  1. We just won the gold. Wow great point, I wasnt even thinking about that. Spain has to be in mourning.
  2. 8:42 left, Cincinnati has yet to cross the 30 point threshold
  3. no bitching here, they don't deserve to be in. Just an observation about how many bubble teams have improved their standing over the weekend so far.
  4. I don't know, I kind of like Colorado over both of those guys. Colorado has the toughest SOS, more top 50 wins, a ton more top 100 wins (and a .500 record), and no bad losses. The strikes against them are 1) poor road/neutral record, 2)worst RPI of the 3, 3) 7 of their 8 top 100 wins were against the disastrous Pac-12 conference (other against Georgia) Colorado: RPI: 72 SOS: 71 Top 50: 2-3 (both wins Cal) Top 100: 8-8 RPI 150+ losses: 0 Road/Neutral: 5-7 Belmont: RPI: 64 SOS: 234 Top 50: 1-3 (win over Marshall) Top 100: 2-4 RPI 150+ losses: 2 Road/Neutral: 10-6 Davidson: RPI: 65 SOS: 180 Top 50: 1-3 (win "at" Kansas) Top 100: 2-4 RPI 150+ losses: 2 Road/Neutral: 9-5
  5. I agree. I actually took another look at their resume today, I was impressed. I'd be ok with putting them a little higher on the S-curve
  6. Saturday night dude
  7. Northwestern started the day as the 2nd team out of Lunardi's bracket and at the end of the day they are now not even in the top 8 teams out.
  8. Remember the first game back from the All Star break, we had EVERYONE healthy and available? It was a great feeling, and it made a lot of us think that this would be the period where our team came together for the stretch run. It took all of 12 days for us to have 4 rotation players including 3 starters out again.
  9. Gotta love 3 starters and a key bench player all sitting at the same time. Rose is probably going to put up 50 tonight because him and Boozer are the only even slightly competent offensive players in the game tonight.
  10. lol now Nantz is destroying Michigan for this drubbing, openly wondering how Michigan could have won a share of the Big Ten title with a team that is clearly much less talented than Ohio State and basically saying that Michigan doesn't belong with OSU and MSU. It may or may not be true but its more blunt than I typically expect from these guys.
  11. 71-44 Ohio State. Yikes.
  12. It's pretty clear that the refs have a blatant bias towards Kentucky and Iowa
  13. Ugly game UM. Quite satisfied with reaching the semis though. Not exactly a surprise that Ohio is more talented than us.
  14. Likely 6-9 month recovery. That puts him back sometime between September and December.
  15. This sucks...the Twolves fear that Rubio tore his ACL tonight. If true dammit, I wanted to see that team sneak into the playoffs.
  16. cause it's a great story? it WAS a great story. now he's just an okay player if people like him, great. i just don't understand the people who are relishing his failures or are upset that he's padding his stats Have you lived in America long? This country anoints people when they've accomplished little, hype them up until he/she hits peak exposure and then it's a race to see who can tear him/her down the quickest. Lin isn't at all the first person this has happened to and definitely won't be the last.
  17. Cal has a decent RPI but I don't think it's a lock that they get an at large bid. They only played 3 Top 50 RPI teams this year and lost all 3 by a combined 57 points. The PAC 12 is having by far the most bizarre major conference season of all time. The entire league seems to be evenly matched all playing like marginal NCAA bubble teams and non able to step up for more than a minute to reach the top of this trash heap. I say they cancel the PAC 12 championship game and give the spot to Northwestern. At least they won 1 game against a Top 25 RPI team.
  18. Great win tonight. Were down 2-1 until 7 minutes left in the 3rd when they scored 2 goals within 90 seconds, and then added an EN goal to seal it. At least we know if the Hawks somehow made the Finals and faced the Rangers, we'd have the mental edge over them :)
  19. Does anyone else think that the firm use of "Top 25/50/100" wins is kind of silly? I was just reading that NC State came into the week 0-8 against the Top 50, which was a major blow against its resume. But after everything that happened during the week, they now have 4 wins against the Top 50, which supposedly is a huge bump for their profile. But the teams they beat awhile ago (Miami x2, Texas) are still the same damn teams, but now ranked 48th and 49th instead of 51st and 52nd. I know you have to draw the line somewhere to compare 100 different teams evenly, but still there has to be a way to take those borderline top 50 wins into consideration.
  20. I'm pretty sure I'm putting Cincinnati way too high but look at what a run they are on. 9-2 in their last 11 games including wins over Syracuse, Georgetown, Marquette, Louisville and Seton Hall. Only losses were @ Marquette and @ South Florida. They now have 5 wins this year against the top 20 RPI teams, and 7 against the top 40. Their biggest problem is that they lost to something call Presbyterian, but that was all the way back in November, so I'm willing to overlook that one.
  21. Purdue's floor at this point, I feel like, is a 9. Their ceiling would probably be a 6. Just total guesswork without any numbers in front of me though. I WILL HAVE ALL THE NUMBERS IN 90 MINUTES. AT LEAST, FOR WHOEVER SENDS THEM TO ME. Working on mine now.
  22. Well they will probably be in Dayton for classes and stuff.
  23. god, you're the bitchiest bitch that ever bitched Thanks sweetheart
  24. Just so I don't do a ton of extra work, which of the 5 steps for today do you actually want us to send to you? Just 4 and 5 right?
  25. Weird ass OT... Teams combined to shoot 15 FTs in OT, and none of them came from a shooting foul. Also, of the 30 points scored in OT, 28 of the points were from 3 pointers or FTs Also, Michigan scored 17 points in OT, which is only 3 less than the 20 they scored in the first half of the game.
