how weird is it going to be when they announce us (kstate cats) and there is a "#2" right beside it?

I dunno, you kind of start to expect it, we have a real good basketball team.  It is a constant battle not to take it for granted.

eff that, win in Lawrence and a 1 seed becomes possible.


10% chance we win in larry though.

fatty, I can't wait.  I thank the Lord every day for having an awesome basketball team.  I mean, they are really good.

Will be incredible.  Was hoping for a 5 (maybe 4) seed going into the year.

I honestly thought we would be somewhere around 9

I remember looking at the Bracket Project in 2007 and 2009 sweating it out.

No doubt. 

Hoping for a 4/5 was high end preseason optimism.  Now a 4/5 would mean a poor finish and be very disappointing.

incredible usage.

It's pretty amazing.  Everytime I see the " last 4 in/out" stuff on ESPN I get all nervous for like 20 seconds even though I know I don't have to be this year.  Then I'm all   .

If we get the 2 and make it to the elite 8

we're a 3 seed, which is fine.  that's what we deserve.  don't see us only losing one game (ku) and then getting to the finals in the big 12 tourney.  a 3 seed was beyond my wildest expectations.  now, we cheer for a plethora of upsets in crappy conference tournaments to water down the bracket.

OMG!  I've never gotten the opportunity to do this!  In 2008 I was too shell shocked to take part!

Let ISU win the Big 12 Tournament... that'll do it.

That would buy McDerm at least 2-3 more years though.  Just sayin'.

Yes, this is much more fun than cheering for all Mid Major conf. champs to not lose and thereby taking away at large spots like the last couple of years. 

Nothing is worse than watching Butler or Gonzaga lose a fantastic conf. tourney game and feeling disappointed when the underdog wins.
