rebelhoosier848891 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Yep--either Maryland and MSU should not be that high--- or we should be up there too! Let's just keep winning and eventually they will have to put us back up there. We should be top 20 this week! Quote
rebelhoosier848891 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Let's see---Purdue (aka Little Brother) and The New England Patriots (aka Cheaters) both lose today! What a good day! BtownBanner6, WayneFleekHoosier, Bobman1 and 2 others 5 Quote
HoosierAloha Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 The ending of this Utah @ Washington game has been absolutely awful. There seems to be a stoppage on almost every call. The refs have missed calls both ways but the flow was just totally out of the game in OT. Quote

Not that they care, but I've been unimpressed by Maryland all year. The thing that annoys me is they beat Nortwestern at home in OT and they're called "gritty and tough". IU beat Northwestern by 30 and it's "beating the lower tier teams". Jketch, southsidehoosier, Alford Bailey and 8 others 11 Quote

chitown hoosier Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Yeah I guess losing 3 in a row, 2 at home with one of them being Nebraska has no bearing. Or having no impressive wins just like Indiana but already having 2 b1g losses means that they are better than Indiana. Sigh. All Indiana can do is keep winning and prove these so called "experts" wrong. IUsafety and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote

All Indiana can do is keep winning and prove these so called "experts" wrong. In what world is beating Kansas on a neutral court not an impressive win? Or beating Providence, or beating Louisville? Seriously, I'm starting to be convinced that some of you guys don't think any team has a single quality win, unless they're wearing crimson and cream. Quote

And a lost to Nebraska, who they haven't lost to, and losing twice at home, which again Maryland hasn't done Quote

And if you have seen mich st play recently they are not impressive. It's the Denzel Valentine show and he takes a lot of bad shots. Quote

I wouldn't be surprised if the lose to northwestern the next game either. Quote

Uwe Robb Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 It has always been a pet peeve of mine when they rank a team higher than a team that just got done beating them. I could understand if it was a team that got hot and hit a record amount of 3's or someone had a star player foul out, but that was a good game and teams have been fairly similar all year long. Michigan State wins head to head and still ranked ranked lower. Quote

Michigan State wins head to head and still ranked ranked lower. I agree with this to an extent. I was saying earlier that if OU were ranked above KU after their 3 (?) OT game at Allen Fieldhouse I wouldn't be upset. Maryland is ranked higher than MSU because the game was played at the Breslin Center and it was a close game. That still doesn't change my mind about Maryland. I feel MSU could win @Maryland but didn't think Maryland could win at MSU. Quote

I remember I think Shulman? saying the loser of that game would drop and I thought to myself Why? It took 3 OT's and the home team won. Keeping them 1/2 which is what I think happened at the time was absolutely the right thing to do. Back in my gambling days I knew exactly what home court was worth as far as point spread. I believe it is was around 4.5 at the NCAA level? I think schools like IU/Kansas/Duke would be a little higher, but in general I think that was the number. HoosierAloha 1 Quote
