They seem to do better in full stadiums!

 

[MILHAWKEYE]

Not a good start!

My bad. Accidentally started a game thread didn’t think anyone else was going to start one. Trying to delete mine.

NIT

Was trying to talk myself into the NCAA tournament being a possibility, but the hill might be too steep.

Ah....getting our asses kicked I see. Hoosiers raining 3s.

 

[trj]

Get it under 10 before half.

What does PM actually contribute?

Have you seen the score don’t think it matters.

Woodsen is dying his goatee.

still within striking distance, can’t give up yet. gotta make a run coming out of the gate the 2nd half.

We need more than Payton to make any kind of comeback. Overall lackadaisical effort. Hard to win on the road though.

Good Heavens, that's optimism!
The NCAA was done like a month ago and nail in coffin blowing a 10-point lead at home to Maryland.

With this loss at Indy (while not shocking, I thought it was one of the games left where they had a chance), the NIT is going to be a challenge!

After tonight, they're 4-6 / 12-9
Then you've got ...
2 losses against Illannoy
Loss at Mich State
Most likely losses at NwU and Maryland ... that's 5 more losses

Toss-ups are home vs Oh-Suck and Vadgers and at Pedo State. Let's hope they get 2 of these 3.

Likely Wins are home vs PSU and Minny.

It's optimistic for them to finish 8-12 / 16-15 before the BTT. They'll likely go 1-1 in BTT and end up barely over .500 at 17-16. Is that enought to get a 6 or 7 seed in the NIT?

 

[Dadman]

Just checked the stats. 28% fg percentage? How is that even possible??

Well, ya know, Fran has mentioned on more than 1 occasion what great shooters Hawks have.

The Kenpom 18-13(10-10) projection feels about right to me. They are going to steal a couple of those games that you think are losses.
