what would you rather?

[proisu]

dont kill me if think this is dumb question (most of mine are). But,

would you rather
1. win big 12 tourney but bow out second round of NCAA

or

2. bow out in semis of big 12 and make to sweet 16

and none of those answers of win and 16...that is course object and my hopes and thoughts

 

[The_Architect]

Great question, I'd say win the Big 12 tourney.

 

[VikesFan22]

Sweet 16! I think that'd be awesome and I believe this team can do it.

 

[gocubs2118]

Sweet 16. No doubt about it.

 

[keepngoal]

1.

-keep

 

[Cyclonepride]

Sweet 16, as the payoff I think is better in terms of national recognition, and the excitement and hope that generates for the fan base.

 

[MidwestZest]

Good question. Need poll. Win B12 Tourney.

 

[hexodat64]

I would say Sweet 16. Farther in the NCAA's the better.

However if we did win the B12 Tourney, no way we wouldn't at least get to the Sweet 16 with the way we would be playing.

 

[Clones21]

Win Big 12 Tourney.

 

[proisu]

godpoint, dont how to do all those things...thanks

 

[Goothrey]

I think winning the big 12 tourney means more in the long run.

 

[Prone2Clone]

I'll say win the Big 12 tourney because we get another trophy for the case.

 

[cstrunk]

Win the Big 12 Tournament. Especially if it means we beat Texas, Missouri, and then Kansas.

 

[LegendofRodA]

You never said we lose in the Sweet 16, so I am going that route.

 

[ISUCyclones2015]

Sweet 16 without a doubt. More National recognition.

 

[jaretac]

Win the Big 12. Winning a title is better. I would rather win a conference title than to make the final four and end up with nothing.

 

[RING4CY]

I would love to win the Big 12 tournament.

However...

If we were to win the tournament, there would likely be increased expectations of us in the big tournament (especially if winning the Big 12 resulted in us moving up to a 6, maybe even a 5 seed). Thus, resulting in a bigger disappointment to the way the season came to an end if we bowed out in the second round.

My gut tells me I want to see us in the Sweet 16. Especially since if we don't win the Big 12, we remain a 8/9 seed, meaning we would knock off a 1 seed on our way to the 16.

 

[The_Architect]

I don't think there is a wrong answer here. I wonder what The Mayor would say.

 

[DRCHIRO]

No brainer, make a tourney run.

Big 12 tourney.
