2014-15 Games of Interest

[1972Shocker]

I think I'd just like to see it sort out in such a way that we get the best possible strength of matchup. If Illinois St turns out to be the highest RPI, that's who I want to face. Until tomorrow plays out, we won't know if WE are the 1 or 2 seed, but depending on that, I'd like to see the best RPI team be on the menu for St. Louis. Right now, that seems to be Missouri St, then Illinois St, then UNI again. It seems that Drake and Evansville are also within striking distance if they both win. It's completely up in the air, but that's at least one way to root.

The thing is that all 4 of the play-in teams have RPI's ranging from 224 to 286. Not sure who play among that group is going to make a whole lot of difference in our NCAA seeding one way or the other.

There should be a rule that 200+ RPI teams are disqualified from participating in the conference tournament.

I think there should only be 200 teams in D-I anyway. 350 is way WAY too many.

Then we don't have half of our conference anymore :)

Sounds alright to me. Lol

Creighton loses to Seton Hall 66-67. SH makes layup in last moments. Gibbs did not play.

I do not think I can fly any higher today than I already am. But this definitely doesn't dampen my mood.

[Dave Stalwart]

Can someone let me know when I can go ahead and say the big 12 is overrated?

[jocoshock]

Iowa State backs away from KU and a share of first in the B12 by literally throwing the gamr away. Loses 60-70 to KState in Manhattan..

#12 Iowa State loses at K-State 69-70. That's a quality loss that will probably propel them ahead of us in the standings.

[ShockerPrez]

Ok ok.

KState is CLEARLY a tourney team.

The Horns holding on might send me into a climax I may not ever come down from.

Indiana State 60 - @ Bradley 52

Illinois State 69 - @ Evansville 67 in OT

@ SIU 63 - Drake 57

@ Loyola 65 - MSU 51 (Milton Doyle played 9 minutes today. 6 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals)

Pollsters are gonna be really confused now...

Oklahoma? Are you really gonna be willing to rank them higher than KU and Iowa St? You're going to have to. That's what over rating a conference all year will cause when they start stumbling down the stretch.

Or you can admit it's over rated and start dropping these 8-10 loss teams back where they belong.
