I think USA Today released a new bracket today and G'town was "on life support." They are 14-14, 5-10 in conference which is SECOND LAST IN THE BIG EAST. Yet, USA Today thinks they are a bubble team. How? Why? In what world is that possible? Because they beat Butler and Creighton?
I think the bubble is weak this year if G'town and Clemson are still being thrown around as possible NCAAT teams. It helps to play in a good conference but like everyone has said, you need to win, too. |

A lot of good things happened this week.
Iowa St wins against Baylor Purdue loses Duke loses twice in one week. Opportunity is there to move up with a win tomorrow. Hopefully we don't blow it. After today, it just proves how hard it is to win on the road. |

Iowa State has played really well since they inserted that freshman center (he didn't even play in our game). They are now 11-5 in the Big 12 and trending towards a 6 or 7 seed.

If we can win tomorrow, I can see us either moving to 11 or 12 fairly easily. We should jump Duke, Florida and Purdue.
Baylor could also be jumped but less likely. Then if we can win out next week while starting at 12, we'd have a really good chance of finishing regular season in the top 10. That would be amazing |

I think we'll handle Houston at home and I don't think UConn has enough weapons to compete. We're a lot better than UCF, but they're unique enough that they could give us problems. |

If Louisville loses today against Syracuse that will be 2 losses this week for them.

Watching NKU-Valpo right now. Norse have a 7 point lead with 5 minutes to go. The arena definitely feels big time. I think many UC fans will be impressed next year.
