It is almost as if he foresaw the Illinois upset over Kentucky, he even alluded to that match-up when asked about upsets.
Agree. BIG10 is so strong. U play ranked team every week infront of a huge crowd. Tougher than any other conference.
the Question is....are they so strong/underrated that Illini beats Kentucky? Or, Mich beats Louisville? Or, Neb beats Kentucky? Or, PennSt beats Pitt, Or, Minnie beat Baylor? Or, OSU beats GTech/Louisville? Or, does Purdue beat Pitt? Is the ACC, Big12, & SEC so overrated that they don't measure up to their seed? Or, is that just those who weren't conf champs? IE does Louisville, Kentucky & Texas do well but not Baylor, Pitt & Florida?
12/2 matches to watch
4pm San Diego vs Rice...rooting for RICE since they've upset Texas @ least 1 time ea year for multiple years now, they haven't yet achieved that this year.
430pm Kansas vs Oregon...will tell us a lot about Big12 Conf teams & Pac12 teams as well.
7pm Ole Miss vs Creighton...Might give us insight to Creighton, but more just sharing love to both clubs.
12/3 matches to watch
4pm Tenn vs NC (big test for ACC & SEC)
4pm Marquette vs Purdue (projected)
430pm Stan vs ISU
430pm FSU vs KSU
6pm Miami vs Florida (projected). Good measure for the ACC
630pm Pepp vs UCF
7pm Neb vs Campbell
7PM OR vs Creighton (projected)
7pm SDakota vs Minnie (local women playing)
730pm Baylor vs WashST (projected)
8pm RICE vs Texas (projected)
12/4 matches to watch
4pm Kentucky vs Illini (projected)
5pm Tenn vs OSU (projected)
5pm Louisville vs Mich (projected)
6pm Pitt vs PennSt.(projected)
7pm Neb vs FSU (projected)
7pm Stan vs Minnie (projected)
8pm BYU vs Utah (projected)
9pm UCLA vs UCF (projected)
He’s always pessimistic lol
I think he is constantly a salesman...selling the how hard we've got it...how great we are story to everyone who is buying it.
Fact is, Neb should have beaten Stanford, Utah, & Minnie and made a better showing against Wisconsin in both matches as well as against OSU.
Given the likelihood of outcomes, (using RPI rankings)
Neb will have to face Campbell(# 95), FSU(# 19) & Kentucky(# 6) to get to the Quarters..It is entirely plausible that # 47 KSU upsets # 19 FSU & # 30 Illini upsets # 6 Kentucky, making an even easier path for Neb.
Purdue has to go through # 67 IllSt., # 16 Marquette, # 11 BYU to get to the quarters...It is entirely plausible that # 20 Utah will upset # 16 Marquette, but that isn't a large gain of easiness for Purdue.
OSU has to go through # 209 Howard, # 28 Tenn/# 29 NC, & # 8 GTech, which is only very very slightly easier than Nebraska's path, and then they have to play the winner of Louisville's bracket to move on to the Final 4, where I would rather have had to go through Texas or Pitt.
Speaking of Pitt...their 2nd round will likely be PennSt. who has traditionally had their number.
It is possible to have a 6 out of the final 8 be B1G teams, and that is without Michigan upsetting Louisville or Illini upsetting Kentucky.
@@robertevans2450 yup you said it well
And he always get the top recruiting classes imagine how pessimistic he would be with a more normal squad
