Not disappointed that Baylor is going down.

Looking forward to the Frank/Grant buddy game in 'Bama.

Yeah, the KSU-BU series is tied 10-10.  Surely your KSU BBIQ goes back further than 2 seasons, doesn't it?  Against Bama, Baylor was down 6 at halftime and ended up losing by 3.  The only way that could be seen as humiliating would be if Baylor was a heavy favorite to win.  (Baylor was favored by 2.5)  Speaking of humiliating, Bama losing to Cornell at home would be humiliating.  Squeaking by Augusta St at home would also be humiliating.  As far as Baylor is concerned, they didn't exactly look like world beaters when they only managed a 2 pt victory over Hartford in Waco.

The entire point of my post is that I think Xavier will be a tougher game than Bama.  After today's games, I still think that.

From toughest to easiest.
1. Xavier - Even though this is a home game I put it ahead of the UNLV game.  I just think that Xavier is the best team left nin the non-con and will probably be right up there with Dayton in the A-10 standings and a fringe top 25 type team. 

2. @UNLV - Kruger is a good coach, and I think he will have his boys ready for this one.  KSU has far better talent however.

3.  @BAMA - Pretty talented SEC squad at a semi-neutral site.  Bama hasn't exactly looked like world beaters this season. 

4. WAZZU - I know they were decent last year.  I really havent checked up on them.

I think if we go 3-3(my guess is 4-2) in our 6 key noncon games and post a 10-6 B12 record(I think our ceiling is 12-4) we will get in the tourney.  We don't have to play as many RPI killers and we shou;dnt lose to them like last year either.

Agreed.  Maybe less bummed about 2-2 than you but it's hard to judge given your questionable decision not to qualify how bummed you would be with an emoticon.

I thought both Alabama and Baylor looked like sh*t.  That game was painful to watch.

They aren't bad, but I won't put them at better until they play Louisville tomorrow.  Their best game has been against SIU, while Dayton's losses are to pretty quality teams.  Aside from Willis they have pretty balanced scoring.
