I haven't Mred it but I think if Tech loses tonight they end up as the 4 in the Big 12 tourney. #BlueCy

Just lost some respect for Miami of Ohio... taunted the fans after the game, before even going through the handshake line.

To be honest $5 gas might start pushing non-early-adopters over to the EV route (a good thing IMO).

The AI bubble is the only thing that's kept it afloat this long. If that pops, watch out.

Last night simplified things (in a less good way for #Cyclones)... It's now:

ISU W & KU L = 4 seed
ISU W & KU W = 5 seed
ISU L & TCU L = 5 seed
ISU L & TCU W = 6 seed

05.03.2026 17:56 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Assuming I'm correct with this, there are 512 combinations of remaining games:

3 seed = 32 times
4 seed = 128 times
5 seed = 224 times
6 seed = 128 times

I haven't run all the scenarios yet... but I'm fairly certain these are the big ones for #Cyclones #BlueCy:

ISU W, HOU 2 L & KU L = 3 seed
ISU W, HOU 2 L & KU W = 4 seed
ISU W, HOU 1 or 0 L & KU L = 4 seed
ISU W, HOU 1 or 0 L & KU W = 5 seed
ISU L, TCU L = 5 seed
ISU L, TCU W = 6 seed

#BlueCy not to be the bearer of bad news... but IF the Cyclones lose on Sat AND TCU wins the Cyclones fall to the 6 seed in KC

He was missing the skip pass a ton last night. It was open in the corner, and his vision wasn't what it's been all year.

I feel like Momcilovic has taken a serious agressiveness step back. I know that he's having to fight constantly to get open, but he's passed up shots that he'd take early in the season.

So if you are not a 1 seed, you better be named Uconn, or be #1 in KenPom to win it all...

How important is a 1 seed, the last National Champions:
2025 - 1 seed
2024 - 1
2023 - 4 (Uconn #1 KenPom)
2022 - 1
2021 - 1
2019 - 1
2018 - 1
2017 - 1
2016 - 2 (Nova 1 KP)
2015 - 1
2014 - 7 (Uconn 15 KP)
2013 - 1
2012 - 1
2011 - 3 (Uconn 10 KP)
2010 - 1
2009 - 1
2008 - 1
2007 - 1

My Power Rankings #BlueCy before Wednesday's game (spoiler alert Colorado/K-state don't move the needle much). ISU vs. Tech likely to decide who gets the double bye and who doesn't.

The crazy part is, I thought they did better last night, but it was still 67%. Part of that was Pleta being 1 for 4 though, and he's not who we'd have shoot them down the stretch.

Power rankings ahead of Wednesday's games. ISU was 7% behind Tech and has all but closed that gap. Remaining Games:
HOU - HighTier(HT)=2, MidTier(MT)=1, LowTier(LT)=2
AZ - HT=1,MT=3,LT=1
KU - HT=2, MT=2, LT=2
Tech - HT=2, MT=0, LT=3
ISU - HT=2, MT=1, LT=2

My Power Rankings ahead of Saturdays games... Still doesn't like BYU, and they are running out of chances to prove it. All of their wins have been against the bottom 3rd of the conference thus-far.

It's not even out there... it's when he backs his way in from the side, they send a 2nd guy over, and if he's not paying attention or on his A-game, he bounces it so high, they strip him.

I still don't trust Kansas in the tournament. I still think Peterson is fine and he's just being a bad teammate - looking out for his draft stock - and that's going to bite them later. I could be wrong though...

If you're new(ish) to curling and need a friendly primer on what's what - ends, houses, hammers, freezes - we've got you.

My Power Rankings...Hou ahead of AZ mostly because AZ hasn't played much of their "mid-tier" games. Meanwhile Houston has mostly played mid-tier. Same for ISU/Tech
Remaining games:
AZ - HighTier(HT)=2,MidTier(MT)=6,LowTier(LT)=0
Hou - HT=3,MT=1,LT=4
ISU - HT=1,MT=5,LT=2
Tech - HT=2,MT=2,LT=4

Uber eats Bradley Cooper & Matthew Mcconaughey commercial was solid.

I'd bet we will land around 4 or 5. 1 or 2 of them won't drop behind us.

My power rankings after the Wednesday games... BYU had a chance to climb some the last 2 weeks, but they failed, so the math still hates them. On the ISU front, it's because the teeth of the schedule is in front of them.

At 2:30am last night my 1.5 year old decided to just be "awake". So guess who got to sleep in a chair with him.
