Title: Meh, no big deal.
Post by: nicname on March 10, 2011, 04:18:42 PM: I mean maybe we lost an opportunity to assure ourselves a 5 seed and possibly a 4 with a win over KU. CU has our number, they are a tough match-up for us. On to the tournament. A ring would have been nice, but the P66 isn't all that important.

Post by: Powercat Posse on March 10, 2011, 04:21:27 PM: We are a 6 seed at best now. Yes there is a chance that we could fall to a 7 and i really don't want that.

Post by: kcchiefdav on March 10, 2011, 04:25:33 PM: Turns out that we're gonna play teams in the NCAA's who have good players too. If we can't play D on the perimeter, we're mumped. CU with 11 assists and 16 TO's today and still manage to shoot 58%. 58% is unheard of unless you've got a guard who is dishing in the lane and dropping dimes for easy lay-ups. If you are interested in winning your NCAA Bracket pool, don't pick the cats to win more than a game or two.

there was a whole thread to help people calibrate their expectations posted in advance of today's game.

cu was sagging, like isu did during the last game. interior passing is really risky against a defense that is intent on denial.

We could have been a 4 seed. You should gaf about that. Playing to seed would have meant the S16.

I think it's possible. The RPI certainly supports it.

Post by: kingkongcat on March 10, 2011, 05:05:50 PM: We will be a 6 seed matching up with a (IMO) st. mary's, va tech, mich. st. type team.

Post by: Stupid Fitz on March 10, 2011, 05:06:50 PM: I can't decide how I feel about this. I hate losing of course, but lately I have been thinking how I would handle a first or second round loss in the NCAA now that they have been on a roll. This may have helped lower my expectations for next week. :dunno:
