Oh hi.  The luchando naranja y azul pans are going to be on that motherfucking bubble if they win four more in a row!  So suck it all you haters who didn't believe because I know who you are and I won't forget.  #bubblepoppin

Okay bit of a set back there with the historically bad home loss to Michigan, but we're on our way back.  Beat IU today.  Michigan again!  Those fuckers are in for it.  Dicks will be kicked off meatchicken bodies at an incredible rate.  Maybe that Posse fucko will weigh in here, but once the Breads slap the dicks off Michigan and beat Nubb or the SUCKeyes we are right on that bubble.  #nailinthatatlargebid
#bubbthumpin

So Brad Evans of yahoo sports says the breads are looking "rock solid" for the ncaas if they beat meatchicken.  I like the cut of this guy's gib and am very confident in his credentials to make this call.  #nailsversusrocks #solids 
My prescience is fully engorged.  It throbs with righteous accuracy.  I am sated.

How do you feel about those guys rus?  I tell you what if we beat them I will get butt ass naked in this very thread.  Total free for all party inferno right here.  Confidence is rising.  Feels good.

Don't care, honestly. I watched their game against Arizona and that's about it. But it would be great if the breads won. I just read a David Foster Wallace essay about growing up playing tennis in Philo and he mentioned playing the rich kids from Peoria in tournaments and I thought of you.

Bread Evans said that?  Sounds like confidence is rising, aldough Philo apparently thinks he's a baguette.

Sorry Breads.  I think it takes more than just beat Michigan.   ILL went only 7-11.   You have 4 top 50 wins but only Mich St win is a win over a good seeded team (Iowa gonna be a 9, Neb a 10/11 IMO and Minn is out as of now).  Big 10 is solid conf and ILL played tough conf sched, but your non con SOS is 182 and only top 100 win in non con is Mizzou

New Palm bracket: http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/bracketology

Would take all the way to an E8 matchup with Duke, because the Shocks want no part of Baylor in the second round.  WSU has not seen a team with the size and athleticism of the Bears.

Also, look at the KSU v. Wisconsin second round matchup.  The Cats just can't avoid the Badgers.

I called it 2 weeks ago, KSU vs. Wisconsin in Milwaukee.  I don't have much confidence we'll win our 1st game tho so prolly won't matter

I know that it is all a crap shoot until they start hearing from the insiders in the committe, but How can Palm have Wisconsin as a 1 seed and Lunardi has them as the last 2 seed?

Sorry Breads.  I think it takes more than just beat Michigan.   ILL went only 7-11.   You have 4 top 50 wins but only Mich St win is a win over a good seeded team (Iowa gonna be a 9, Neb a 10/11 IMO and Minn is out as of now).  Big 10 is solid conf and ILL played tough conf sched, but your non con SOS is 182 and only top 100 win in non con is Mizzou

pfft, I bet you every dollar I got that Iowa won't be a 9. They have lost 6 of their last 7.

Chill.  That is where I had those teams as of y-day.   It was just a reference point trying to tell the Breads that only 1 of their 4 top 50 wins in the Big 10 was a against a good seeded team.   I probably should have said "probably about a 9" instead since tourney weekend isn't done yet.

FWIW.... Last year the Breads went 8-10 in the Big 10, lost 4 of their last 6, and got a 7 seed.  No one had them any better that the 8vs9 game.    Iowa getting a 9 seed would shock me a lot less than ILL getting that 7 seed last year

So on Monday, Lunardi had us as a 8 seed and Ok St as a 10.
Ok St beats almighty Tech.   Ksu and OK St lose close games to good teams that are both gonna be top 4 seeds.
And Lunardi now has OK St 3 spots higher than us on his "overall seeding rankings"

Gotta Love Lunardi rationalization.    By Sunday, I wouldn't be surprised if we somehow end up higher on his rankings that Osu....lol
