Bucky and SLU

[jsglow]

Are both in critically important games right now.  After an outstanding Badger win yesterday they are up on IU while SLU and Butler are also involved in a tussle.  Assuming MU is still clinging to the #4 line, that may be in jeopardy if both WI and SLU win as most experts have them a bit below us on the S-curve.

The ironic thing is that if MU were slide to the #5, I think it very likely that our site might the be within driving distance rather than out west as a 'low' #4.  Interesting next hour.

Personally, I think UW over IU would put them real close to us.  Not convinced that SLU over Butler moves them more than a spot or two up the S-curve with a win.  Now, they beat Butler and VCU tomorrow?  Then they might climb that high.

As of now, I still think we cling to a 4--I think OK State and Arizona are both still behind us at the 4/5 line cutoff, and are also done playing--so they'll be the first to drop if some combo of UW, SLU, UNLV, and UCLA keep winning.  Also hope that Louisville takes care of Syracuse, hopefully keeping them still behind us as well.

But, the margin is getting thin right now.

If Bucky wins the B1G Tourney that means, by the always objective and correct 'Transitive Power of Basketball', we have bested the Big Ten.

But seriously I will be even more frustrated if that happens. Seriously Indiana!? You are gonna let Ronald McDonald, Flat-top Evans, and friends beat you??

Look out for SLU.   Rick lives on in this team and I predict they go a long way. Final 4???
