sys, post more as this goes along about what we should be rooting for in imminent games.  Who should I want to win between KSU and Texas, and by what sort of spread?

I root for sys.  So the key is to root for as close to the kenpom prediction as possible, so that KSU stays at 30, and expect that continuing to do so will lead to KSU not making the tournament?

That would make sense, but don't root too far ahead because the ratings are dynamic.  Really a LHC Bill Snyder "one game at a time" mentality will see this through.

Right.  That's why I need sys or you to continually make pregame posts so I know how to focus my root.

I agree. I have never figured out that kind of reasoning when it comes to your school.

Cheer for whomever you want for whatever reason you want to, who gives a crap. However, I'm guessing the number of power five schools who finished in the kp top 30 but didn't make the tournament can be counted on one hand with a few fingers to spare for sticking up your ass.

This game already started, in standard def.  I'm rooting for ksu (sys) based on kk's guidance, but some of you people really make me want to root for texas.

basically just lose to all the better teams and beat all the worse ones, winning by as much as possible and losing by as little as possible.  so today was a little disappointing because tech was on track for a nice close loss but then started fouling and lost big, like dumbasses and kstate was on track for a nice big win but then only won by a little bit, like dumbasses.

kenpom has the kstate game at 11 tonight, so anything under that will be a positive, obviously a win would be counterproductive, so it's a bit of a fine line.  nothing like tech's wvu game though, which they're only favored to lose by 3.  you don't want to see them risk getting a top 3 win this early in the season, so really any single digit loss would be fine.  tcu has ou at home and would be well advised to run up the score.  they're favored by 9.
