No one goes undefeated

[ShockTalk]

Teams since 2009-10 with 25 wins each season (includes number of wins currently this season)

Duke - 19 wins
Gonzaga - 21 wins
Kansas - 18 wins
Ohio State - 19 wins
Saint Mary's - 18 wins
Syracuse - 23 wins
UNLV - 16 wins
VCU - 19 wins
Wichita State - 25 wins

We can take UNLV off this list as they won 24 games in 2010-11. Nevertheless, this is quite an impressive run for our Shockers. Teams not included in this list: Kentucky, Michigan St., North Carolina, Louisville, Florida, San Diego, Memphis, and, of course, Creighton.

I've added total wins to the list below.

Duke - 19 wins (143)
Gonzaga - 21 wins (131)
Kansas - 18 wins (149)
Ohio State - 19 wins (142)
Saint Mary's - 18 wins (126)
Syracuse - 23 wins (144)
UNLV - 16 wins (116)
VCU - 19 wins (130)
Wichita State - 25 wins (136)

I believe WSU also has the most total wins over this time period by non-BCS teams.

WSU - 136
Gonzaga - 131
VCU - 130
SDSU - 129
St Mary's - 126
Memphis - 124
Butler - 122
Creighton - 117
UNLV - 116
Xavier - 106

This is an incomplete listing, I'm pretty sure, as I just threw in Xavier (due to name recognition) who has only won 25 games once during this time. Feel free to add other non-BCS teams that should included in this list.

WSU only made the F4 because they got hot at just the right time, had a pushover bracket for getting to the F4, and all their opponents had off shooting nights. The results this year prove that anyone can go undefeated if they schedule just right. The W over #13 St. Louis in their house doesn't count because SLU isn't in a BCS conference.

I just proof read my post. I think I may have a future as a sports journalist!

Call the board police! Aargh's ID and account have been hijacked by KC!

You (and the rest of the world) should remove Memphis from this list. Those wins were vacated and do not exist. They went 0-1 in 2008.

Memphis still didn't go undefeated in 2008. Really wish people would quit spreading the lie.

Weird that people think that, I don't seem to remember them winning a single game that year...

[Shock Top]

I wonder if Jeff ******* said "Take away Derrick Rose and Chris Douglas-Roberts and see how Memphis plays." in 2008...

Dude is an

Still and always will be a terrible methodology, but here's the update with 12 games left:

Chances of Shoxers going undefeated with 95% chance of winning each game -- now at 54%! At 95%, we now have a greater chance of going undefeated than not going undefeated, but barely.
Chances of Shoxers going undefeated with 80% chance of winning each game -- now nearly 6.9%

Using JH4P's terrible "Shockers have a zero chance of going undefeated" methodology, here's the update with 1 games left:

Chances of Shoxers going undefeated wtih 95% chance of winning each game -- now at 95%!
Chances of Shoxers going undefeated wtih 80% chance of winning each game -- now at 80%!

BAHAHAHAHA

(Sorry JH4P, I had to post this to rib ya a little.)

I know KH4P's answer (the same as KC's answer). I'll be glad if I'm proven wrong.
