If k-state wins no more games this year, was it still a successful season? I honestly don't know what I would say.
How about just one more game? Does that make much of a difference?

Sweet 16 or bust.

For most here, I'd say K-State needs 2 more wins. 1 more win will satisfy some, but there will still be disappointment. A first round loss should be disappointing to everybody.
I think the season expectations for most college basketball fans are pretty simple; play good basketball during the season to get a high seed, then in the tournament at least play to your seed. The Cats gave us a bonus conference title this year as well, so that helps, but at the end of the day most college basketball seasons will be judged by March, and you set up your chances of success in March in large part by what you do during the season.

Getting crowded on the ooooold burnitdown bus these days.

It's a successful season no matter what happens. The conference title was very nice even if the league was pure dogshit.
-
I am pleased with the conference championship, because it was necessary to fulfill the prophecy. oscar is following his script.

This.

I will lose my crap if we lose our 1st game of the tourney.

I mean, I hope we win. I would prolly be really mad if we lose. I would feel like the season was a failure.

There is no scenario that won't involve you losing your crap.
-
I said before the season this team should win 25 games and make it to the sweet 16.
-
The season is successful
-
a conf championship makes the season successful, however it doesn't mean you shouldn't be irate if we don't make it to the s16.
-
If we exit early, we'll be all meltdown for a day or two, then say, oh well, we won a title after being picked 6th.
If we make the Sweet 16, we can avoid the meltdown.
Either way, we'll ultimately decide this was a successful season.
-
can we be clear about why we were picked 5th or 6th or whatever by the coaches? it's because they all thought oscar rough ridin' sucks and Baylor was going to be good, not because we had a bad team coming back.

but we can use that as a reason to :cheers:

I think it was more a new coach/new system thing, but your right in that they drastically underestimated oscar, and that we'd have been picked higher with Frank. Probably 3rd or 4th.

FAN's T-shirt makes this season a success
-
It's fun that we're all agreed we won't win anything but are arguing about how long until we should lose until celebrating. Thanks, successful season!
-
CHAMPIONSHIP OR BUST!!!
Seriously though, I really want that second weekend. Those 4ish days between games are so much fun
-
Pete is right. This is exactly what was predicted. Wait'll Will plays significant minutes and Angel has to completely carry the scoring.
-
The important thing is we're happy knowing we're going to lose at a respectable place.

:dubious:

Generally I'd say the season so far is a success. Could be more, but we got more in the pro column than the con by a lot. I'd like to think in terms of basketball our goal should be compete for and occasionally win a conference title, and make it at least to the second weekend in the tourney. We've done the former, now it's time to do the latter.
-
Sweet 16 or bust.
This is a talented team full of upperclassmen. Agree 100% here.
-
Assuming we get at least a 4 seed, we will be in KC and playing 2 teams ranked lower than us. Yeah, if we don't make it to the second weekend, fire oscar, bring in the other oscar.
-

Don't be ridiculous.
-
It already is a successful season. Anytime you make the NCAA tournament it is successful.
This team should be competing for a conference title and it did and got a share. As long as this team doesn't lose the first round, I will call it a really good season.
This could easily be a great season and we can't rule out the chance of it being the best season ever if we get hot from 3 for an extended period.

any time you are an 8 seed or better it is a successful season, no matter what happens in the big 12 and ncaa tourneys. really, any time you qualify for the ncaa tourney, it's been a successful season.

ig it depends on your fanbases' standard

agreed

Already successful. The math demonstrates:
major conference title joy > sweet 16 joy
major conference title joy = elite 8 joy
major conference title joy < final 4 joy
First title since 19-freakin-77. You should be enjoying this more.
-
big 12 champs bros.
-
No way we lose the first game, haven't been upset all season.
-
Sweet 16 would not make me happy, but I wouldn't be mad, either.

This is a good post.
-
major conference title joy = elite 8 joy
I'm sure it was the nature of that team and the Xavier game, but I had much more enjoyment in 2010 than now.

probably not after the ISU loss on senior night. *might be thinking of the wrong year.

Agreed. But I definitely agree it had more to do with the circumstances than the achievements.

K-State Confidential :love:

Didn't read any of this thread but I will not be happy with a Ro32 exit.
Will be super happy with a s16.
Once football is here I will be satisfied with the season and winning the B12
-
been a great year, but not getting a sweet 16 would be awful and a horrible sign for the future.
-
27 wins and winning a conf title = been a great season so far
Losing the first game would hang a cloud over this successful season, a black cloud
Losing in R32 will bring dissappointment because we are playing in our backyard and we have played well at Sprint
Get to the Sweet 16 and what happens....... happens
-
I don't think all conference titles (or sweet 16's or elite 8's) are created equal, but it's impossible to not consider a season a success when you get either a conference title or sweet 16.
Conference titles will almost always tell you more about the overall health of the program, though.

football fans/fake combos are incredibly insufferable. I pity your completely dumb ass.

Sweet 16 will happen.

I enjoyed beating OSU in the tourney about as much as I've enjoyed any sporting event this year with maybe the exception of @OU.
And even saying that, I remember how fun the Rodney game at Baylor was. Watching it on ESPN3 on delay just added to the suspense, because I could see there was no OT and still had no idea WTF was going to happen.
-
No matter what happens from here, this season has been the most successful season we have had since 2010 and a long time before that. If we make the S16 it will be more successful than 2010 and the most successful season we have had since before I paid attention to KState basketball.
-
success. what is success?
can someone or something be full of success?
success.

If oscar beats Whisky, I’ll drive the #teambruce bus.

I'm still on the oscar hate train but I'm partying in the beverage car.

pretty much this.
the season has been a success no matter how you look at it. if we lose in the first round it will be disappointing but it doesnt change the season as a whole
we have decent recruits signed a couple of fist pumping wins a trophy and a 4 seed im not sure how else to look at it
