You and me both my man.

  Right now I would think we would not get a first round bye.  Is it bad that I am more scared to play bad teams than good teams?  

  Eh, I wouldn't go that far.  Most people on the bubble are usually 60-75 in RPI.  It would be almost impossible to get a top 40 RPI with 19 wins.  If we don't win at UM, I think we have to win 2 games in BTT to feel safe, but I think we get in regardless with 19 wins.  Mainly due to who we have beat.  Our bad losses are worse than some of the bubble team's worst losses, but we have superior wins than anyone they would put us up against.  Very few teams remotely close to the bubble have 3 or 4 top 25 wins.  

The only time I hate this argument is when one side acts like you are not a true fan if you don't give your undivided devotion to Tom Crean.  As well as when the other side gives absolutes such as, "I guarantee you he will not win a title".  Really?  How can one guarantee anything?  Mike Davis was 40 minutes from winning one.  If people would just remember that everyone here is an IU fan.  Just because they don't hold the same opinion does not make them less of an IU fan.  Some have higher expectations, and some feel continuity is the only way to get to those expectations.  Just don't question anyone's loyalty when debating this, as well as follow the rules and the mods are cool.  

:yes:  :120:

Charlie, you have been doing well.  Smh.  

What more can Hanner do there?  Tough call?  He stood there for a full 3 steps waiting on the guy.  

I will honestly say, I haven't been as wrong on a game this year in the predictions than this one.  Couldn't be happier!

Prevent offense coming to a home near you.  

Man, this crowd is dead.  Just look at the background of the Free Throws.  That is pathetic.  

Really would prefer Austin in instead of Evan right now.  Both doing their thing today.  Its just size and competitiveness right now.  

Holy Shit!  What a play!  Not a good pass, but great recovery.  

He must really want this game.  Lol

WTF do we pass it to Jeff Howard?  Why?  He is not going to shoot it.  You are setting either yourself or him up for a turnover.  

I said early on I thought we had to hit 8 of 20 3s to win.  Sticking with that.  For the most part our 3s have been good looks.  

Man…  We had one lineup that really got this thing going in the 1st half.  Haven't seen it since.  Not sure why.  

This crowd is awful.  

I know we have 8 turnovers, but we only have like 2 in the last 10 minutes.  Great job of settling down.  Not easy to do without your best player.  

Boom baby!

Easy guys.  Lets get it back on the game.  My day is equally as crappy as all of yours.  Please don't make it worse.  

This is the most alive this crowd has been.  

  Yeah.  Noah is our rebounding, blocks, interior presence at both ends, and a player who usually puts up close to a double double. Don't care what level you are at, you will miss that. 

Ha, I would take VJ and Pritch today.  

So, does anybody really want a rapid reaction today?  Lol, I am about ready to turn this off.  I am at my breaking point for the season.  

Brutal start for Tom Crean?  This is fairly normal.
