Wouldn't that apply to just about everybody?
Why do you think I hate everyone?

Don't you have a home?
in other news, i'm "in the mix" to be banging scarlet jo and brooklyn decker later tonight.
One positive thread doesn't make up for all crap I have had to read from him.
I don't understand how Mizzou could be a bubble team. Well, if there were 75 undefeated teams. Otherwise, they're dancing. They're an outstanding team.
Ignore my handle for a second...
I posted this because I thought it was interesting that despite the doom and gloom on this board, ISU is in the same position as many other Big 12 teams in making the tournament. That's not to say they WILL, but they haven't done anything to kill their chances at this point.
I think Pollard hired Hoiberg for the long term...it's at least a 5 year project to see if he can grow into the HC role. So any success ISU has right now in Year 2 is gravy. Fans aren't that patient, but realistically this is about where most expected them to be right now.
With UT and OU. Not sure how he classifies Missouri as a "bubble team", though.
Big Ten, Big 12 could flex muscles come NCAA tourney bids - Andy Glockner - SI.com
Didn't anyone actually read what was written in the article?
"Don't freak out Missouri fans. I just wanted to use this week as a platform to elaborate on the surging Tigers."
He pretty much said that they appear to be a lock but he wanted to talk about them individually since there are questions about who they have played so far.
It's his column...he can write about anything he wants. It just seems a silly reason to put an undefeated team on the bubble. How badly would Mizzou have to do in the conference season to end up on the bubble? 7-9? 6-10?
Wouldn't "locks" like KU, KSU, or Baylor ALSO be on the bubble with that record?
Wow! Someone is MAKING you read his posts? That is unfortunate.
Man you are dense.
EDIT: By the way, a 6-10 Big 12 team this year won't be on the bubble and won't get in. I don't care what they did in the non-con. It's doubtful that a 7-9 Big 12 team gets in.
That's my point...if Missouri goes .500 in the conference they end up with something like a 22-9 record. They'd be in for sure. Anything less than that, and they're probably out (like you say).
I don't get how they could be "on the bubble." There not a conference W-L record that leaves them in limbo.
I think he was making fun of you because you math doesn't add up. I believe everybody in the big12 is playing 18 conference games instead of the 16 you are applying.
Ah, you're right. I am dense. I'm so used to having conference games add up to 16...
