There may be a lot of that again this year.Oof we will be getting slaughtered again by Alabama this year
Agreed. Bama has A LOT more size than we do, and got beat worse on the boards than we did by Gonzaga. Bama couldn't handle Gonzaga's post tandem either. They blocked a few of their shots early on, but Ike and Huff are a top 5 post duo in the country. Bama's guards are electric...but Gonzaga is a really good team.It’s pretty simple imo
1- Purdue
2- Gonzaga
Was thinking about this today. Last year, we went 12-12 in the regular season (not counting the games against JUCOs and high schools). That was just good enough to get us in the tourney … and that was in a year where the conference was historically great. The conference is not a good this year … nothing can change that now since most the big noncon games are over. So 12-12 is the absolute minimum we have to go. We are currently 0-2 … needless to say, Friday is a big game.
What happens in the tournament has no bearing on this discussion. The conference will not be rated nearly as highly throughout the season and on Selection Sunday. That’s what is relevant in assessing the overall strength of our resume.We'll see about that come march...
Yeah I’m watching this as well. Shocked that Michigan is doing this to them. Thank gawd we’re not playing Michigan this year whew!Man I was so excited for the Michigan Gonzaga game but it’s been a TKO. I wonder if Gonzaga can at least make a little push in the second half.
Also … Dusty May can coach.
Yea they look unreal. Arizona and Purdue and Gonzaga (till tonight) have looked great, too.Yeah I’m watching this as well. Shocked that Michigan is doing this to them. Thank gawd we’re not playing Michigan this year whew!
