Not interesting at all. Some people didn't like Crean. Who cares. We got spanked by IU and they have been struggling. Thats why IU scores appear now.

Oh I get entirely why they exist now, they are an opponent of ours this year.  The wheels have fully come off Archie’s wagon at the moment.  But have to give a guy 4 to 5 in my opinion to see what he can do.

It was strange seeing IU scores last few years, almost always when losing and similarly Va Tech scores but usually only when winning...by same peeps.  Cool correlation experiment.  😂

Time to stop worrying about strength of conference/strength of schedule.  This is what Bubble Teams worry about in hopes of building their resume.

We are 17-3 and just outside the Top 10.  We take care of our business, and our seed will be very good.  If we win the Big East, our seed will be even better.  Cheer for MU to win, and Villanova to lose!  It's that simple.

We are not a Bubble Team, which also means those of you cheering for UW because it helps our resume, can immediately STOP with that, too!
Exactly—we are in a different position now. We kick a$$. Other teams (3-4) are discussing who they want to win amongst teams above them in the standings. Not us.
Next game is all that matters.

I used to lurk the last few years here and a few posters always had IU scores.  It was kind of interesting to see.  Now, they don’t seem to care about IU.  Weird.

Wow same.  I’ve been too—waiting for someone to call out IU.  Weird.

You (in all your identities) are doing some serious TC/Buzz trolling these days. I don't pay much attention, maybe you can enlighten me. Does Georgia's Crean still look like the run of the mill coach that Indiana canned and is Buzz still on target to be the best coach in Virginia Tech history (after being the 2nd best one in MU history)? What are you "peeps" (lol-who talks like that?) telling you?

KSU looked OK in the first half, but they only scored about 4 points in the first 6-8 minutes of the second half and ended up getting beat up by a not very good A&M team. They've been playing so well lately too. I couldn't believe how bad they looked.

Was at the TAMU game. TAMU switched to a zone in the second half and it completely flustered K-State. They were getting open shots but couldn't couldn't hit water from a boat today. Not good for Marquette, but I feel good enough with our resume that I was happy to see my adopted team pull out a big win.

If you look at their schedule its almost impossible to find where they might win. They could lose out the rest of the season.

Archie a tough second season after a getting off to a very good start.  Something wrong in that locker room, eh?

On the plus side. Maybe Louisville being up by about 100 on Wake will help our NET

I thought that all goes into figuring our strength or in this case(Indiana) weakness of schedule.

Which Indiana team did we play??

The good news is we only have 3 losses.  The bad news is that those losses are not looking so good now.  Also we haven't played Nova yet.

But a lot of our wins look impressive from that non con.

Also, the more Kansas loses the better chance we got at Des Moines
