This poster might be a dip sht, but don't tell me it's not frustrating. That was a painful game to lose in that manor, especially since it was the first real test of the season. We will win our fair share against ranked opponents this year, but damn.“Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.”

Maybe pay more attention man. Or have some better perspective. We've won some pretty BIG games under this current AWESOME head coach. Sure this one hurts...but we are down a man right now. Surely you remember right? The guy who led the team in points and rebounds last year and who is a probable NBA'er by most experts.FINAL FOURS:

Yes, it was refuted badly. Since the only knock on us nationally, and the cause of our poor seeding the past few years has been that we have not won against top opponents during the regular season, i don't think it's out of the realm to say we have not capitalized on these opportunities.
You made a statement that said we ALWAYS lose regular season games against ranked teams. I pointed out 2 wins over ranked teams in the regular season within the last 2 years. Your statement was WRONG. BADLY.
Next.Deuces Valley.

I am, to say the least, disappointed in the fact that we had a chance to make a statement and let it slip. I think our not winning against ranked teams has been in large part a result of not having the opportunities. That will hopefully be rectified this year.“Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.”

We haven't had many opportunities to play close games. One disadvantage of crushing people night in and night out is that you get less close game experience. Marshall's weakness in these types of games (which may or may not even exist) is almost entirely due to the fact that we generally have the best scoring margin in basketball. This is exactly the type of experience that will help in March.

Clearly nuance evades you. If you re-read the title and how i was trying to reframe the question, you might see that i wasn't trying to make the statement that we have never beaten a ranked opponent during the regular season. That's just ridiculous man. Address the spirit of the argument, and avoid the strawman semantic approach. Also, kick that "next" crap to the curb, you sound like a child.
