Guys and girls,
Once I look carefully at the brackets, I think it wasn't quite as bad as we thought. Wichita State can take care of Kentucky for us. That opens things up. We have a difficult but reasonable path to the elite eight. We can only hope right? That got me really excited when I realized Wichita State may play Kentucky. Them being underseefed could be awesome for us.
 
We are 1-5 in our last 6 NCAA Tournament games. And Coach Cronin has lost 4 straight when coaching. Need to turn that around tomorrow. A loss would be the 2nd straight year our SRs graduate with just 1 NCAA Tournament win in their careers. We've been able to reverse a few trends this year, it'd be nice to turn the NCAA troubles around.

I understand there is a luck aspect to the tournament but 1-5 in our last 6 is not a good look. That's terrible. Middle Tennessee has more than that
 
Have had the feeling all day that we're to to kill them.

They hung with or beat teams just as good or better than us this year. Hopefully good UC shows up today and we don't fall in love with the 3 or I think we're in trouble. They definitely aren't a bad team.
 
I wish I had that feeling. Or felt optimistic

I think the worst thing for people who don't see KState much to see was them scoring 95 on Tuesday. But that's not who they are. We will make life extremely difficult for them. Iwundu won't just run straight to the hoop from the 3 point line for a dunk in the halfcourt. They won't shoot 25/31 from 2 with 24 made FT on top of that. If Washington AND Clark not only get in foul trouble, but get in it to the point where they barely play, we might be in trouble. But that's not very realistic. It would be really nice if Kevin Johnson hit 2-3 3s. He can't just not score.

They beat Baylor, who is 5-6 in their last 11 games. They beat Oklahoma State before they hit their stride (Oklahoma State won later in the year at KState). What am I missing? And they also lost by 30 to Oklahoma at the end of the year.

I should have rephrased it. Im just not confident when it comes to teams I root for and tournaments

That they have the ability to beat good teams. It's not exactly as if we have an eye popping resume to hang our hats on. We got waxed twice by the best team we played and if there was 2 more minutes probably would have lost the other time.
