Watching WSU and while they aren't really scoring well....they are crazy on defense....we might not score 30

And Indiana State won on the road at UMKC 74-63

Can you imagine any team from a power conference reaching the Final Four the previous year, returning a substantial part of the team, starting the next season 10-0, and NOT being rated in the Top Ten?

Don't get me wrong....I'm happy Wichita is doing well and is gaining recognition. More than that, I'm really jealous when I see their filled arena and all the excitement. And I haven't heard anyone complain about their being rated #12. But if anyone can name another team matching my first paragraph, I'll buy you a drink before the next home game . . . at Sully's.

Final thought.....how many times did I hear during the WSU game that Kentucky and other big programs were playing their first true road game this weekend? Must be nice. But again, we're losing to bad teams at home so it shouldn't bother me.....but it's not fair.

Embarrassing watching the Marquette-UIPUI game today. Are we really that bad that we get beat by UIPUI at home. Come on guys, pick it up, most of us are still behind you.
