  1. Man... This game scares the living **** out of me right now! 1. Everyone is talking about Creighton like Minnesota is Little Sisters of the Poor or something. 2. They are now going to play more inspired for multiple reasons. Nebraska overlooking them, revenge from last year and now playing for a deceased parent of a player on the team. 3. We are favored on the road will feel like a kick in the nuts to them.
  2. Yep... Whoever bingo is, is a Big 10 hater. Biased polls should never be used. Dude has Clemson as a 5 seed, yet no Nebraska. Need to take that bracket down now with that kind of bias. I know bracket matrix isn't used by the committee, but their eyes probably look at it a time or two
  3. Traveled with the ball = ? That is Pavelka at his finest!
  4. I definitely would take that record for sure!
  5. Real Time RPI Only has a losing one game in our Next 14 for a 20-2 start to the season 20-2 Start
  6. I did... some old guy was ripping the lady security guard after that!
  7. Iowa and Wisconsin are both way overrated
  8. Correct... You got to make the most of their idiocy I bet PeliniTheCrutch over on that board $50... After we beat Clemson everyone over there assumes that they must suck. He made the comment that Clemson is going to lose 14+ games. I said I got $50 says your wrong. I will now be $50 richer by seasons end! PeliniTheCrutch: "No doubt a good win. But I’ll take any bets from someone who thinks Clemson will lose less than 14 games this year." Me: I've got you $50 So if they go something and 13 or less I win right? Put it in the books, bet is on PeliniTheCrutch: All losses count. We’ll keep in touch my man! If anyone is unaware Clemson returned 85% of their Sweet 16 team from last year, including 4 starters. Nebraska is good and Clemson is going to win 20 games this year without lifting a finger
  9. Omaha Roncalli is way to low. They bring back 90% of their scoring, and Jack Dotzler is a smarter basketball player than Chucky Hepburn. They also have 3 sport athlete Alex Rodgers who is D1 talent for baseball. They are still a talented basketball team even without Dotzler handling the point(Injury in football). With the Orr brothers along with Taiden Red they still will be a threat before Dotzler gets back to win some ball games.
  10. Not to mention 4 of those are from one team
  11. True as it sits right now, but if the Big 10 chokes again in the Big 10/ACC challenge like we did last year that could all change.
  12. I still don't like him. That quote still shows me he is looking for a way to keep them out!
  13. I took a screen shot of the box score 10 minutes into this game and we had 0 assists. That tells me our guys are not playing team ball right now and makes us easy to defend. That stat has got to change moving forward or we are in for a long disappointing season! Roby needs to start playing like he is the best player on our team... Not the 4th option. I don't care that Palmer was All B1G... I don't care that this is Copeland's Senior year... I don't care if this is Glynn's team. Roby needs to start making a statement and stop being a selfless basketball player. ^^^ With that said, the other players need to recognize that in order for us to succeed. Palmer I'm looking at you!
  14. I was pretty close too, but not 1pt close. I am pretty sure there are going to be multiple folks under 10 here. Neon Budreau - 85-61 You - 84-62 Me - 88-65 (Me getting the spread correct keeps me right on your heels)
  15. I don't like it... Let me explain why I hate Iowa... I hate them with a passion! With that said 8. Oregon 3-1 (Loss to Iowa 77-69) 25. Syracuse 2-2 (Loss to Oregon 80-65) 28. Iowa 4-0 (Beat Oregon 77-69) ^ No explanation works here other than the formulas are a joke Edit: Forgot to mention Syracuse also lost to Connecticut who is ranked 85th
  16. Yeah considering we have won our games 106-37, 87-35, 80-57 and 85-62... 15 spots is not enough IMO. Our average margin of victory is 41.75, and now the narrative is Texas Tech is our first true test. Yes I heard those exact words on the radio this morning. Was Seton Hall not a test? Give me a break! I do think if we beat Texas Tech, we will get some love. The problem is that it shouldn't take a Texas Tech win to get the love we deserve. I am starting this complaint early, because I know down the road people will have more and more excuses of why we don't deserve this or don't deserve that. It is a vicious cycle that annoys the hell out of me!
  17. Kenpom's formula is a joke. I am so tired of seeing Syracuse and Villanova sitting ahead of multiple teams that deserve to take their place. Villanova got beat by 30+ points to Michigan and then also lost to Furman. Yet they are ranked ahead of teams like Clemson, Nebraska, Texas who are clearly better right now. It is just terrible, and the RPI is even worse yet they are part of the determining factor to get into the NCAA tournament. I am going to keep my word and make my own formula, because your school name ***Cough Cough*** Syracuse should have no relevance in if you make the tournament or not
  18. 9 Big 10 teams in the Top 26
  19. This is actually a legit question IMO. Copeland and Roby do not scare me, but Palmer does. There was actually a section at the end of the Seton Hall game that was legit very selfish move on Palmer. It was right after Roby came in for his final little run. Palmer was sitting somewhere around 25-27 points, and he passed on feeding Roby for a wide open 3 for an off balance contested 15 foot jumper. In my head I said no big deal, but if we are in a tight game down the stretch Palmer needs to make that damn pass!
