ol miss, gonzaga and g. washington. all at home or near home.
i think 1-2.
-
hi, I'm a forced conversation about ksu basketball. how are you doing tonight?
-
Tell ya what, I'm hoping for a record with a three and a zero in it. I'll probably still get that, but the opposite of the one I wanted, and it will make me pretty sad.
-
sys, you have this set where people can pick up to 4 options. Contingencies?
-
Who is the 1, Sys.

did you vote, zacker? it doesn't look like you did. you aren't allowed to post if you don't vote.
-
Lizard lips won't have his team ready to play against Ole Miss and George Washington, but we'll be amped up to play vs. Gonzaga and we'll still get destroyed: 0-3 :th_twocents:
-
Who is the 1, Sys.
doesn't matter, it's probabilistic.
-
I went optimistic. We beat Henderson and the president.

Fixed it.
Everyone now, choose wisely.

Didn't know GW was "good"
-
I would totally vote but tapatalk and polls evidently don't get along.
-
Didn't know GW was "good"
i think it's a relative term
-
Didn't know GW was "good"
beat creighton tonight, doesn't have to equal good, but def strongly capable
-
Didn't know GW was "good"
they're ok. better kenpom # than kstate.
i watched part of their win over creighton today. couple of physical bigs that can score if they have room (did kstate recruit armwood, way back when?). good rebounding team. not v. good defensively. pg doesn't shoot. wings shoot. euro big that shoots, hates the interior.

I did not vote because the option I would choose is not up there.
-
2-1, just a hunch nothing I've seen on the court leads me to think this is going to happen though.
We are really small. Are we also getting a mysbig at the semester :fingerscrossed:
-
here's the clams calcs as per clams-
on offense: no bigs = no presence in paint = out rebounded = fewer shots = relying on freshman guards to shoot high percentage every night = losing a lot
on defense: no bigs = out rebounded = more offense for opponent = more fouls on our freshman guards x will spradling factor = losing a lot
including the comment "all at home or near home" makes no difference. there's a whole shitload that needs to go right for this team to win against a decent team.
we're going to lose a lot this season, 0-3 against these 3 teams is the most probable outcome
-
great epi of clams click clack calcs. will tune in next week.
-
I think 1-2 is most likely, but my gut is telling my 0-3 so I went with that.
-
Heart says 2-1, but brain says 1-2.
Went with the heart :eye:
-
We're really bad (see losses to Northern Colorado, Charlotte **not the pro team** and to G-Town by almost 30). 0-3.
-

I cannot argue with this logic.
-
I'm surprised at the number of people still in denial over just how bad this team is. 0-3 with one loss by less than 15 (moral victory)
-

Yup. Head and heart in agreement.
-
0-3 is now impossible. sorry 0-3ers.
-
point of order
ole miss is not a "good" team
still feels good tho
-
Couldn't be happier to be wrong!

"good" was in quotation marks, even though i wasn't quoting anyone.
-
3-0 is there for the taking.

oscar is making this thread into a clown show.

starting to extrapolate, but if we beat tulane and gw, what's it gonna take in confy to make the tourney? not crazy to think that 9-9 (19-12 overall) would make the dance since we''re in the #1 rpi conference, is it?

No its not. And I think the committee would like that the team got better as the year progressed.
-
isu, @osu, bay to close before the p66. going to need to grab some wins in that mix i would think
-
I think 9-9 would require some work in the B12 tourney, barring a win against KU or OSU. 19-12 can possibly get a team in but no team can feel good about their chances at 19-12.

they don't call this place dumbasscity.com for nothing

GW could be the toughest game of the 3. Ole Miss and Gonzaga both had pretty good crowds for our guys to play in front of. There may be < 3,000 people at the game on Dec 31 at 2pm...

We played a NYE game against Hampton a couple of years ago and it was sold out and very loud.

I was preparing to rebut this post then I did a little research. Last season Iowa was .500 in the Big 10, the #1 conference last season, they had 5 top 50 wins and a win in the Big 10 conference; they were 21-12 and winners of their last 7 of 10 and they were left home.
Got this stuff from warrennolan.com btw a great cbb reference site.

I would think it would depend who the nine wins are against. A win against OSU or KU would probably get us in at 9-9. A road win against either would be huge, not that that is going to happen.
But if we get swept by KU, OSU and flood aggies, there's now way we finish 9-9. Cats will probably beat someone they shouldn't on the road (OU, Texas, Baylor) but will likely get upended by someone at home, too. Too many freshmen to be consistent.

This team will probably beat KU in Allen or some stupid crap like that.

