“They are definitely a tournament team.”

I think we need maybe 5, possibly only 4 more wins...Where do they come, because we finish out the year with three tough games ??

KSU
@OU
@OSU
AM
@Bay
OU
TT
@KSU
@MU
BAY

toughest games left in order in my opinion

1. @MU
2. @Baylor
3. @K-st
4. @Osu (this game scares me alot)

If we won 4 games I believe we'd have to get to the conf title game to be in. If we win 5 we'd be a lot safer with 1 tourney win but might not have to have it.But we might end up like CU last year without it.One more big win would outweigh a middle team loss but probably not a bad loss. (I count those as TT,OU,or A&M at Hilton.)

Need that Baylor game at home. Still lot of tough road games. If we hold serve at home get one road game, should be fine.

[CycloneErik]

I love March Madness with a passion, but it is so much better with the Cyclones. Games that matter!!!

I think we can beat anyone remaining on our schedule. But I realistically see us taking 5 more and 1 in the big XII tourney. That'd be enough for a 10 seed IMO

[ISUPoker]

Of course Self is going to say that. He can't exactly say "we lost to a terrible team." It's incredibly self serving for him to prop up ISU as much as possible.

Still a lot of work to do to be in the dance, but this was a HUGE first step. GO STATE.

Hope we can pull at least one out at the end.

The Selection Committee won't like a three-game losing streak at the end of the season for Bubble Teams

Why are you assuming we'll lose to Baylor at home? We could sweep them for all I know. We just beat KU and played with them on the road, so I don't think you should count Baylor as an automatic loss.

[LindenCy]

I think we will get at least 6 more conference wins.

I think we will get at least 6 more conference wins.

That could very easily happen, especially if ISU sweeps OU, OSU, TT, and A$M. We would just have to pull off one "upset". Most important thing is for the team to not think about that (leave this to us fans) and just take it one game at a time.

Best example: the ISU team that went to the Elite 8, lost to Drake earlier in that year.

Not that it makes any difference, but this year's Drake team has much more talent than the Drake team circa 1999-2000.

At least 6 wins. Based on how the team played at KU, could see them win at KSU or MU. Based on how they played at UT, expect a loss at least at OSU.

Haha... saw on CBS Sportsline someone posted that KU should not be allowed to make the NCAA tourney because a loss at ISU should disqualify you for a national championship. LOL.

Carolina is out as well then. Losing by 35 to FSU is more worthy of disqualification!

[IHavNoCyCash]

this win outweighs that ****** loss against Drake..another upset would eliminate that UNI loss as they are really struggling...UNI just got killed by Missouri St.

Good for us as they are out of the bubble race.
