So....What are we ranked on Monday - 12/23/2024?

[#UnleashSean]

Uh...we wouldn't struggle against an Edey-less team.  We wipe the floor with them without Edey playing.

Purdue wouldn't be ranked without Edey.

[Pepe Sylvia]

Strongly disagree. Their 3-point shooting performance was an anomaly (check out their history), as was our poor 3 point shooting. Even so, we rallied Big Time, outplaying them to catch up, and OT was a real possibility. I really do not understand why you wrote the bolded. I am not saying we would win a rematch easily, but I believe we would have more than a 50/50 chance, and that's with Edey.

Yes, I'm saying if the hypothetical scenario had played out, it will feel crummy. I feel awesome because of what actually did occur. We look great and lost in some flukish ways, telling me we are good enough to beat anyone, perhaps even the majority of the time. I would not be as happy in the hypothetical scenario where we look like fraud #1s, but #1 nonetheless.

Chances that we play Purdue again are almost 0 %. There's a high probability that both teams will be 2 seeds minimum if not 1 seeds so they wouldn't match up till the final 4. Similar to last year I believe a hot shooting team would take Purdue out before this rematch was ever met. Marquette has a way more balanced team than Purdue even in the loss. You take Edey off that team and they aren't even in the top 25.

I think there is a high probability we end up in the same region, if we do not have the same seed.

Not true. We may meet them in the EE (not very likely) or FF (very possible). Your "almost 0%" does not make sense.

Big deal to undergrads...braggin' writes ta friends, aina?

old guys too, hey

[MuggsyB]

Purdue wouldn't be ranked without Edey.

Probably not but their guards are very solid players and only Sophs.

Anybody who thinks Purdue would stink without Edey hasn't been paying attention to what Purdue has done under Painter.

[JakeBarnes]

Ranked no1 in our hearts and minds.

I agree they'd still be good.

But as good as Purdue has been under Painter, one Elite Eight in 19 years seems disappointing.

Gotten ridiculously tall guys he can feed it to over and over?

I mean the Hummel, Moore and Johnson team was well rounded, and he had Carson Edwards, I can't think of any other top Guards that have come through the Purdue program off hand.

between Swanigan, Haas, Hammon and Edey it's just a ridiculously tall guy in the post over and over.

What's the verdict?  #3 or #4?

[Goose]

Muggsy

I think they are #3 this week.

[4everwarriors]

3 iz da floor, hey?

[MuggsyB]

Muggsy

I think they are #3 this week.

Agreed.  And now is the time to attack (with relentless fury) Southern, Wisky, Texas, and ND. 

[MU82]

What's the verdict?  #3 or #4?

We'll know in about 16 hours.

[Shooter McGavin]

3 iz da floor, hey?

I think you and Goose are correct.  I think everyone saw what MU did.  No one played 1 and 2 like MU did.  I don't think the loss drops us below both UConn and Arizona.

[Milkshakes]

3. Behind Purdue and Arizona.

Murray keeping Kansas at 2...with Purdue at 3 and Arizona at 1. Really odd ballot.
