the hoops tournament, Nebraska still has a chance here

In case you missed it yesterday, our fun companion to the Big Ten Tournament also kicked off yesterday with two low-seeded matchups.

The Name of the Year bracket had its play-in round yesterday and both of the lower-seeded names won their matchups in decisive fashion. Myles Dread doubled up Kobe Bufkin 48-24, and Miller Kopp and his Killer Mopp won by a similar 46-26 margin over Sam Griesel, whose exit leaves Nebraska with only three entries in the Round of 16.

Without further ado, I present to you: round two!

What name do you like better? What’s more fun to say? What’s more fun to look at? What has the best pun potential? Everything is a factor and no two people have the exact same taste in names. Make your voice heard!
