for people interested in calibrating their expectations prior to postseason play. 2.5 postseason wins is the equilibrium point, it represents the achievement level at which your current emaw satisfaction would remain unchanged.

So this means that if the Cats win on Saturday, we can accept a 1st round loss to Northeastern Central University?

Win Saturday? That's a good one. Good luck making it to Thursday. The Buffs have your number. If they can't do the job, we will.

Present me something that says I'm wrong. Colorado beat you both times this year. We beat you once and are clearly the better team.

how does you curb stomping a team in disarray at home make you better then a team clicking on all cylinders curb stomping you on the return game?

Dumbass
We split the series. And if you wanna talk about disarray, how about a KU team who has gone through 2 suspensions and 4 or 5 injuries. There have been 3 games this year where every player has been able to play together. No matter. We still managed to finish 1st in the Big 12 for the seventh straight time and #2 in the polls at 29-2. I'm pretty sure that's clearly better than K State. Head to head doesn't tell the whole story.

You're gonna argue this really? Torn meniscus (TRob). Foot issues (reed and selby). Ankle (releford)
I'm not using injuries as an excuse. You guys played great. Pullen had the game of his life. There is NO denying either of those things. But you guys will not play like that against a superior team again.
We're still 29-2. With injuries, suspensions, and all.
I'm not crying.

It takes 4-6 weeks to recover from surgery on a torn meniscus. If that really was what was wrong with TRob, he is a dumbass for coming back so soon, and Bill Self is an bad person who is jeopardizing the poor kid's (a kid with a 7-year old sister and no parents) potential NBA career. I don't think he really tore his meniscus, fwiw.

Got your UNI t shirt on too? I mean, there hasn't been a K State national championship ever. For any sport. Or a conference championship shirt in quite some time.

No. I'm right. Kansas State has never won a national championship in any sport. They are the only team in the Big 12 that can say so. They also haven't won a Big 12 championship in any sport in over half a decade (to my knowledge).

Torn Meniscus which was magically healed 2 wks after 'surgery'
Foot issues for selby? The ankle you mean that your coach called him a FP on his radio program and said it was in his head and he was too much of a FP to play through?
Someone should tell Reed and Releford about their injuries before 3 wks after the game.
I thought Pullen having the game of his life was the excuse for the long overdue 1st beat in Bram. Now he has another?

ok, so something that is a non issue because it hasn't limited his playing time. Also not serious if he is able to continue playing w/o serious repercussions. Note also we don't know when this 'injury' occurred. Likely news to him still.

I just want to make it to the second weekend of the "BIG DANCE". (https://goemaw.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sherv.net%2Fcm%2Femo%2Fdancing%2Fmichael-jackson.gif&hash=dd712b7a02d5dedbb94df6fde7bdbd133f407459)
-
I would be happy with 3 more wins total
-
3.2
-
I can't give a total, too many combinations.
But I want 1 minimum this week. And 2 next week.
Then I can be satisfied (mostly) with 3.
-
If we make it to the XII finals, I think only 1 win the NCAAs would be a disappointment.
But you are probably right. 2 wins and I'm sad, 3 wins and I'm content.
-
God I rough ridin' hate KU Fans.
Anything less than 5 wins from this date going forward is :goodbyecruelworld:
Anything more than 5 wins is :kstatriot:
9 Wins would be :emawkid: :emawkid: :emawkid: :emawkid: :emawkid: :emawkid: :emawkid:
-
I would be happy with 3 more wins total
No you won't
-
Doing something in the Big 12 tournament would be nice, winning it would be great.
But at this point I just want to make the 2nd weekend of the tournament.Getting to the Sweet 16 is a mark of quality programs. From there you never know, match-ups, etc. make things crazy, but 2 years in a row in the 2nd weekend would be a significant step IMHO.
-
Yeah you're right KSU didn't have to deal with any suspensions or players (at one point they were starters) leaving the team. It's valid when it happens to KU but those facts are lost on them when it happens to KSU.

This is my minimum too. And there is no other combination. If we win the confy tournament, but don't make the S16, I'll still be a little disappointed on the inside. S16 is mandatory and so is beating CU/ISU.

