Pretty good overall article. Though I have to laugh at the "Top 97" references. Come on now.. Let us have the good break that CSU squeaked in to the top 100

Maybe more so since it was on the road.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe BigPlay.Com is a guy named Tim Kruger who hosts Bluejays Banter radio show and is the publisher of bluejaybanter.com. Yes, those Bluejays.

Think you're right on this. Tim regularly finishes in the top third in accuracy among the bracketmatrix crowd, and was top 10 a couple years ago.
P.S. I'm not Tim or related to him.

Didn't take long for him to get called out on it on Twitter.

The "Top 97" thing was really arbitrary from Eisenberg. He's one of the best out there though, along with Luke Winn of SI and John Gasaway at ESPN. I'd have to search, but he's typically pretty complimentary of us on Twitter.

Yes like i said, overall good article. He was just trying to make a point

They're admittedly a sore bunch over there. WSU is doing things and has done things in the Valley that they aren't sniffing in the BIG EAST.

I smell a whole lot of butthurt and insecurity with little ol WSU sneaking up on them in the polls in one of their most historic years ever.

A weak bubble candidate this year. I dislike sCUm fans. Hope they get blown out game one of the tourney.

Apparently "every conceivable metric" to at least one CU fan is the RPI.

Someone should ease the internet restrictions at the asylum.

I don't think many CU posters are aware that other metrics exist outside of RPI.

Really. I'm not kidding.

CU will be one and done, bank on that.

You certainly don't have to bank on it; it's simply a reasonable assumption, historically.

WSU has won 9 games in the tourney the past 4 years; CU has won just 12 in their entire history, and to count to 9 tourney wins one needs to go back to 1964.

Lunardi said he didn't believe any team with a sub .500 record in conference should be eligible for an at large berth. Bless him.

Yep. A large portion of their fanbase (and by large I mean dozens of striped overall wearing delta bravos) are still heavily stinging from

A)Leaving the Valley and then #WatchUs be the media darling every year they've been gone, including #WatchUs be ranked every year
B)Realizing H-O-R-S-E isn't recognized by the NCAA
C)Having their Valley swan song obliterated by our Final Four (Creighton moved where? I'm sorry Gregg, you were saying about Ron and Fred?)
D)Speaking of Ron and Fred.....Douggiewho? #Irrelevant #ForgottenOutsideOmaha
E)Having the biggest game ever played in their home arena involve not 1 but 2 teams from Kansas
F)Praying that someday they can win 2 tournament games in the same season and be only like 5 tournaments behind us in that category
GGG)All of the above

D) maybe I'm missing your point, but DM averages 10 points a game for the Bulls and a significant amount of minutes.
