Deadly Cyclone
Pride of Iowa State
Our win today sets up a huge game Monday with Kansas. It'll be to continue our home win streak to 23 in a row, and build some huge momentum through the end of the season.

Tennessee in control now!
Lol. I don't think we play enough games to go under .500 so the NIT will gladly take the reigning national champions.

So today was the day that Syracuse retired Carmelo Anthony's jersey. A one-and-done player. :/
It's fitting that they lost the game.

Even if you were a 1st round knock out last year NIT would still take you this year just because of the money purposes of the Kentucky following.

Kentucky is one of the dumbest teams I've seen play in a long time.
Every game they find new ways to be dumb...especially when they are up

What an unbelievably stupid play by Mays. :lol
Their balls are in a constant state of flux. It won't last. But Missouri is better than Vanderbilt and they didn't find their balls in the game so. Maybe it's something.

Notice how Miami is playing without Frank Haith
^^
I think if we win the games we're expected to win from here on out, we deserve to be in.
I still don't expect to go very far, but these kids deserve a chance, I really thought they were going to collapse after Noel went out, then that Tennessee debacle, but somewhere they found some heart.
Absolutely. We should get in barring any random fuckups like the Tennessee game.
And yeah, I don't know what our title chances are with this team, but we're playing better. I can see us winning a game or two in the tourney.

Beat Mizzou at home, a team who is absolutely horrible on the road to the tune of 1-7, equals NCAA bid? I feel bad for whatever mid major gets fucked over that shit. Or even if a team like Villanova who has three legit major wins gets left out.

Lets go Illini and Ohio State. Need some of these top tens to falter so we can get a little movement heading down the stretch.

Pitt makes every game closer than it needs to be. Missing free throws is the only consistent thing this team does.

As Rick Pitino says every week "that's the Big East."
He's going to need a new catchphrase in a couple years.
Woodall really brought it scoring wise. 8/12 from the field 23 pts
Edit; D'Angelo Harrison had a terrible day shooting so far 1/11
Edit; Another road win. Hopefully we can finish the season out with all wins and win a couple in the tourney get ourselves in position for a decent seed

Ugh. The margin for error for this Illini team is still too thin. Really can't afford both DJ and Paul to stink it up in the same game. Which they did.
GG Fellows!
Also, Dan Dakich (ESPN announcer) can get fucked. One day I hope to meet him in person to relay the message firsthand.

You need to call into his radio show in Indianapolis so you can get clowned by him.

Perhaps I will. But I'd need a decent cover to get on air.
My opening line to him would probably be "Did Bruce Weber suck your dick or did you suck his?"
Ripping on former players by name, like Dakich did today, is laughably unprofessional. Dude should get out of the announcer's booth and stick to talk radio.
In addition to being unprofessional, he was also completely wrong. So there's that too.

This Pitbull guy reminds me of Slurms McKenzie for some reason.

He's just doing his best Bobby The Brain Heenan impression.

My end of year 1 seed predictions:
1) Indiana
2) Miami/Duke
3) Gonzaga
4) Best team in Big East or Florida
I think IU is a stone cold lock, granted they have some tough ones left, but they're battle test and I think they're a lock barring like 3 losses.
Miami and Duke could both hypothetically make it, but with a game left between the two, and the way it feels unlikely top teams in the ACC kinda falter each year in that tourney, I'm guessing this will probably be Miami especially after the Wake game.
Zags have a weak ass schedule and will win out if they win at BYU. That with 2 losses this year is good enough for a #1.
Last spot is up for debate, but I think the Big Ten continues to beat up on each other with IU still standing, Kansas' resume is too fraudulent, and Florida's resume is weak. A Big East team will get hot and make a run as usual among GTown, Cuse, and the Ville. If not, Florida gets it.

Not really, but they're going to give it to them if they win out and another couple one seeds will likely end up with 5 losses on the year.
Not the strongest resume ever, but all of the other moving pieces at the top sort of lets the Zags slip in.
I think they could make a run. Solid guards (especially Pangos) and their bigs are dope. Olynyk in particular has gotten really good.
don't call it a comeback!
