Tonight fucking sucked. They had a chance no one thought they'd have and blew it with a horrendous 10-15 minutes. Overall the season was successful in my eyes (and I'd assume most others) and the future is bright.

Go make some noise and have some fun in the NIT.

Fuck Syracuse
They have no fucking business being in the conversation. 12-13 against the top 200. 4 sub 100 losses (including one sub 200 loss).

Fucking mind boggling.

Our resume looks a lot like Syracuse and Tulsa last year. We are basically 4th of 5th out right now, just need some committee quirks in our favor

Theee hours, boys. We have predictably moved back into the conversation without playing a game. Everyone overreacts after an early conference tourney loss. In reality the committee likely didn't even think about it.

I don't think we are in, but it wouldn't surprise me if we are the WTF?! selection this year.

I'll blow every guy on this board to completion if Iowa is in the NCAA Tournament this year. It isn't happening.

Won't blow one guy one time for $9 Billion.

Will blow maybe hundreds of guys for an NCAA bid.

Totally logical.

It looks like your reading comprehension is the thing that isn't logical.

They had a little mention of Iowa during the first half of BTT. Made note of all of their wins against teams projected to be in.
I agree it's a long shot. But fuck it, I would love to be the team that all the pundits bitched about. There's always at least one every year.

#1 Seed in the NIT is a hell of a consolation prize for this team.

Yep. Being officially one of the first 4 out, having a road win over a 5 seed would have been a huge difference. Fuck

Nebrantska-Omaha, Nebrantska 2OT or the Minnesota screw job. Any of those flip and this is an NCAA team. It sucks but whatever.

Going to the tournament is obviously better. But if we make a deep run in the NIT, is it better for the future of this team than a one and done in the NCAA tournament?

Maybe, yes.

Was that already posted or did nolook bow it because he's not from The Metro! and not quick enough?

If it was, I'll GFM.
