By sunday afternoon we need to be

For the last time, how we played down the stretch doesn't matter anymore. Last 10 games isn't a criteria for admittance to the dance anymore.

Then why are we caring so much about today's games? Since it's just one of 32 it really shouldn't matter that much, right?
 
Listen I don't think we are getting in but you don't really know what you are talking about. A&M is 24-7. They might very well be te best team in the SEC.

Duke was at full strength. The team they had then is the team they have had all year. Amile Jeffereson red shirted.

The Uconn win right now is huge. If they lose today, we will be ahead of them. St. Bonaventure is a team thats a virtual lock.

There's a lot of garbage resumes out there. You are focusing on ours, when we have beaten more top 50 teams than just about any other bubble team. That's why people think theres a slight glimmer of hope.
bonaventure is not a lock at all there borderline in out just like us since there ooc schedule with regards to wins over good teams is pretty non existent
 
Amazingly, I think we have a decent chance if we are within striking distance. There just isn't anybody that we are competing with for those last few spots that have the wins we do. Throw in the eyeball test, and I don't think we are matched. Either way it's still maddening we put ourselves in this position.

Here's to redemption from getting screwed in 06.
 
the gtown loss at minimum should be thrown out as that was 2 days after ncaa decided to move up the suspension.

trying to be objective i have us just barely in most likely in dayton with about 7 spots i consider the bubble in side with 1 more spot potentially opening up if temple loses before the final.


teams i have in play:
vcu
wichita st
syracuse
connecticut*
oregon state
tulsa*
monmouth
st marys
michigan*
vandy
st bonaventure
valporaiso
sd state
temple*
 
For all of those certain we're out, I'll wager $50 American that we're not, to the first one of you to accept. I'm about to find out who's serious about this. Money talks, BS walks.

Edit: hurry, before one of the ***s bans it and/or me!! Some friday night fun brought to you courtesy of CaptainJ! Yes, there is another AC/DC song that describes this, from the Bon Scott era.

it I'll take the bet. If I have to pay $50 for Cuse to make the tourney I'll do it.

Right on! We're having our own version of celebrity death match tonight! I guess it's a long match, being it doesn't end until Sunday.

Of course it's not as fun having celebrity death match with a poster whose screen name I like so much. I guess I will be raging AT 'Cuse if I lose. ;)
 
It comes down to if they give us some lift for the games without JB or not. If they do we're in. If not we're likely just outside.

Why does Michigan not match our best wins?
 
CaptainJ Moneytalks is from the Razors Edge album...Brian Johnson era. 1990.

Indeed! Believe it or not, it may be my favorite AC/DC album because of the memories involved with it when I first heard it. I even dug the non singles like "Mistress For Christmas" and "Fire Your Guns", and I just meant my bet qualified me to be labeled by another AC/DC title...I was hoping someone here would remember/guess it... "Big Balls" ;) Pretty creative word play from Bon Scott, unlike musicians today who can just be beyond vulgar without an ounce of creativity associated with it, you know?

"Some balls are held for charity, and some for fancy dress..."

(This song works well for celebrity death match build up!! I could have it playing as I entered the venue and strolled toward the ring!)

 
CaptainJ I get what you were going for now with the Big Balls reference. Razors Edge is not close to the best AC/DC album but was a return to form for them. The 80s albums were uneven after For Those About To Rock. I did love Heatseeker, off Blow Up Your Video. Another good track on Razors Edge is Are You Ready?
