Iowa has lost 3 of their last 4 by 3 points. Two of them they had really good looks to win at the end of regulation. So close to winning 5 of their last 6.

I'm waiting for you guys to help us hit rock bottom.

Down go the Buckeyes

 

rough week for the Top 5

 

Who even deserves to be #1? The answer is not SDSU.

 

It'll be Duke, because they're Duke

That's who I was forgetting.

I really could've done without Purdue winning. ND has to stay in front of Wisconsin in the tourney pecking order or they'll lose their Chicago slot and probably get launched far away again.

 

They've been blown out by three un-ranked teams in their last 10. They're 19th in the Pomeroy rankings. They shouldn't be a 2 or a 3.

St. John's has beaten four top 10 teams this year at home and ND was without its 2nd best player in that game as well as the Marquette game you reference. I think that's a valid data point especially since every Purdue fan I know has pissed and moaned all year about Hummel being injured.

I'd say you are a 4 seed. But, that's all off of the eye test. Although this year there isn't a lot of good teams.

So, you justify your bitching by referencing how pissy and moany Purdue fan bitching is?

I wonder if their 2nd best player was out for the other beat-downs ND has received this year? I think their average margin of loss is close to 20.

butters, TT, and other mizzou fans--word is KU/MU recruit Ben McLemore got kicked off the team at Oak Hill.

 

He's definitely going to KU now.

 

 

I don't think he'll be eligible to play anywhere. I doubt there's even enough KU pixie dust to make that happen.

 

I was just kinda waiting to be let down with him a la Releford, so I'm not too bummed to hear that. How would him not playing HS ball make him ineligible though? Did he get kicked off for grades or also get kicked out of school? Hopefully they can still find someone, I'm half convinced they need the next Tiller more than they need an offensive dynamo right now anyway, so maybe it'll work out.

 

Just an update on this question RE: eligibility--both the rivals and scout recruiting gurus have said McLemore was already in the danger zone when it came to qualifying. Leaving Oak Hill makes the likelihood of him getting his academics in order seem unlikely, according to them.

I don't see how this Iowa team win in a place like Champaign. Illinois is struggling but they aren't losing at home to Iowa. I could see Iowa beating them in Iowa City if they played now.

I normally would agree with you. I just have an odd feeling the worst loss is still coming for this group. I sure hope not.

If Weber goes to the bench and runs OSU up and down the floor they will beat them Tuesday. Especially with OSU only having one day off between games.

So you're saying we won't win

Cal Aaron Rodgers U stormed the court after beating unranked UCLA in overtime. I'm sure the Cal basketball team loved all the topless nerds storming the court.

Indiana fans stormed the court in an act of solidarity

The last time that the top four teams in the coaches poll all lost in a week was the 03-04 season. That was in November and two of the teams (Michigan State and Arizona) ended up not being that good, and were first-round outs in the NCAA tournament as a No. 7 and No. 9 seed. The other two teams were UConn and Duke, who met in the National Semis with UConn winning the title.

Went to Chapel Hill for the weekend and checked out the Dean Dome on Saturday for UNC-Boston College. Pretty cool experience and it's something that every fan of college basketball should do in their lifetime. More specifically, the museum is something that every college basketball fan should check out.

 

The game itself was poorly played, but at least the finish was decent.

Quite frankly every team that makes the tourney has round 1 or 2 exit written all over them.

 

I wish the UCLA F4 teams with Afflalo, Love, etc would have been happening now. They'd have dominated the field in March and April last year and this year.

Tom Crean spazzing out on twitter about the game time for their game at Illinois:

 

I just heard the craziest thing. It must be Ashton Kutcher and his PUNKED show or a April Fools joke a few weeks early.

I heard the Big Ten network is moving us to play at Illinois after we play Wisconsin at 9 o clock Thursday at 11 on Saturday. IN THE MORNING

There is no way that could be true is it? What was the 8 a.m. slot taken?

I feel like we should jump in some vans, put the 8 track tapes in, get some cheese sandwiches and have a old school road trip.

I am okay with 1 day in between games on occasion but 36 hours? In a rivalry game? That defies rationalization.

Come on out Ashton. Where are the cameras? This isnt funny . U got me. We have been punked.
