Why is the #17 ranked team a 12 seed???  Would rather swap spots with St. John's.

Everyone seems to think Belmont will beat Wisky.   :pray:

http://kenpom.com/team.php?team=Utah%20St.

Best win is over St. Mary's. Pretty crappy schedule. Got handled by Georgetown. Played BYU close but lost.

but they are 30-effing3

Yeah, and BYU was 30-5 when we played last year with much better wins and a great player.

Utah State can beat us, but they aren't a bad draw.

If Idaho can do it, we can do it  :cheers:

If Harvard and San Francisco can do it, we can do it. :cheers:

Do they still believe that they will win?

Glancing at the profile, we are pretty much playing Nebraska. Very similar styles.

What's their style? How do they play?
MARTIN: They run, they're deceptive. If I had to compare them to someone in our league, I'd say Nebraska. I think they're very, very compatible with Nebraska on how they play, personnel, style of basketball, everything along those lines.

Can we beat the same team 3 times in one season? 4 if we play Wisky?  :runaway:

We can just use Penn State's blueprint. Nothing like a 44 possession game.

Nebrasketball will be high octane, up and down hoops in the Big 10.  NU played at 65 possessions in Big 12 games, faster than any Big 10 team, and the average pace of Big 10 games was 62 possessions.

Gregg Doyle has these guys to the sweet 16, and Mich St to the Final Four.

All shenanigans aside, that's got to be extremely embarassing for a USU fan, right?  That this fat slob is the spritual leader of your fan base?  Disgusting.

A 5 seed has advanced to the round of 8, 9 times in the 00's
