Right. Except the expectation with this team early in the year was a possible Final Four and likely Elite Eight. If the minimum expectation with a team dripping with as much talent as this group is another Sweet Sixteen then why are we wasting our time? And I don't understand your last sentence. Are you saying no program should have Final Four expectations? Duke or Kentucky fans this year are stretching to think they have a top-four program?

Didn't Vonleh's team show how meaningless big wins in the Hall are to the committee? Especially if you can't win away and neutral games. And that may be a poetic idea, but statistics show you're much more likely to make a Final Four with a better seed.

And if they don't? And should we be "in the mix" or should we be "clear high seeds"?

Maybe our players should have been playing to win.

We'll win this game by 30 and everyone will pretend Wake Forest was a fluke and that we expected Duke to beat us by forty then act confused when Northwestern and PSU beat us.

Why do you think they got beat? Do you think it will happen again? Why do you think we were beat again? What changes would you make to fix it? What changes do you think the coaching staff will make to fix it? What makes you think that?

You can't pin a decade of poor defense on the coach?

Oh yeah. I forgot the first half of the year doesn't count.

The lowered rpi and bad loss won't hurt our seeding which will hurt our chances? Oh. Why even bother winning these games anyway? Let's just skip to the tournament!

I guess you can't argue that. If this team beats Duke at Cameron it will be hard to get upset about a bad game.

Who is going to bother watching those games?

If there was ever proof this team is in a worse place than ever... They poured out Rebel's glass to half empty.

Yeah, then we could have quality losses!

Watching a man bleed to death after they move away the I-Beam that crushed him and bifurcated his body at the waist is less painful than that game.

At least I don't have to worry about interrupting family time watching any more games.

Garbage. Just absolute garbage. It's every year.

Yeah I'm getting pretty tense about it now. I have a bad feeling...

All announcers are bad. At least Walton is entertaining.

Love to watch Christian Westford

Everyone but Creighton has been under 50%.

Looks like 100% of people are going to get "leads at the half" wrong in the pickems

I believe the thought is; this is the fourth game of the season, but they look just like last season.

Lei-in.

Troy killed that small child.

We look awful. But I love this commentary team. Walton + guy-who-hates-Walton can call all our games.
