Why are you always such a ****** about this stuff? No one said it was a good thing or that they were happy about it. 

People consider it a "good loss." Even though we were annihilated on our home court. It's the biggest problem with college sports now. Losses don't mean as much anymore. Because you're allowed 15 "good losses." It's a joke.

Brad Davison would have gotten 3 more years of eligibility.

Again, nobody is glad we lost that game or happy about it. The NET rankings were created to get teams to strengthen/diversify their schedules instead of just gobbling cupcakes at home (like Crean's teams used to do). Like any metric, it's not perfect, and a loss that should have disgraced our program out of existence turns into a loss that the tournament selection committee just views as a loss. You don't have to agree with it, but I don't know why you're always making snarky comments toward posters like USPS for simply pointing out how someone else would look at our results.

You would think but you just never know.   I’ve seen results where I thought a team should of skyrocketed for a win and the barely moved and I’ve also seen times where I didn’t think a team would drop much after a loss and they end up sliding down.   I stopped trying to figure it out.  The minute I think I see a pattern and project what will happen a result will come out and be way off what I thought it should be.  I just wait and see each day where teams move

UConn/Xavier tonight and 3 MWC games.

St. Louis has a big one tonight.  They host St Bonaventure.   St. Louis has won enough to get in the conversation for an at-large.

for people that didn’t see it 

I was watching the game happened pretty fast thankfully Moore wasn't hurt worst.

One game? Lol yikes.

Seems awfully light for what happened let alone what could've happened.

UConn down 3 and they miss a layup with 1:12 to go.   Jackson slams the ball down and gets T’d up.

Watched the end of the Kent St vrs Akron. WOW, I don't recall seeing players and fans going at it like that.

Bad night on FanDuel for me. The preseason hyped Bonnies showed up in St Louis, Utah St laying an egg after I sang their praises, and don’t get me started on Akron/Kent st. Wtf was I thinking trusting Groce!?

I hope you didn’t pick Iona.  Siena up 5 with 1:36 to go 

[Uspshoosier]

I would love to see how Roddy would do playing in a power 5 conference.   I’m sure he would kill it but would love to see him on a bigger stage for more people to see how good he is.

Lol no, I thought about them but they haven’t been very good at covering lately. Wouldn’t put it past slick Rick to shave points

Here comes Iona.  Just hit a 3 and are only down 2 with 30 sec to go

Just got home after keeping scorebook  for my school's game tonight.  Watching St. Bonaventure/St.Louis.  Saw the last twelve game minutes or so.  It was one that St. Louis could have really used.  Looking more and more like the only way the A-10 gets two teams in is if Davidson loses the conference tournament.

It's a real NIT league this year.  St. Louis, VCU, Dayton, Richmond, and St. Bonaventure all will likely get consideration for the NIT if they don't win the conference tourney.

Ouch.  Two point game now, though, 20.5 seconds left.