FWIW I was an athletic trainer and a torn meniscus doesn't usually take 4-6 weeks to recover from. They go in arthroscopically, clean it up and many athletes are back in 2 weeks......about the time TRob took to come back

Any combo of 3 wins and I'm feeling pretty good. 2 is not so great. Feeling kinda crappy. So, yes, I agree on the 2.5.

3 Wins is weak.
3 Wins either means we beat CU & KU and get bumped by a worse team in the NCAA's in Round 2
or
We beat CU & lose to KU AGAIN, but get to Sweet 16 before losing (acceptable, but seriously, I don't want to lose to those fucks any more)
or
We lose to CU and make another run to the Elite 8
Of the three scenarios above, the ONLY one that I'd accept right now if you gave me a choice would be the run to the Elite 8

Not gonna lie, a run to the E8 would be pretty dope.

Not gonna lie, a run to the E8 would be pretty dope.
That one and the winning the B12 one would actually put me well ahead of where I am now. That's why it's 2.5 and not 3.

So... Is everyone in on the whole losing to Colorado thing then? I would like an E8 run too.

It's just not that simple for me. Winning 2 and 1 would be nice and all if one of the first 2 is KU, but I don't think I'd be overall satisfied without reaching one of the major goals (Big 12 tourney champs/S16). 3 wins could be great (E8) or leave me feeling empty (2 and 1).

eff you man, I was merely pointing out that 3 wins is a chicken crap 'expectation' from this point. It is BFD. All scenarios are weak.
Saying 3 Wins is fine is like saying "Jim Wooldridge is an OK coach, I mean, it isn't embarrassing, but we aren't exactly going anywhere special with him either."
eff that. We've been there, done that as a fan base. 3 Wins is fine, but to say that you are 'fine' with 3 wins is chicken crap IMO

Maybe I'm in the minority, but 'playing to seed' doesn't sound all that fun, considering that aside from St. Johns & maybe North Carolina, there is no other team in the country on a greater run than KSU over the last 3-4 weeks.
And in my definition 'playing to seed' is just what I said...BFD. Do what you are supposed to do, and no more. Forgive me for setting my expectations/hopes higher

i'm not sure that there is a reason to be as mad as you seem to be.

I dunno. He has a point. What if we were all that mad? Angriest fan base in America needs a little flame.

anything less than 9 and I will rough ridin' lose it.

The thing is, I'm not that mad...I'm just VERY surprised that the expectations are so low on this board. Everybody has their chest puffed out in other threads & other boards, but in here it's like timidness rules. It makes no sense to me. I understand trying to keep expectations lower so you aren't :goodbyecruelworld: when you don't meet them, good lord, I'm a lifelong Royals, Wildcat & Saints fan, so until last year, I've had my heart ripped out every season.
It did kind of piss me off to be called a dumbass for explaining why I think that 3 wins is weak and why I do have higher expectations too, but whatever.
It's all good...I'll be @ the Sprint Center tomorrow night :emawkid: on the 'Cats...hopefully I'll be in the street afterward trying to buy tickets for Saturday too :ksu:

Whoa, whoa preseason polls project us to win 7 from here. Agree on 8 at least? :dunno:

I'm still not over last year's failure :frown:

we are much more knowledgeable about hoops on this board. it's not even debated by the other boards at this point. has nothing to do with keeping expectations down, it has everything to do with actually having intelligent conversations about basketball.

Yeah, he lost me when he compared thinking Wooly was okay to expecting us to play to our seed this weekend (4th beating 5th and losing to 1st) and making the Sweet 16 (as a likely 4/5 seed).
I'm good with high expectations, but we can win 3 more games and still be a very good basketball team. 1 win this weekend and 2 next week with 2 losses would mean we lost two games to Top 5 teams in the country to end the season.

This,
Go ahead and keep emawing your powerespect butt off though dude. :cheers:

3 wins is more like a push. pretty meh at best and frankly i think it would be rather disapointing. the only reason to think otherwise is if you are putting it in the context of the whole season, then i could sorta buy into this. but with how we are playing now its hard to do that.
summary: 4 wins or bust
-
glad we didn't blow one of our wins in the 66 :woot: :ksu:

I think pullen's 38 and absolute dominance of taylor factored alot into it. If we would have got smoked by 20 I would have been really upset.
