Oso planning to go pro
I think the BE gets more than 4 teams in. In fact, I think 6 is much more likely than 4.
Doctor VI do think talking 10 conference wins is a bit silly with a 3-1 start, including playing at two tough places. Wanting to see success in Feb and March is fair, but thinking only 7 more conference wins seems crazy to me.
What happened last year has as much to do with this year as being 0-4 in close games "proved" Shaka couldn't win close games. Last year is immaterial to this year, as is everything Shaka's previous teams did, as is anything having to do with Wojo. Enjoy this team. If it wins a lot and advances in March, it will not be because of Al or Wade or Buzz. And if it loses too much and fails, it will not be because of past failures.
I’m not sure that’s accurate. It’s many of the same players. Hopefully they learned from last year and more experience is going to lead to a stronger finish.
Enjoy the moment?!?!?!?!Harrumph. ESPN has MU as a 5 seed.
Great. That’s a loss
A 5 seed would be GREAT …But, wasn’t MU a 5 seed in theJA Morant debacle??
Absolutely right. No way that only four teams get in. The league is underrated every year. Of course, the experts said Creighton was the best team and we were a ninth place team.
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.
Highly intriguing (and meaningless, I know) pairings for MU in Lunardi's latest bracket.Dropped Marquette from a 5 seed to a 6 seed, facing Greg Elliott and 11 seeded Pitt with the opportunity to face 3 seeded Texas in the next round.Greg/MarquetteShaka/TexasHmmmm.
I know it is early and it doesn't matter but still hate when bracketologists do this.Marquette 12-4Baylor 10-4Marquette head to head winMarquette KP-17Baylor KP- 25Marquette NET- 23Baylor NET- 29Marquette- 6 seedBaylor- 4 seedDo they even try?
Yes, we do, and this is evidence you don't understand the process. I almost never look at head to head. Honestly, I don't care about it at all unless there's no separating the teams. On 1/1, I had Baylor as a 4 and Marquette as a 7. Baylor's best wins were UCLA & Gonzaga on neutral courts, both better than Marquette's home win over Baylor. They had no losses outside Q1, while MU lost at home to a sub-50 UW team. The resumes weren't even close.Had Marquette beat Madison and Providence, then maybe that head to head comes into play. But they didn't, so it didn't. You'd have to be really lazy or biased to put Marquette ahead of Baylor.
NET no matta
I'll stick with my opinion on Gold. He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.
