The road losses are a big deal to some, probably most.

ESPN bubble watch has us as a lock

I think Palm is basically saying we are a lock too, but he under values our good wins because they are all at home.
so beating the zags in wichita doesnt count but beating a team like isu or baylor in kc does?
yes
but he said neutral court? seems to me they are the same scenario  :dunno:

Your feelings are just hurt because I called you a dumbass for when you were being one earlier (and most of the time).  This isn't about the luchando pans, naranja or otherwise.

The last 6 games had ridiculously slow pace with great defense the last four. It's almost a different team style wise.

He benched two fifth year seniors and started two true frosh in their place.  We are 4-2 since the change (had lost 8 straight prior to it) with three of those being road victories (current kp #18, #54 and #94; lost to #14 home and #56 road, beat them home). 

The young bloods have really started to figure it out on defense and have been nails on offense.  The starting lineup is now all guys that return next year.  Exciting for the future potentially.  They are very confident.

You should see the dossies I've worked up on these young bloods.  Under the category of Nails? they each have six stars out of a total of six stars (I'm working from a six star system). :eek: :bball:  #wherethehammersat

you should consider dumping the stars and go with a six nail system, it could be the new rotten tomatoes.   #jumpstarter

When will the bubble talk end? We could lose out and still make the tournament.

KU as a 1 seed with 7 losses and us as a 9 seed with 9 losses doesn't reconcile with me. Aren't most of our "good wins" the same?

KU beat Duke and they beat Isu, OU and Baylor twice.   And they have the #1 non con SOS to go along with playing 18 games in the best conf

Yeah, I get that. Just struggling with the diff between a 1 seed and a 9 being road wins at isu and ou.  The point being, if they're a 1 surely were a 5 or a 6.  Or if we're a 9 how the eff are they a 1.

Our SoS is in the 20s out of 300+, is that substantively different than 1 of 300+?

How can a team with 7 losses lay claim to a higher seed than teams with 3 losses who beat them?  RPI is fine, but shouldn't be the end all be all of the NCAA tournament. 8 years or so ago Missouri State was a top 30 RPI and didn't get an invite. This year RPI is all of the sudden gospel. Dumb

FSD still doesn't get it. We pay, like, everyone.  Why do you think we can't afford a new FB stadium?

I guess I forgot that most people don't know what reconcile means.

I guess I forgot that some people think 'reconcile' is a brainy word.  Also forgot that FSD thinks anyone should GAF about what does or does not 'reconcile' with him.  Look up games played and wins against RPI top 25, top 50, top 100, etc.  The answers you seek are contained therein.

Its only a brainy word if you don't know what it means. This is why I'm puzzled as to a)why you don't thinks its brainy, and yet b) clearly don't know what it means

I guess all this prompts the following two questions:

1) when was the last time a 7 (8 or 9) loss team was a 1 seed?
2) what have past #1 RPI sos teams been seeded?

I'm still trying to reconcile the following 2 queries:

1.) When was the last time you got your ass kissed?
2.) When was the last time you got your dick sucked?

I suspect the answers to these questions are the same as above - rarely, if ever.

If RPI quartile win metrics are the benchmark for #1 seeds, whisky fans out to be storming the ivory tower to BID, because they've been getting snubbed for years

Mich St was a 1 seed in 2000 with 7 losses.  That is the last time (and maybe only time)

With Cuse loss tonight.  I think KU/Wisc are the best 2 candidates to be the 1 seed Cuse just gave up.   Some peeps also like Duke... but here is why I would say no right now=

KU = 7 losses, 12 wins vs top 50, RPI 3, SOS 1
Wis= 5 losses,  8 wins vs top 50, RPI 5, SOS 2
Duke=6 losses, 5 wins vs top 50, RPI 8, SOS 9

FSD doesn't like it when other people act like total dickholes towards him :ROFL:  it's ok, FSD, I'm only joking.  Let's reconcile.
