Play In Game: Cal Poly versus Texas Southern

I know we don't have an elite history, but it always surprises me how many people think WSU has no history. As if that Final Four and two Elite 8s with numerous top 10 NBA draft picks never happened and we just popped on the stage with a Sweet 16 in 2006.

Also talking as if being in the state of Kansas would be a detriment to having successful basketball instead of an asset. Are they going to say that if some school in Texas is good a football, anyone can be?

Cal Poly a 3 point favorite. Kentucky 4 over KState

Cal Poly is situated half way between LA and SF on the coast. Looks to be very nice weather with moderate precipitation. Largest employers are Cal Poly and California Mens Colony. Looked it up and it is a mens only prison. Two facilities one minimum security and they other medium security with fences wire and guns. Not exactly my idea of paradise but who am I to judge.

So, the Cal Poly grads can look forward to employment at Paradise U, or the local prison. But they probably have avocados in both cafeterias!

I was just checking the Cal Poly board and found this bit of wisdom:

We should beat Texas Southern, no question.

Getting Wichita State is a death sentence though. I don't think the committee could resist potentially having those two stories overlap.

It's strange, isn't it? We're the institution located in paradise, with everything to offer our students, while Wichita State is a middle-of-nowhere school in a middle-of-nowhere state. Yet Wichita State is a juggernaut in basketball, while we're just happy to be here.

If Wichita State can become a big winner with so little history, Poly surely can as well. Get on it, Oberhelman.

I'm pretty amazed that Cal Poly has a message board.

Yup. California is a much better football recruiting area than basketball. The midwest as a basketball recruiting area is much stronger.

Once I sober up off this here meth I'm gonna zing um real good with my "Cal is not a Poly" sign. Shhhewt.

I realize "you are what your record says you are" but I am of the opinion Poly is no pushover if they get past Texas Southern.

[jdshock]

We have more wins than they do combined.

That is a stat of the day if I've ever heard of one. That has to be a first.

Cal Poly grads can look forward to lucrative careers in Silicon Valley. We have many cards to play against Cal Poly, but relative grad success is not one of them.

I used to live right outside San Jose and had a couple friends go to Cal poly. It is a pretty nice area and such. Sports... not sure they even participated in anything. How dare some team/univeristy from Kansas be good or a good place to live? We don't have beach's or mom and dads range rovers...

Everything isn't better in California, take that from a former resident.

So basically it's Terre Haute, California?
