January: Other NCAA Games

Same coach that called out the Edey foul discrepancies. He knows ball!

Baylor about to go down at home to TCU will further mush our KP. We better start winning. These OOC wins are dropping in value like rocks of late.

Baylor goes down at home to a bad TCU team. Awful weekend for UConn.

KP 30, Net 32, divide those by 4 and our seed looks a lot closer to 8 than it does to 4. Texas, Baylor and Zags all look like frauds. Dayton has been tanking, KP 66, Colorado is 90. Our best BE win is at home in OT to Xavier.

This team needs to come out and show something and soon.

It is apparent that many have a different opinion than I do but I am not concerned at all with how teams that we've played (and will not play again) do the rest of the way. How we end this season will be entirely on us (and whether we can or cannot figure things out). Nothing that Baylor, Gonzaga, Memphis or Texas does the rest of the way will help or hurt us in figuring it out. That will be on us.

By WAB our best BE win is at GTown and then at Butler and then home Xavier.

Xavier KP 47

Butler 90 and was amidst losing 9 in a row

Gtown 76 and has lost 4 in a row including DePaul at home

You might want to run a quick fact check.

To the other post, who we are in the tourney is not predicated by our past schedule, but how we are seeded certainly will be. Matchups do matter, especially with this team, so unless you look forward to playing Duke or Auburn in the second round after we face a team of equal seeding in the first game, I’d say worth watching. 2011 and 2014 are outliers not the norm.

"best win" and "beat team we beat" are not the same. You said the former. WAB is a good measurement for best win because it factors not only quality of the team but also location. It's a lot harder to win on the road than at home.

I could well be wrong but as I see it, we will end up being good enough or we will not. Either outcome will be entirely on us. It will not matter if we end up as a five seed, an eight seed or any other seed.

I get it. Control what you can control.
