    They don't even know the teams we're playing let alone the dates. All they could print today is WSU vs. TBA on TBA at TBA o'clock.

      Hope they don't spell TBA wrong.

      • Play the team in front of you and if you can't beat them, you don't deserve the National Title. It doesn't bother me when we lose to better teams. It doesn't bother me when we play better teams. I'm not gonna cross my fingers every year hoping that we get a cake schedule with cake teams and play every game in our backyard. For me, it's shut up and play.

              Season ticket renewals don't need any of that yet. Just the total price.

                Oops, I meant to reply to others with a quote. Not off topic from a few pages back when everyone was whining about seeding.

                  We do know that one of them will be WSU vs TBA on TBA at TBA o'clock played at IBA.

                        I don't think anyone is asking for a cupcake schedule or preferential seeding. Besides in the NCAA Tournament there is really no such thing as a cupcake schedule for the most part. Maybe a few exceptions in the Round of 64. The fact of the matter is that currently the NCAA seeds all 64 teams in this tournament. If it is going to be seeded then it makes sense for that to be done in the fairest and most consistent matter that it can be. Nothing will ever be perfect but you can always strive to be as close to perfect as you can.

                        We understand. You don't care. You don't have to care. We don't care that you don't care. But that doesn't mean everyone needs to cop that same attitude. Clearly Coach Marshall cares and the vast majority of Shocker fans care about fair and consistent treatment in the seeding process.

                        • Just fair and unbiased. Bring on the good teams of course. It would just be more cooler to play a Kentucky or kansas or Arizona in the Sweet-16 or Elite 8 or Final Four. The moving target is ridiculous and I really don't think it'll change to better metrics next year either.
                          FINAL FOURS:
                          1965, 2013

                          NCAA Tournament:
                          1964, 1965, 1976, 1981, 1985, 1987, 1988, 2006, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2021

                            And that, 1972, is why he's only a mini-shock. If he were a full shock, he'd care.
