2011-2012 NCAA Basketball Thread

Mizzou winning helps Illinois more than KU winning does. I'd also be pretty shocked if MU doesn't win.

 

And let the record show that I hate Marquette and ND for making me miss UF-Vandy

 

I didn't even think about the NCAA tourney implications. It was just my hatred for Kansas overruling any Braggin Rights rivalry. (And my Kansas hate started when Bill Self was still in Champaign)

The purple scourge of the Midwest.

If we didn't have that worst coach of all time we could legit make a semi finals run in the MVC tourny, instead we'll lose on some garbage at the end of the game on Thursday night.

 

Anywho, you asked me before if I've heard anything about CLo...it appears that he'll finally be gone after this season. Fingers crossed.

I only have one thing to say. f*** Bradley.

Not to incite a riot but if a team like Iowa State is getting serious consideration for an At Large at the moment then Wyoming has to be given the same after today. Obviously a long way to go but very similar teams at the moment.

I wish we could have Mizzou at home around now rather than right at the beginning of the conference season.

Believe me, a lot of Mizzou fans have mentioned this.

UNI about to beat Creighton if they don't collapse with 9 seconds left.

Creighton hits a 3 with 4.9 seconds left to tie it, UNI hits a buzzer beater.

Wyoming's wins outside of UNLV are a little sketchy.

That was fun.

So are your boys. Very similar resume's right now.

I turned it on with 2:30 minutes left. That was awesome.

I heard the same thing last week. Hope they hire someone legit and not just because they are close to the program.

Ehh, yes but no.

With out re-looking at their resume's I believe they both have 3 top 100 wins. I personally believe that UNLV is a better team than KU so after that it's just how you feel about Colorado State.

 

Don't get me wrong, I don't think Wyoming belongs in the tourny right now but I believe that Iowa State has a ton more work to do to be a serious tourny team.

Yikes, didn't notice how far and how fast Xavier has fallen.

Quality of those top 100 wins is different though when it's Kansas/K-State/Texas and UNLV/Colorado/Colorado State.

 

Iowa State also hasn't lost to a team outside the top 25 (at the time) since UNI on November 30, and only two losses all year outside the top 25 (UNI and Drake).

 

Both teams still have time to earn it, though.

 

EDIT: Whoops, I was also wrong on ISU, they lost to Texas a couple weeks ago when they were unranked.

The fight killed their season. Still, them and Temple would be the two teams out of the a10 I wouldn't want to face in March if X can fight their way in.

Well as I said UNLV>KU imo and Texas is clearly better than Colorado who is just garbage. Once again, it depends how you look at CSU who is a decent team.

 

Anywho this is very much a pointless argument at the moment, just thought I'd throw it out there for fun.

More importantly Heads, what the hell is up with Royce?

Wyoming has brown uniforms, and brown is the color of poop.

 

 

CMon IU, just make a basket.

College basketball Saturdays are just as awesome as college football Saturdays. Just so much action everywhere
