How many from 6-10 can match our quality wins?
I'm asking because I haven't bothered to check, but that has to be considered as well.

We deserve where we are right now, but we're a top 8 quality team, especially as the team is starting to gel right now.

Most are comparable. I'd say we have better wins than gonzaga, arizona, and Villanova though

Good enough.
I've got no problem with the idea of needing another big win to deserve it. Most of us in the 7-14 range are probably pretty interchangeable, and 2/3 seeds face about the same road in the tournament anyway.

Sweep next week, though, and we really deserve it.

Guys we need to stop worrying about our ranking and concentrate on Kansas.
We need 100% fan focus if we are to stand a chance on Monday.

I better hit the gym to prepare. If we lose, it won't be because of me!

I have already started drinking Banquet Beers to get ready. On Beer #8 today, should be set for the night after 15.. Maybe an 18 pack?? IDK.

I promise not to miss a free throw Monday, and won't get T'd up. OK, the GF might toss me if we get behind and I melt down.
Dreading those K-ewww chants.

I just hope we are not in the top ten. That is not good for us.

Regardless of where we are on Monday, if we go 2-0 with wins @ Kansas and over Tech this next week, we should crack the top 10 for Big Monday @ Oklahoma. Then of course if we lose that game people will blame it on the top 10 ranking instead of the difficulty of beating good teams on the road.

My guess is #12 ISU goes into just another gym to take on #7 We Doth Not Boo University.

I'm going to guess around 14. Why? Because if we are top 10, this team will surely **** down their leg. However, if we are in the mid-teens, we can beat anyone. Gotta keep that chip. This group of fellas doesn't know how to win being the hunted.
