This doesn't make a bit of sense.  Does he have our last two weeks inverted in his head?

His makes a little sense, he at least had us ranked last week.  All of these guys outside of one dude are completely screwing ISU and I love it.

It's because everyone in the world places far more value on big wins than bad losses. (see our OU discussion a while back). ISU has basically done nothing of note other than beating KU and us.

Oh I know, I was firmly on the right side of that debate.  It's not just us, I think ISU is firmly a top 25 team.

oh, I agree, but they have done nothing remarkable other than not having a "slip-up" in conference play, which is extremely rare for non-elite teams.

I don't think ISU could ever beat Baylor or Missouri on the road. And I doubt they would ever lose to OU either at home or on the road. Point being, our range for any given night is huge. We have a huge upside, and a very low downside. ISU's range is much smaller. Any given game I expect them to play as good as the 3rd or 4th best team in the conference.

I disagree - of course they could beat MU on the road. I mean they led most of the game last night.

But I agree with your general point: they are far more consistent. Having a pair of 5th year seniors in your back court along with a first-team post will do that.

k-state is a massive underseed, doug thinks we deserve a 5.

identical to wisconsin who is a 4-5

played a good schedule, beat bama, beat LBSt, swept mu and beat BU.

can play our way up to a 5 or 6 seed.  don't worry about the seed #, worry about the tournament match up.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

Gottlieb has never been shy in talking about not really liking women's basketball, I would guess it is something about that. You could go back and look at his tweets, but that would take awhile.

I'll assume from both your posts that his disdain for wbb is what started her dislike and his comment about SHU not making the tourney is why the tweet.

I thought is was funny when I heard it.

Good for him.  I get a little tired of ESPN pushing WBB so much.

:confused: pushing so much?  They're never on sportscenter.  It's limited to the bottom line and games on ESPN2 on Sunday afternoons.  They push WBB as much as they push college hockey.

LOL.  No.  They have rights to broadcast the WBB tourney games, so plan on seeing seeding breakdowns and a bunch of games the next 3 weeks. 

My original post was meant to be more pro-Gottlieb than anti-ESPN or WBB
