So Saturday I am texting with an old friend about the Shox. He lives in Denver now and is a KU honk. I offered that in the event that WSU gets in the dance and if they play KU at any point I'll bet $100 and we'll use the Vegas line at tip off. He comes back with.....no, in the tournament we'd hafta bet even up......

He set himself up to fix the bracket too. Says WSU "may move up as other teams play their conference tournaments" ... Normally it's the other way. Expect to end a seed or two higher according to him.Originally posted by Shockadelica View PostComment

He has read it for years.... in public. There is no question on the issue.Originally posted by Steeleshocker View PostComment

28 on the official NCAA RPI as of this morning. Every metric says we should be a 7 seed or higher.Comment

At least your KU friends will take a bet; mine want points if the game is played in Tulsa. Got to love those Beaker fans, all fluff and feathers until tourney time when the rubber actually hits the road.Originally posted by pinstripers View PostComment

I really think the tune will completely change about us now that we are an auto bid. I think the 8-12 seed discussion is over. People are now going to be looking at us objectively with our advanced metrics and our 30-4 record. All the sudden those things will get talked about like they were important all along.Comment

According to the power ratings (which generally line up with Vegas lines), KU would be about a one point favorite over Wichita State on a neutral court. So you wouldn't really miss out on much.Originally posted by pinstripers View PostComment

We will be the first team ever to go from last four out or not in at all... and jump all the way to a 5 seed over the course of a week, without doing anything new like beating a top 10 team at home. We just merely won a few more of the MVC games they complain about us playing.Originally posted by Eric View PostComment

oh, I don't care about points, but how gutless are the fans of the number one team in the nation?Originally posted by Wichita Muskie View PostComment

If KU plays a tight first game and then loses in the semi-s of the Big 12 Tourney, WSU might pass them in KenPom. KU is currently 9. WSU is 10.Originally posted by Wichita Muskie View Post
In that scenario, Ken would then have WSU as the straight up favorite on a neutral court. lol. 1 vs 8? Take the 8!Comment

Sagarin, too. There is currently a difference of 0.87 points between KU and WSU in the Sagarin Predictor ratings.Originally posted by Jamar Howard 4 President View PostComment
