A stat that worries me...

[Scouter]

8-0 vs play-in teams (ISU, Drake, E'ville, InSU), but only 2-8 vs. top 6 teams (not counting us, of course).

BU has shown it can beat the teams that it's supposed to beat, even on the road. But that's scary that we only won two games against the teams we're probably going to have to take out this weekend.

I think BU can still win three games in St. Louis, but that stat isn't exactly reassuring.

I agree, and I think that's the biggest knock against us. I hope we're maturing and can close out big games.

Yes, but remember, it's very hard to beat a team three times, ie. UNI, Creighton, and MSU. We do have that going for us on Friday against UNI.

Yeah, I agree, but sometimes it feels like our players go into desperation mode well before they should.

I guess Drake has that going for them if they play SIU on Friday

I understand your point, but it's still scary going into the tourney knowing we won only twice in ten tries against the teams that aren't playing Thursday.
