I am worried about neutral site games. Really haven't seen how we play against top talent at a neutral site, other than ND.

ND, and @Iowa made me feel good about our chances in a tourney game.

 

I am definitely not looking past Michigan or whomever we play Friday, but Purdue should be our first big test. The way we let them back in the game at home. Could be a payback game at a neutral site. Should be a great atmosphere though. IU/Purdue in Indy!!

Interesting read on foreign trips and pay for play... (Hint: UL and Minny both involved)

last year when they weren't going to make it anyway

Last year.  Most people have them right around a 10-seed this year from what I have seen.

What I have seen is this game vs Pitt is a must win or out scenario.

i think it will depend on how the committee looks at the games beihiem was suspended. My take is it shouldn't matter but others say it should be a factor

I agree, it should not matter. It was,this team afterall.

That would be my opinion.  But Katz/Greenberg both said that they think both are in regardless of what happens on their podcast and Andy Bottoms has them as a 10-seed right now, which is very much on the right side of the bubble.

@espnandykatz
Selection committee chair @soonerad on @Cuse_MBB 4-5 record w/o @therealboeheim: "To pretend he's not a difference maker is a mistake."

Seeing this quote from the chairman makes me feel they think it matters. What the hell was the point of the NCAA suspending him if in the end they won't judge the team while he was out

[Trish]

I'm ready for Friday!

[Trish]

Side note: if we win Friday, do we play on CBS or CBS Sports Network on Saturday? I'd hope it's CBS.... And not their "premium" channel

Cuse should stay in the press Pitt is rattled

My tip is for all to pick them to win it. Every year! ;)

[Brass Cannon]

So if their HC matters how come Gards gotta pay for Ryan's bad losses?
