Kyyle23 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 QUOTE(Jimbo @ Jan 29, 2007 -> 03:04 PM) Last 5 years at Kansas: 2 final fours 1 elite 8 1 national championship game 0 titles, comes with the territory. SIU is just another midlevel school who has no implication after the sweet 16, if you even get that far. ESPN is at the Phog on Saturday night...Prime TIme Kansas!!!

How does this thing even work? I dunno, but it's the same thing with Marquette. Of their winning streak, the USF victory Sunday was the worst game they played (they probably should have lost), yet the Coaches Poll moves 'em up from 20 to 15. I guess it has more to do with other teams losing, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly the point. The MVC is not the Big Ten. Therein lies the difference, i.e. term mid-major! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After this game, Illinois basically has a shot at one more quality win and they're not winning in Bloomington. U of I really needs this one, badly. i can agree with that. i interpreted the "do or die" comment as more of a general program shot (jimbo's good at those ) than being in relation to tournament hopes. as it relates to tournament hopes, this game is pretty important, especially considering i give illinois no shot at indiana.

Actually it almost is. The way i see it we'll lose at IU and at Iowa, and that'll give us 7 losses. I keep hearing that if we're 9-7 in Big Ten play and maybe win one tourny game, we'll make the tournament. We'd have to win the other 6. So yeah, you need to win at home, and this is against a decent opponent. A loss here certainly makes the...the...the...NIT more of a reality.

greasywheels121 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 I'm pretty psyched about tomorrow night's game, though I'm in the top of the cave (balcony). There's been a grass roots pitch for a white out tomorrow night, we'll see how it turns out. It should be a good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redandwhite Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 The White Out will fail, almost to the point where I'll just wear my crimson Indiana apparel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 I'd wear white. There's no reason not to. I think it's going to turn out pretty successful, as though this wasn't formally suggested by the athletic department, the way it's being promoted/advertised is just the same as it was for the two games last year. It's not as good as Penn State's white outs, but I think it still looks pretty tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 OSU had a pretty good white out going against MSU. Didnt help much though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