I thought we played Tulane in BKN? GW is NYE in the Bram and anyone that bets on the road team on NYE is a tard.

i was at the game, but rewatched it anyways (stud fan) and the announcers made a good point that since Gip didn't play because of "injury" against Northern Colorado the committee would factor that into their decision.

The last time we had <3000 for a home game we played at Nichols Hall. What a tard
-
1-2
It's fun when oscar proves me wrong.
-
I know you're trolling, but I still feel the need to respond. No, we've had about three thousand 3-4 times already this year, and against Central Arkansas I bet it was closer to 2000.
Edit: Well shucks, FSD caught me before I edited it.

while at the troy game, my guess was 3k.

What a dumbass

I voted 1-2. Still seems pretty reasonable.

That was also a Saturday, not a Tuesday. I'll be surprised if the crowd is anything above average for this season.

The OP listed three specific teams, of which we are 2-0 against as of Sat.

yeah I know. We weren't that far from 1-1.
-
I said 2-1. :th_twocents:
-
So did I, but I think GW is the most sure-fire win of the 3.
TEAM 3-0 converts baby!

Yeah. Also, Thomas hasn't been in the lineup for any of our horrible losses. oscar should put him in the starting lineup and play him a bunch if he want to get a good seed.

A lot of dumbasses outed in this thread.

ESPN talking heads are saying 7 get in from big 12.. :pray:

7 in the Big 12 is possible (after the Gonzaga win) but not likely.
For this to occur we need to have 3 teams be punching bags for the rest of the conference.
TCU, West Virginia and Tech would pretty much have to get shut out by the rest of the conference for 7 teams to happen.
Expect 6 Big 12 teams in the Dance.
-
I might tweet @ gary parrish to put us in the top 25+1 if we beat gw. He will mush my face but it will plant a seed.

After Foster's dunk and a Gonzaga win?!? There are alot of fair-weather fans coming out of the woodwork now. Facebook alone can prove this

I voted 3-0 as soon as this thread started! :D

This thread turned out to be quite entertaining.
-
Proud to be an OG 3-0
-
I'm proud of my original 1-2 prediction.
-
I haven't been this wrong since my first post on ksufans. I think it was something about how Bennett would average 10 points
-
i swung and missed. get a little better every day.
-
I voted for 0-3. :Stretcher:
-
Love being wrong like this.
-
I wonder how many of the people who voted 3-0 acutally believed we would do that? I voted 2-1 and was hopeful we would just get that
-
Def an impressive turnaround by Bruceketball, hope it continues.
-
Someone do a January record thread.
-
oscar is laughing his Franking face off at idiots like me right now. Rub it in oscar, it feels good :thumbsup:
-
congratulations to the 3-0 predictors. only 32.2% of the overall sample, but 100% of the correct posters.
-
i had legitimate reasons for my 1-2 prediction. so happy to be wrong! go cats!
-
I just don't feel like my 1-2 prediction was outlandish, even in hindsight. It is statistically pretty close.
-
Well, I stand by the fact that we looked like dog crap when I made my prediction. I simply didn't think we'd improve, which is pretty silly I guess, given they were freshmen and that oscar improved the team during December last year.
-
hey!
it appears some people are still voting, even though the contest is over. that isn't allowed and those votes will be stricken from the record.

I locked the voting for you. I agree that we need to preserve the integrity of the december record v "good" teams thread.

:sdeek:
-
I voted 1-2.
I love being so wrong!
-
I think it's hilarious that people are making excuses for why they voted 1-2. We were all watching the same team, you dorks.
-
0-3 here. :facepalm:
oscar is mushing and :billdance: all over my face.
-
I seriously can't remember if I voted 0-3 or 1-2. Either way, I was wrong. In my defense, the two of the three teams sucked worse than thought.
-
Well if you scroll up to the top of the page, the one you choose will be bolded.
-
I thought we'd lose a competitive game to the Zags. Ole Miss went about how I thought and I thought GW would play us closer. 1 (possibly 2) will be NCAA teams and if not will be in the NIT. At least 2 will likely be Top 50 RPI teams and thus "quality wins" when it comes to the Tournament.
-
I voted 3-0. :Woohoo:
-
i didn't vote. i probably would have voted 1-2.
-
i didn't vote. i would have voted 1-2.
Ofc. Daris with a little thing called integrity.
-
I apparently voted 3-0 and have a huge brain
-
I picked 3-0, because I'm way smarter than about everyone here at dumbasscity. Also, I understand Weber is a good coach and he would get his team to improve with lots of practice time.
-
I voted 0-3 and am in no way embarrassed about this
