    2025-26 Schedule

    Mississippi State, Purdue, Iowa, 3 games at Players Era. That’s a good slate. Would be cool if we got one more major conference opponent at a neutral site or to come to Hilton, but I wouldn’t be shocked if those are our 6 good non-conference matchups and then we’ll have 7 lower level buy games.

    2025 Transfer Options

    Imagine being this hyperbolic about a player I’m guessing you’ve watched only a YouTube highlight video of.

    Always funny when people tell on themselves. Tell us, what makes you think Jackson is more athletic than Mulder?

    He just completely commanded the game against Missouri for 40 minutes. I think he'd be just fine.

    Ultimately, I don’t think anyone else really qualifies for that last 9-seed spot. Other options are Baylor, Utah State, Arkansas, West Virginia, Oklahoma. None of their resumes screamed out to me as being significantly better than Drake so I took a risk on the resume with the gaudy record.

    2025 Bracketologies

    First year doing this hobby as a father, so time is a little more tough to come by with updates here during championship week. But here is my final bracket projection for the tournament. I have Iowa State as the final 3-seed, but I wouldn't be surprised if Texas A&M is ahead of ISU, which...

    2025 Bracketologies

    We could very well end up as a 4 but all January and February, everyone says “ignore Palm and Lunardi, they’re awful at this!” Then Lunardi and Palm move us to a 4 and everyone flips out. Calm down people.

    2024-2025 MBB computer projections thread

    I believe I also read that of the 12 committee members, there are 7 new members this year, so their decision-making process might not match what's been done the last few years.

    I know they send you emails but why post it here if it’s inaccurate? It’s just misinformation at this point.

    *** Official #10 IOWA STATE vs Kansas State Game(Day) Thread ***

    Saw we're wearing gold again. Feels like we're completely fazing out the white/cardinals jerseys we wore so much last 5 years. Wonder if we'll get a new cardinal jersey next year to match the new whites/golds of this season.

    Purdue losing to Illinois tonight certainly helps our hopes for a 3-seed. Win tomorrow and root for Missouri to beat Kentucky. Puts us in a better spot for a 3-seed. Root for Texas A&M or Texas Tech to get upset tomorrow as well.

    2025 Bracketologies

    Put together what the committee's order was during the early reveal on 2/15, along with each team's losses at that time and losses since. Safe to say we've been passed by Michigan State, St. John's, Wisconsin, and Texas Tech. It's also possible Texas A&M and Purdue have now dropped below us...

    Emotional Investment

    The internet is a cesspool sadly. Even with myself, I've noticed how much calmer and less negative I am when I'm at games and don't go online during them versus watching at home on my couch. Internet breeds negativity.

    Postgame video: T.J. Otzelberger's postgame press conference after loss to BYU

    We called a timeout at the end of the 4th quarter to get Jefferson the near and-1 layup, where he instead made two FTs to tie. It's ok to be upset about the result of the game, but at least be factual in your complaints. They called timeout three times, it worked once. Calling a timeout to stop...

    2025 Bracketologies

    No if we lose out or go 1-2, we could definitely fall to the 4-line and drop to Denver. But our results don't happen in a vacuum; other teams will drop games too. Also unlike last year when it was Omaha or Memphis/Pittsburgh for 1st weekend sites, I don't see much of a difference between...

    2025 Bracketologies

    My bracket and resume comparison link after the weekend's games. Some bracket notes: The top 6 has separated itself at this stage. Would be really surprised if seeding order isn't Auburn, Duke, Houston or SEC 2 for the 3rd 1-seed, the other for the 4th, and then SEC 3/SEC 4 for the top two...

    Saw UConn at 13 and thought what the hell? Then saw "Ratings carry over from season to season". Kenpom has UConn at 36, Torvik has them at 37, EvanMiya at 25. How do you have UConn at 13 and not wonder if your model might need to be recalibrated a bit before going live with it Nate?

    2025 Bracketologies

    My updated bracket headed into tonight's Tuesday slate of games. ISU and other random notes: Keep rooting against Michigan State, Wisconsin, and Texas A&M. Wouldn't be bad if St. John's took one more loss either if you want to be a 2-seed. It's going to be more and more difficult to keep...

    Next years roster

    Is there a reason Pleta wouldn't come in as a freshman? I know he'll be 21 but does that matter?
