  • OSU lighting them up now.

    • I think we should be pulling for OSU. The W over OU is worthless and won't get any better. Anything that minimizes the loss to OSU is a plus.

      We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.

        Good, especially since my Dad is an OSU alum and I was brought up disliking OU.
        Its a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.

                      • The late turnover by Woodard was pretty sad. OU had the game won, would have been shooting FTs. He just lost it, trying to go 1-on-1 with Evans. All he had to do was take his time. But, that's what OU is this season, find a way to lose. Maybe Tulsa will pull out a couple wins and get their RPI under 100, that seems to be the only hope for a top 100 win outside of ISUr.

                          Per Warren Nolan Tulsa is at 106, Colorado State 125, and surprisingly to me Loyola has snuck up to 111. So with some luck we could have 1-2 opponents be top 100 (Loyola would obviously be the biggest with a chance for 2 wins).

                            Tonight is a big night for our potential resume, CSU and Loyola both have coin flip games that would go a long ways towards a top 100 RPI. If Loyola can win at MSU tonight, it seems reasonable that they will finish top 100 if they make it to Saturday in St. Louis. CSU winning tonight at home against Boise State would also go a long ways to them moving into the top 100.

                            • Per RPIForecast:

                              Tulsa has a ~29% chance of finishing the regular season at 17-13 or better against D1 opponents. 17 wins projects an RPI of 87.1. 16 wins projects an RPI of 103.2, which would be within striking distance of the Top 100 entering the AAC Tournament.

                              Colorado State has a ~27% chance of finishing the regular season at 18-11 or better against D1 opponents. 18 wins projects an RPI of 89.6. 17 wins projects an RPI of 105.4, which would be within striking distance of the Top 100 entering the MWC Tournament.

                              Loyola has a ~20% chance of finishing the regular season at 20-9 or better against D1 opponents. 20 wins projects an RPI of 87.7 and may involve losing only to WSU (at Chicago) and ISUr (at Normal) down the stretch. 19 wins projects an RPI of 103.7, which would be within striking distance of the Top 100 entering Arch Madness.

                              Oklahoma, LSU and the rest have lottery-esque odds of improving from their current tier and are not worth analyzing. Tulsa, CSU and Loyola are our primary non-Shocker rooting interests over the next 5 weeks.
