  1. QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 3, 2013 -> 07:38 PM) The bubble sucks this year. The fact that Baylor is still as close as they are should say something, because they are hot garbage. I don't see Iowa making a run without Gesell. The bubble sucks every year.
  2. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 3, 2013 -> 05:42 PM) Derrick Rose is starting to feel like a myth. He only exists in avatar form.
  3. QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 3, 2013 -> 12:13 PM) To say they did. I may get heat for this, but when did Taylor Swift get so hot? She is wearing these sexy clothes lately and I'm digging it. I've always thought she was a cutie, she's straight up sexy now. QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 3, 2013 -> 02:46 PM) Why do people run on ice? Cause they want cool scars on their forehead.
  4. QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Mar 3, 2013 -> 12:51 PM) I looked at Evansville's "resume" and it is much better than I thought. 2-5 vs. RPI Top 50 5-6 vs. RPI Top 100 (includes ND, Butler & Colorado State, all on the road) But here is the killer..... Losses (RPI 150+) RPI DATE OPPONENT SCORE 221 Nov. 15 Buffalo* 50-56 211 Feb. 2 @ Missouri State 61-62 181 Feb. 5 @ Bradley 70-76 177 Feb. 13 @ Southern Illinois 56-65 If Evansville wins all 4, they would be 22 - 9 and likely a bubble team. Their struggles on the road have really, really hurt them. They have won their last two road games @ Wichita and @ Wright St, however. Not sure how I like their chances in Arch Madness. I know they gave Creighton a tough time last year (win @ home, 1 pt loss in OT on the road). But I don't like having to play IN state back to back games. For whatever reason, playing against Jake Odum isn't comfortable. He finds ways to beat you. A semifinal game vs. Creighton is FAR from a given. Sadly, this is a senior laden team so it may take a couple of years before they are even back to this point. They've been playing the best ball of any team in the league so who knows. Any of the top 6 seeds could win and I wouldn't be surprised.
  5. Why do people do the polar plunge?
  6. QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 2, 2013 -> 11:28 PM) 10 seed, just how you drew it up. It worked out perfectly for what could of happened as of yesterday. And yes, I'm overly excited for someone whose team is a 10 seed but outside of Evansville, we've played as good as anyone in the conference down the stretch. We match up poorly with Creighton and Illinois State and we avoided them until at least the semis so that made me a happy Rowand. I wouldn't be shocked if we can make a run to the semis. Anywho, here's my predictions: Bradley SIU Creighton Evansville Northern Iowa Wichita State Creighton Northern Iowa Creighton

  8. QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Mar 2, 2013 -> 09:13 PM) Salukis! You're welcome!
  9. Boom dawgs win. Mo state on Thursday. Worked out perfect!
  10. QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 2, 2013 -> 08:17 PM) lol, they sure know how to f*** up those types of situations. Yup. Amazing how little Scott Drew can get out of so much talent.
  11. Creightons your one seed and on the opposite side of SIU's bracket. Yay. And an SIU mention on the broadcast. Double yay.
  12. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 2, 2013 -> 02:40 PM) Oklahoma is 32 for 32 from the ft line. Wow. And they tie the record. 34 for 34.
  13. McDermott going all Laettner in the 1st half.
  14. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Mar 2, 2013 -> 01:44 PM) I've complained about that numerous times in this thread. What makes it particularly egregious that the refs favor the defensive player to the extent they do in college basketball is that well over 50% of the time the defensive player should be called for a foul in those situations. It drives me insane. And oh ya it's wayyyyyyy over 50 percent. It's terrible.
  15. QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 2, 2013 -> 01:34 PM) OU smacking ISU. Just s***ty effort. Hangover?
  16. QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 2, 2013 -> 12:39 PM) So as long as we don't play anyone hot or good, we got a shot? Yes pretty much. Haha.
