Nah, we're trash by pulling our starters and surrendering before the final horn.


Brilliant mind.

Thought the same thing. We pulled starters and they get 9 points in the final minute from theirs shooting threes.


Just when I thought I couldn't think less of Miller (Sean), he has their starters shooting 3s at the end. Winning by 15 still will make the committee look favorably about you. 22 is just classless

Totally disagree.

The problem is the metrics are so important, and they matter whether the margin is 2 or 40.

If I was on the wrong side of the bubble I’d try to win 100 to 0.

Then IMO you would be trash as well. That is weak shit. I’m glad our program is not built like that.

Climbing an extra 2-3 spots in the NET is huge for them.

If it came down to getting in or not getting in you’re insane if you don’t think it matters, especially financially, int this day and age.

But go ahead, that’s a nice high horse you’re riding.

Let me put it this way:

If you were down to your last decent opponent and a 35 point win put you in but a 7 point win didn’t, you would call off the dogs? GTFO.
