Play-in games? We are talking Play-in games?

The "best 14-11 team in the country" that has "the best 1-12 in the Valley" should
not be worried about play-in games!

No offense to BU and DU, but if there ever was a year to take only the top 8 to Arch Madness, this would be it.

(I don't think that should ever happen, btw.)

A BIG difference between 7th and 8th this year. Your reward for 8th is a Thursday late afternoon game followed by the first game Friday... And it's against the Shox.

ISUr is a 9 pt. dog tonight. I hope they don't win, but I think they cover.

I don't even think they will cover. ISUr does not match up well with the Aces. I hope I'm wrong but the last time they met in Normal the Aces made ISUr look silly.

More than likely we're staring at 4 straight losses in a row, the team has essentially raised the white flag on the season sadly.


Maybe...or just going through a poor stretch of play right now. You need to treat that @MSU game as a must win game this weekend.

Not sure if I'm allowed to post on here or not since we're not a day or two away from coming off a fresh win... but I found this funny...

You do realize that just three posts above his, you managed to have back to back posts to "get things off your chest."

You're such a freakin hypocrite that you can't even get it straight when you try and call someone out.

Let go of the mouse, come out of your parent's basement, and join the rest of society. You might actually like it.

He thinks I get worked up over him, like he matters in my life. I post here to interact about Valley hoops. I have a family, a professional job, and a head coaching position in a different sport.

His life revolves around posting on message boards, as evidenced by the 23K+ posts on Shockernet, most everyone elses does not.

The real test will come after tonight's loss.

I'm curious to know your posting ratio in regards to anything related to me vs. anything related to the Redbirds. I bet it's at least 15:1. I'm thinking you probably dream about me at night too. It's unhealthy and unnatural. Hopefully you'll grow out of it some day.

Interesting what your "professional job" entails and how you have time to come on here every 15 minutes. You are building up quite a high post per day count as well.

Head coach of what? 6th grade girls soccer?

Interesting how you're "online" minutes after anyone posts about you. Confirms you sit in a basement waiting for anyone to discuss your name.

Just don't do it 3 times in a row guys... we've all seen that movie and how it plays out.

The inconsistency of the ISUr team makes you want to avoid betting on them at all costs. You never know which team will show up.
