I feel kinda bad for Indiana State. I can't find a single professional bracket that shows 2 valley teams getting in. Most now seem to show 2 from the AAC. Maybe the Shocks still have a chance? Lol. And their board still seems to think they're a lock. I mean, sure, why not? You beat your conference auto qualifier once in a three game matchup. I expect a number of 23+ win teams sitting home with the same disappointment this year.

If their NET was like 40 instead of 26 they wouldn't even be on the bubble. They are the prime example that blasting 275+ plus teams is better than playing more non-D1 games for NET purposes. Most of their other metrics are in the 40s

We're up to potentially 3 teams now.
Appalachian State 27-6 falls in their semis. No at large bid for you.
3 in one day. Indiana State, Appalachian State and High Point. Combined records of 80 wins and 20 loss and there will be no bids. It has begun.

Your only Q1 win is Bradley ... Q2 is a little better but only Top 50 win all year is home vs Drake. Have a really bad home loss to Illinois State. Average NET win is 185. (For reference ours is 175 lol)

They could win a game, or two, in the tournament.Last edited by ShockingButTrue; March 10, 2024, 09:10 PM.

They're 11th in the Nation in offensive efficiency, 68th in defensive efficiency; in front of Purdue, Creighton, St Johns, Fl Atlantic (142), and Memphis (no surprise there). They play in the 9th rated Conference in the country. It's not like they're a team from the Southern, Big Sky, Patriot, Sun Belt* or MEAC conference's, et. al.
They could win a game, or two, in the tournament.
Classic case of a likely NCAA team without the resume to match

Anyone see that SEC Women's final?
That was ugly. Someone needs to get a hold of several players on both teams. This isn't the ****ing 'hood. You can't let them run their mouths like that all the time when they are nothing but trouble.
The big gal from SC should miss more than 1 game. That's unacceptable. And both coaches, as good as they are, need some class. A LOT of class. That was an embarrassing display, women or men I don't care.

I will just go to the Washburn games. True student athletes. A lot less cost for me .

I am getting closer myself. Have not watched an NBA game since they bought into BLM hook, line and sinker. Now, college amateur sports is being destroyed with NIL and portal. I've always loved the NFL but if it wasn't for KC I wouldn't pay them any attention. MLB is just boring. Not even interested in college football anymore. Luckily I have some grandkids to watch in youth sports.

The pitch clock has made the college game 1000% better. It's honestly hard to believe how much more enjoyable the game is today.
