Glad they won. it literally makes no difference but 18-13 sounds way better than 17-14 lol 

also get to avoid PU in the second round next week if it were to come to that.

I need someone smarter than me to explain the net disparity between us and MSU, when we literally have the same resume now…they are 4 spots ahead on SOS, both have 4 quad 1 wins. 
 
Im not saying we should be in, but why do the metrics love them so much.

IU is not a tourney team. MSU should also not be a tourney team. 
 

They have looked like **** all season long except for beating Baylor by 30 in December.

Ware Carried. Good for him.  Glad for the kids. 
 

If we get to play Purdue again they will piece us by 20 again easily.  
 

oh well. 

We'll either be the 6 or 7 seed, depending on what Iowa does tonight. If we had lost, we would have been 8 or 9.

I agree. Just trying to understand what about  those two resumes warrants a 70+ difference in NET, and a 9 seed projected for them haha.

For everyone at the beginning of the season that argued metrics don’t matter. We have the same record as MSU but they’re considered a lock and we have to run the table. I would also argue that Woodson’s desire to have a full 2nd unit in the first half of the season was a result of this.

We’re not a tourney team (barring a miraculous first time BTT win, bit it sucks that they couldn’t have this run earlier on.

Say what you will but 

- beat Wisc and MSU at home

- won in that joke of a barn gym and manhandled UM both as underdogs. 
Do that earlier and we’re probably in consideration
