  1. We've got called for a technical foul just using our eyes this year
  2. The Big East is so deep this year though...
  3. Seton Hall and St. John's in overtime right now. Could be a big win/win for us.
  4. Updating intermittently throughout the day.
  5. 0-9 Tier 1 wins. Makes complete sense why they should be in the field. Nebraska? The Big Ten is down so their win doesn't count.
  6. Michigan is looking real good right now. Don't care though because our first round game is against Penn State tomorrow. Gotta win that one first.
  7. I can only foresee self bans happening right now unless the NCAA actually steps in for once during this whole debacle. Should make for an interesting Selection Sunday.
  8. It sounds like some bubble teams and having some players sit out this weekend due to FBI allegations. Could make for an interesting weekend for us.
  9. I'd have to disagree with this. It certainly would change the equation from only needing one win in the Big Ten tournament to two. That's something we've only done once and we've never made it past Friday. But you're right, Penn State not a "tournament lock" game.
  10. The bracket was just released last night. Why is this thread still even open?
  11. Big day today. LET'S GET TO WORK! Saturday's Games of Interest: Michigan/Maryland - going with the Tier 1 win; #4 seed? we need to beat PSU anyway Marquette/DePaul - need DePaul to step it up again Providence/Georgetown - need Georgetown Seton Hall/St. John's - win/win situation here Baylor/TCU - tough one, but I think I'm going with TCU here Louisville/Virginia Tech - another tough one, might go with VaTech Boston College/Miami - win/win LSU/Georgia - UGA is likely more than out of the dance Oklahoma State/Texas - down with Texas Illinois State/Loyola-Chicago - somebody's gotta knock off L-C Villanova/Creighton - RPI, RIP, whatever USC/Utah - going with the better of the bad options Notre Dame/Wake Forest - ND should be done, but just in case South Carolina/Mississippi State - knock off MSU Ohio/Buffalo - knock off the RPI magicians Texas A&M/Vanderbilt - need Vandy Northern Colorado/North Dakota - RPI boost Delaware State/Howard - will we see a winning streak from DSU??? Kansas/Texas Tech - sign. whatever. SIU-Edwardsville/Eastern Illinois - RPI boost Washington/California - could really use some help from Cal Syracuse/Duke - knockout punch? Arkansas/Alabama - tough one, might go with Alabama Kansas State/Oklahoma - 7-game losing streak anyone? they're still in unfortunately UAB/Middle Tennessee - go UAB South Dakota State/Fort Wayne - don't need SDSU getting an at-large bid Vermont/Stony Brook - somebody needs to beat Vermont North Texas/Florida Atlantic - RPI boost Old Dominion/Western Kentucky - beat WKU for good measure Arizona State/Oregon State - why not go for OSU? St. Bonaventure/VCU - beat the Bonnies Louisiana Tech/UT San Antonio - RPI boost Louisiana/South Alabama - somebody knock off Louisiana Missouri/Kentucky - not sure it matters at this point, so beat UK Auburn/Florida - may not matter, but going for Auburn UMKC/New Mexico State - beat NMSU Long Beach State/CS Fullerton - RPI boost Arizona/Oregon - just for good measure Sunday's Games of Interest: Michigan State/Wisconsin - knock MSU to #2; if that's out of the question then go UW UCF/Temple - RPI boost Furman/East Tennessee State - knock off ETSU Marist/Canisius - as if we didn't get enough Marist hoops in life Illinois/Rutgers - going with Illinois since it was such a bad loss UCLA/Colorado - need some help from CU Penn State/Nebraska - no brainer Florida State/NC State - knock off NC State
  12. I had a similar thought, but when it comes to the law they are usually given benefit of the doubt until convicted. So probably not?
  13. Get excited for some Friday night hoops!
  14. It sure was beneficial for us this season.
  15. Slightly skewed. There are 32 automatic bids, so they don't have to be better than you. They just have to win their conference. But again, "How can you watch a Nebraska game and say with a straight face there are 36 at-large teams in the country better than them?"
  16. Here's the likely scenario: We beat Penn State and beat Michigan. Lunardi: "Well, we can't have a 10 loss team from the Big Ten. The conference is down."
  17. People complain just to have something to complain about. I Iemember VCU's squad when they made that run in the tournament. They were just a fun team to watch and their team dynamics were on point. Come tournament season, people will change their tone and jump on the Nebrasketball train.
  18. More and more information is starting to trickle out: https://sports.yahoo.com/news/exclusive-federal-documents-detail-sweeping-potential-ncaa-violations-involving-high-profile-players-schools-103338484.html
  19. Friday's Games of Interest: Wofford/East Tennessee State - need ETSU to drop Marist/Niagara - our 2nd favorite opponent to help our RPI Ohio State/Indiana - only on here to try to get OSU that #1 seed Saturday's Games of Interest: Michigan/Maryland - going with the Tier 1 win; #4 seed? we need to beat PSU anyway Marquette/DePaul - need DePaul to step it up again Providence/Georgetown - need Georgetown Seton Hall/St. John's - win/win situation here Baylor/TCU - tough one, but I think I'm going with TCU here Louisville/Virginia Tech - another tough one, might go with VaTech Boston College/Miami - win/win LSU/Georgia - UGA is likely more than out of the dance Oklahoma State/Texas - down with Texas Illinois State/Loyola-Chicago - somebody's gotta knock off L-C Villanova/Creighton - RPI, RIP, whatever USC/Utah - going with the better of the bad options Notre Dame/Wake Forest - ND should be done, but just in case South Carolina/Mississippi State - knock off MSU Ohio/Buffalo - knock off the RPI magicians Texas A&M/Vanderbilt - need Vandy Northern Colorado/North Dakota - RPI boost Delaware State/Howard - will we see a winning streak from DSU??? Kansas/Texas Tech - sign. whatever. SIU-Edwardsville/Eastern Illinois - RPI boost Washington/California - could really use some help from Cal Syracuse/Duke - knockout punch?

  20. Seton Hall just won their suspended game against Providence.
  21. Side note after seeing the updated bubble watch... I don't even care about the double bye/#4 seed at this point. That doesn't matter. It's either (1) beat Penn State and live to see another day or (2) lose to Penn State and make miracles in the unrespected Big Ten conference.
  22. It was 1 yesterday. I think our highest was 16 at one point.
  23. He likes to claim he has some inside information from the committee on certain matters.
