Title: 3-7
Post by: jesmu84 on March 08, 2025, 01:36:28 PM
MU went 3-7 against the top 5 in the conference.

That's bad, considering how the non-con went.

My personal confidence in the BE tourney and NCAA is low.

As stated elsewhere, haven't beat a top 50 torvik team since 1/3.

I think, clearly, this is a bubble team who overachieved in the non-con

Haven't beaten a team with a winning record since January 24.

7 seed, one and done.

The tv talking heads say X has work to do to get a ncaa bid. How fortunate for MU, a desperate X in rd 1. Deserve what you get, I suppose.
would love a 3rd shot a Coach Dracula, for sure.

We lost 2 top 40 picks and didn't replace them. I thought a 7 seed would have been a really good achievement heading into the year. Turns out we may actually beat that a little.

I think it'll be a 6, even with a loss to X

Last quad one win (of 5) was 12/21 at Xavier.  This is not a strong tourney team.

That's a solid perspective.

And, it's interesting, but if MU would have had a crap non-con and turned it around in conference, I know I'd be feeling a lot better going into postseason.

But, the non-con results ended up being fool's gold.

Expectations, timeline, end result, etc.

At end of non-conference season we were talking about possibility of as high as a 2 seed, beat 3 of the top teams in the big 10, possible big east regular season title, Kam a possible All American.

Now it's like...."well we are playing better"

I think that's a pretty darn disappointing end to the season. Nice thing about college ball is a March run cam change that pretty quick

Agree. Marquette did beat Georgetown on March 1st and Georgetown though missing Sorber has a winning record 17-14. We might of have been banged up. Keep hope alive.

Our top wins are waaaaay better than St Johns. Their best win was Saturday.

A very Wojo type statement, as he was blasted for the February fades.
