Don't agree but in the ridiculous early cbb season it's the best win by a lot. I think Kansas will get beat by Duke tomorrow night so it won't be as nice after that. Hope they run puke when they play them.

Good to get some early respect. Cue The Jeffersons theme song-------"We're Movin' On Up!

I really wish I had tickets for that UNC game!

I could see KU getting a win. Duke doesn't have Bolden, Tatum, or Giles so it should be a real competitive game.

Don't we want KU to win so our win looks better?

[Dalton26]

I hope KU destroys Duke

If you are an iu fan then absolutely, duke isn't on our non conference schedule so who gives a crap if they win. We should want all of our nonconference opponents to kick butt after we beat them. I feel the ipfw game could be a sleeper resume booster. Last year they were rpi (74-committee uses it). They are expected to compete for their league championship this year If they can equal or improve their rpi this year and we beat them that would be a true road game win against a nonconference opponent in the rpi top 75

Hopefully we beat IUPFW. I know we should, but it's a road game and they'll be pretty fired up.

Dalton I'll bet you.

Dalton I'll bet you.

Why would me saying I hope they lose make you think I'd want to bet?

I'll be there. IPFW is a really good team this year. Likely will win conference. Experienced players. Bryson Scott. Konchar. Could be more challenging than expected.

Never mind I have no idea what I was thinking.

I hope Duke wins. Kansas is going to get a high seed because they play in a poor conference, so them losing a lot in preconference can negate that. Plus I really don't like their fans. Actually, it's probably mostly because I don't like their fans

Should be a fun game tonight I think UK wins against MSU.

I think so too.

Hope we're both wrong!

I hope KU rolls Duke. Like others have said it will only benefit IU in the end. I could see Kansas having 5 or fewer losses going into the tourney. They'll probably be a 1-2 seed in the tourney and that'll be a great resume boosting win.

IU has very little wiggle room due to the ridiculously stupid scheduling of 8 games against 250+ teams. IU will have to beat IPFW, Butler, and UNC at home before showing well in the B1G to have a 1-2 seed.
