  1. I'd probably drop Purdue even lower than that.
  2. Does the committee take into consideration previous match-ups when placing teams into certain regions? I ask because the proposal in place now has New Mexico and Texas A&M set for a 2nd round meeting and we have already played them this season. Not a big deal, but wanted to bring it up in case that was something the committee looks at.
  3. I don't really care if other fans think he whines. I just don't see what he does as anything more than your average coach. Maybe I'm just blind to it because I like him. To me, the biggest whiner by far in the conference is Scott Drew. And if you want animated, look no further than Manhattan, KS. I fear Frank Martin is going to stroke out on the sidelines some day.
  4. No biggie. Do you have many issues with how things worked out? No, the only thing that looks a little out of whack to me is Texas as a 6 seed. I fully admit my bias here, but I think 6 is too high. I also expect the real committee to seed them too high, so I'm not too concerned about it.
  5. Sorry I didn't get my list in this morning, Last night was pretty crazy and I just got up now hoping to get mine in still. Oh well, I will make sure I get today's list in.
  6. Bryan Davis had a lot to do with the chippiness. I love his hustle, but he causes a lot of problems. It started when he threw a little shoulder into Collins as he was walking to the FT line. I saw a thread on a KU board with a lot of people ripping Turgeon and I was quite surprised. I thought he was well liked there. I know I sure like him and hope he sticks around Aggieland for a long time. KU is a great team and we have showed twice now that we can hang with them. Unfortunately we haven't been able to finish either game. I like our team and think we deserve a 5 seed and should make a legitimate run at the Sweet Sixteen. I think a lot of KU fans think he's kinda whiny. They probably wouldn't mind him as much if he A: hadn't made a big deal about KU not playing WSU when he coached there. B: Didn't seem to constantly whine as aTm's coach. I think in the end, people still like him because he's a Jayhawk, and if Self left, I think a lot of people would list him as their #1 choice to replace him. ETA: Turg is the kind of guy who you love if he's on your side, but he's real easy to dislike if he's not. Very animated, a straight shooter, very fiery. It comes off bad sometimes. I don't really see Turge as a whiner at all. At least no more than your average coach. He is definitely a straight shooter and doesn't go in for a whole lot of coach speak. I know that rubs a lot of people the wrong way, but I like it.

  8. I expected a lot more happiness around here after I saw the Illini had pulled the upset.
  9. Seconded Thirdeded
  10. Quick! Somebody get Charles Oakley on the horn.
  11. That would mean beating K-State and KU (barring an A&M upset today), but I still think a #2 is too high. A 3 seed would be appropriate, IMHO.
  12. Yes. I would love for all these teams to keep losing. And tomorrow I would like San Diego St, Minnesota, Ole Miss, Illinois, Ga Tech, Tulsa, Rhode Island, and Dayton to lose as well. That might just open up a bid for Wichita St. A guy can dream, can't he? :D) Thank you for our coach, by the way.
  13. My boy Acie Law is not looking great right now. :(
  14. Just got home. Who got hurt now? Please don't say Rose.
  15. Only a real man can take down someone 8" shorter and 100+ pounds lighter. That Aldrich dude is a freakin' STUD. :good:
  16. In addition to Larry Eustachy destroying UAB like they're a case of Natty Light, New Mexico-Air Force and Texas A&M-Nebraska are both close and late. :rotfl: The Aggies ended up putting Nebraska away. We were without our starting PG Dash Harris today. He re-aggravated a wrist injury last Saturday. He could play if he had to, but I think they are just going to rest him so he is as healthy as possible for the Dance. I think it is a smart move by Mark Turgeon.
  17. What if WVU runs the table and wins the Big East tourney. Since they were already a 2, do they jump up and snag a 1 pushing 'Cuse down to a 2? I know G'town is a good team, but isn't that two losses in a row for Syracuse?
  18. Any chance you can give us the updated list of teams still being considered?
  19. :rotfl: But why do the two worst teams get a first round bye in your bracket?
  20. This is great... This guy gets booed a BUTTLOAD and it looks like he doesn't let that bother him. Way to go Sori... You did suck last year, but you're alright in my book. At least he can handle the pressure or bitch about it or complain or blame it on other things... Soriano probably doesn't get any racist hate mail because, according to Torii Hunter, Sori isn't really black.
  21. Just sent mine in and only 7 minutes late. :D
  22. Let's go Cyclones!
  23. I apologize but my computer has been killed by spyware. I am not going to be able to do this from my iPhone so I will have to do it first thing in the morning when I get to work.
  24. 75-60 Nebraska :rotfl:
