Purdue V Bucky ...

[Heisenberg]

Full disclosure, I'm a Bucky hater.

So what do we want to happen tonight?  Possibilities

Purdue knocks off Bucky and hurts their tourney chances, and maybe it knocks them out.

Bucky knocks off #5 Purdue setting up the possibility that MU moves up at least one more spot.

Or, screw it, an asteroid hits the kohl hole tonight, and we're done with both!

A loss to Purdue doesn't knock them out

A Purdue loss does minimal to help Marquette

Obsessing over Bucky after the season Marquette had is weird at best, pathetic at worst

And doing so on the Hangin' at the Al board is a reason for a permaban.

I'm rooting for every team above us or on par with us to lose. If nothing else I want to be able to irrationally gripe about a three seed. And irrationally gripe I will!

Thanks for taking the time to scold the OP. Lord's work.

Superbar.  At best.  Really just in the general college hoops thread.

[MuggsyB]

This is a tough one Heisenberg but I'm rooting for Purdue.  I suppose it is similar to the decision you made to poison Brock with Lily of the Valley?

[Dickthedribbler]

My first choice would be the asteroid. But given that it's somewhat of a long shot, I'll take Purdue in a rout, instead.

This topic makes us look pretty weak. Just post it in the NCAA thread if you want to discuss the game that has minimal impact on MU. It's not a big game to us. Badgers are fighting to avoid finishing in the bottom 4 of their conference.

[94Warrior]

For seeding, it may help us if Bucky wins, but probably not.

For your soul, it may help if Bucky loses and the chant of 'NIT, NIT' plays in your head as you drift off to sleep each night.

Which is more important? It's  a personal decision -  There's no wrong answer.

[Jay Bee]

Would be if Becky had to play MN n their 2 games after Purdue.

[wisblue]

Very simple.

I always root against the Badgers.

II get so upset thinking about the varmits. How could they beat us this year?. How can they ever beat us? We always have better talent. The BE is far superior yo the Big 10. Gard is a terrible coach. An even worse recruiter. How could they have won their conference 2 out of the last 3 years? How could they get into more NCAA tournament games recently than Marquette?
It's troubling and mindblowing.

All that is is in the rearview mirror, my friend. This bus is headed Uptown.

[brewcity77]

Wisconsin wins, probably in. If they lose, they're probably done. Feels about as close as you can get to a regular season play-in game.

[PJDunn]

Boiler up!!  More importantly... let's take the Johnnies to the woodshed. A nice butt kicking in the fiserv would be divine.

That crap has been going on for years.  At the same time Becky fans like HCSmooth tell us that no UW fan considers us on their level, or MU even crosses their mind - except for one day per year.  They act like we are irrelevant to them.  Clearly we are in their head, and have been since 1977.
In spite of Wojo, I will always be thankful for Duke in 2015.

BTFU!!!!!

Kind of thinking there is a divide on this topic that correlates to two things 1)the thread about how old you are 2) where you live.

I'm old, and I live in Wisconsin.  I hate the Badgers.  For two reasons that align with the above 1) i grew up when they were completely irrelevant and now they think their s#!t doesn't stink and 2) for the last 20 years due to sheer numbers in the state, they have dominated the sports media.

So, I LOVE to gloat and I don't have a problem at all if anyone thinks it's "little brotherish."

I hope they lose by 20 tonight.

Got to agree with this.

I'm old enough to remember the early 1980s when Wisconsin athletics was a joke. They were nearly last every year in football  (thankful Northwestern often went 0-11). Camp Randall was half full for games, and often the crowd was not watching the game.

In basketball, Bucky went from 1947 to 1994 without a single NCAA appearance.

This shaped my opinion of them as a laughingstock, and it has been hard to shake.

History says they are a second-rate athletic school that lucked out with Bo Ryan and Barry Alvarez. Now that they are both gone, a good year is 5th, and an average year is 9th.
