Just trying to be hopeful and positive. I don't think UT scores 80+ again when we're there. And Auburn is very unpredictable.
Think they split. Recently Kentucky has always won 1 road game we as fans thought they had no shot at winning
But, but, all those early quad 1 wins. Just ignore how they're playing RIGHT NOW. Oh and Big Ten. (LOL). Signed - Loonardi
I don't think we're at the point yet where I believe this team with this offense has no shot at winning a game anywhere. Defense woes are there, yes, but usually our offense works well.
You do understand that is how resume's work right ? It doesn't matter when you win/lose it only matters where you played and who you played and who won. The NCAA committee eliminated the last 10 games a long while back when handing out seeds.
Just seen that Wagner is expected to play
They can eliminate whatever they want. It's stupid to ignore how a team is playing right now compared to earlier in the year. All it tells me is Wisconsin is unlikely to go far in the tourney (unless they change their trajectory).
His injury was far worse than I knew about when I heard about it on Sources Say the other day. I did not realize this injury was just lingering from way back in the non conference which I knew he was out a couple games but they should never brought him back that soon. Not having Wagner vs Florida and Tennessee really hurt us. Would rather have had him miss non conf games though he did miss UNCW and we know what happened there. I fear he won't ever be 100% for rest of season.
Been telling you for a few days now he should play! I don't expect him to play but 18-22 minutes. We need to make a statement again today, team is definitely ready to rock.
Wow, that's shocking to me. I just assumed he was still out a while. Think Pilgrim said his ankle was still swollen like the size of a softball last weekend. Sure sounded like he would still be out longer.
Still swollen, but he has been chomping at the bits to play. He gets some run today I would say, even at 90% we can use Wagners minutes.
18-43 from 3, thats a ton of attempts. They are up 17 and still shooting early in the shot clock.
It is stupid. It's also stupid for them to put any weight on KenPom fake numbers. But they do.
This has actually been studied pretty extensively and the reason the committee dropped it is that it’s been shown to be statistically meaningless for projecting tournament success despite the conventional wisdom about “peaking at the right time”. Being good all season long is the best predictor, so conference and non-conference results both matter.
As much as I want him to play, do we really want him to play at less than 100%. I'd like for him to get fully healthy, otherwise this just seems like it's going to be a nagging injury all year. Or maybe they just assume it's never going to get 100% this season so doesn't really matter.
Well, all I know is Wisconsin has looked terrible of late. Certainly can't say they've looked good all season.
Michigan St guy got a tech for taunting the Illinois sideline after a 3 but Viscovi can blow a kiss to our bench and no call. Referees today are just terrible. And what's with having to see their close up mug making a call when they go to the monitor? We don't need refs hamming it up like Enrico Pollazo.
I'm telling you Auburn is in a funk and seems to be on a skid. Yeah they beat Alabama, but before that they were looking rough.
