I just hope we have a live feed of oscar on Selection Sunday!

This is best case scenario for me provided we get a non-invite. Can you imagine the #exbruce gems that would be flowing out of his mouth  :love:

My gut says we have to make it to Friday in KC to make it safely. 

As a P5 that has the $ to control your noncon if you go soft like we did you better have good wins in the conference and wins on the road.  oscar has somehow coached them up to do both but beating Tech Saturday and losing to Baylor on Thursday smells like a NIT home game to me. 

I just hope we have a live feed of oscar on Selection Sunday!
Just look at the eff me gif when we don't get in.

Oh, Its going to be great.  They've got every reason to keep us out with inconsistency within games, bad home record, etc, etc - BUT - against the soft field there's every reason to put us in.

Weirdest one I saw was espn having Wichita State a 7 seed and CBS having them out of the tournament.  :lol:

 Lunardi has Shockers as a 7 and ILL St as a 12.  Not understanding this. Both teams went 17-1 and split the heads up matchups. Both had 1 other top 100 win. SOS are 200 for Wsu and 162 for Isu.   The main difference is Wichita St 4 losses are to 4 teams that will make the Tourney. ISU has 5 losses and only 1 will make it. 

I would probably say the 2 teams are a 9 seed & 11 seed.

I still think we're in (play in game) if we win tomorrow. Win one in KC and we'll get Creighton in "first" round.

I think that's probably right.

oscar getting his first NCAA tournament "win" since 2011 in a first four game would be such a oscar thing to do.

If we could somehow get an 8/9 matchup with frank I'd be so happy.

Leading by 5 at the half, Frank would walk over to the KSU bench, grab a folding chair and lay out Weber.  Frank would then proceed to coach the cats to a come from behind victory.

Have you guys seen Frank's team play this year? I don't think they're that great, but whatever.

i actually think our team is pretty well suited for the ncaa tournament type of game.  we're athletic and play fast, and the longer time outs would help us recharge. i don't know, maybe i'm just optimistic but i tend to like guard heavy teams in the tournament.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

I'm just not seeing this. I really believe we need a win over Baylor in KC.

Is SC better than us? Yes.
The blowout to Ou is 1 game.  That hasn't been the norm. We've competed pretty well away from home all year.  If DJamer isn't out, we may have 4 wins and 4 close losses in the other 8 B12 games

I would guess it would take a win tomorrow and then on Thursday to get us in.

Tcu and Tech must win B12 tourney.  No breaking news there, Mr Lunardi.

And Yes, I'd be shocked if we got invite with 19 wins. Need that 20th over top 10 team to sneak us in

I think I would have preferred playing WVU, but now not sure who would be our best match up.
