What a joke. We should be ranked.

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

I see Georgetown slid on in

[Hutch89 2,939]

Glad we didn't fall too far after the gtown loss. On to the conference!

[ou812dude 3,326]

a win at Nebrasketball would help the cause...let's get'er done, fellas.

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Hey folks, with those rankings, we're in the tourney. And that is all that matters this year. We have lots of young guys who could really become something with experience and a confidence boost. This has been a fun year so far. Let's hope for more fun (wins)!

A win against us is a resume booster. We are a strong team.

[FortWayneHoosier 6,128]

im not too worried about the rankings, i just want to win ball games! being ranked would be nice though

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,375]

Winning big games and being ranked goes HAND IN HAND.  We need more of BOTH!

[LockdownD 2,238]

The second season starts Wednesday at Nebraska. It would be great to start out with a road win. I really like this team. Really fun group to watch and support. They're capable of doing some damage in the B1G and that will get us in the post season. We are what we are, so we need to play to our strengths and find those open shooters.

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

Yea, win this thing tomorrow and we are REALLY on the cusp. I agree, we are no where near the push over we were last season. Average offensive game tomorrow mixed with our average defense but improved rebounding and this game is ours. 

 

I only half way care if we are ranked for the sake of bragging to my buddies but IU NEEDS to be ranked if we are going to pick up heat again on the recruiting front. We can't continue to be outside of the top 25 and expect to land burger boys. All we will get is the Hoosier faithful that grew up in the stat.

I'll leave this here:

@Justin_Albers: Joe Lunardi has Indiana as the first 10th seed in his latest Bracketology. #iubb

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

Good.. now let's lock a ranking up by taking it Izzo. Better be ready for some more physicality.

we will have to beat ohio st also to get ranked

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

Possible but if Georgetown gets to grab a ranking by beating us then I estimate with two straight road wins and already receiving votes beforehand will do it at 25. Could be wrong but we will see.

I only say that because the new poll wont come out till the following Monday after both of the games. If we beat Michigan state we would prob b ranked but if we then lose at home on sat to ohio st we wont b

[bleedhoosier 3,627]

Ahh. Yea got ya. Don't know what I was thinking. We will probably just have a few more votes this Monday

[FKfootball 1,046]

We will be ranked at some point. A lot of Big Ten teams struggle to score. This bodes well for us.

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

Just win games, then it will take care of itself.
