jason2486 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 I've been seeing things on twitter about Tom Crean sticking up for us on ESPN during halftime of a game tonight. Did anyone see it/able to give a quick recap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did anyone see it/able to give a quick recap? I didn’t, but if there is anyone who knows the toughness of playing in the Big 10 week after week, it’s him. I think it’s also pretty telling that coaches have been sticking up for us as well. jason2486 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did anyone see it/able to give a quick recap? I saw it. He started off by sticking up for PSU and Nebraska. Lunardi basically said "nope" and he went back to the well again sticking up for Nebraska and Lunardi was still like "nope" and that was kind of the end of it. But I gotta say, I *really* like Tom Crean as a studio guy for ESPN. jason2486 and HolyBobpilgrimage 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, Lunardi I believe is hating on Nebraska and PSU so much because he wants something to complain about on Swlection Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big red22 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Someone should say to Lunardi if you're wrong about Nebraska, because you're so confident about them not being in. I want you to resign if they make it to the tournament. If they don't make it you can keep your gig and get to use the title "greatest bracketologist of all time"... Deal? I got $50 says he turns down that bet. Edited March 8, 2018 by big red22 HolyBobpilgrimage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomEadesSucks Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 There is no way a ten team league has 9 of the best 36 at large teams.Sorry. Beyond KU, TTU and maybe TCU the rest of the conference is mediocrity at it's finest. HolyBobpilgrimage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad feeling ND is in with a win here. Oklahoma 36/Oklahoma State 89 - 6pm ESPNU OU - 1 1/2 I am not sure on this. It all depends on how the selection folks view OU and I can imagine that is a bit of a polarizing topic. The herd believes they are still in and I am concerned that both would be in with a win by Ok. St here. The flipside is that they both could be out if Ok. St wins today and loses tomorrow, and we potentially need spots to open up that are not currently ours. I am barely going with needing Oklahoma here, but will hold on to hope if it goes the other way, especially in blowout fashion.

tjp21 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Can't believe I stayed up for that game. WSU is terrible. Even though they led for 99% of the game and OT I never felt like they'd win. I think I just heard Oregon led for 70 seconds the entire game. HolyBobpilgrimage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
