This thread is pretty good.

ISU could go 12-6 in conference and not get a quality win in those 12. ISU could in theory win 9 non con wins and not have a single quality win in the bunch. So they could go 21-9 and miss the tourney and be 0-9 against quality opponents.

I know it won't happen, so don't all freak out saying you will win all the games in Hilton...

Iowa could win 20 games and not have a single quality win. You can do that with just about everyone's schedule.

this happened to you last year...

A tourny isn't obligational but it's a standard for every teams schedule and outside of KU it's a pretty average tourny. I guess I don't see upgrading your tourny from bad to average as much effort into improving your schedule strength.

I guess I wouldn't consider it an average tournament. It's actually among the best ones.

This is exactly what I'm fearing. I think it's what every team hoping for an at large bid should fear.

All because it has kansas in it?

Every other team is unranked

UMKC would beat UMES by 15+

When you reach a point in the thread where you're arguing about which 4 initial school would beat which it's time to change the direction of the thread.

 

[CycloneErik]

Really? That's what you're going with? Have you watched UMKC this year? They were down by 30 (57-27) points at the half to Nebraska-Omaha.

And honestly, who cares?

Nobody should. It's not like we're debating whether Kansas or Michigan State adds more to the SOS.
UMKC vs. Omaha vs. UMES? Who cares? They're just teams that get beat.

We had quality wins against the following tournament teams: Wisconsin, ISU, Minnesota, and Illinois

Nice try though.

 

[alarson]

Lots of people showed up to watch this game at least

 

[SplitIdentity]

I laughed tonight at all the Hok fans at the bar I was at that were cheering loudly after every dunk. They then told me they they expect to be a No. 4 seed for the tournament, which I couldn't let go. I asked them if that meant UNO deserved to be like a 5 seed.

even we we would've filled up that stadium. Poor showing even on a Wednesday against this team.

Are there two CyHawk7's?

I think Clones21 starts more Iowa threads than anyone else here, and maybe even more than anyone on HN.

Lol seriously? ISU fans should have a little more confidence by now for basketball.

Incorrect.

 

[JohnnyFive]

Sorry, that's too much. UNO should be a 6 seed, that's probably more like it.

Our attendance really hasn't been that great this year for basketball....... Sold a lot of tickets but not a lot of people have actually showed up yet.

Thank you for your correction.

And my retort is, they would be if they were eligible for the tournament.
